Riley Gaines fired back to USA Today Palitist Nancy Armor, who defended Simone Biles after the Olympic gymnast fired a personal attack on the former NCAA swimmer.
Armor painted Biles as a master of the transsexual community when the American gymnast called Gaines a “bully” for her fight to protect women’s and girls’ sports. The Spaloner also claimed, “there is no scientific evidence that trans -fun female athletes have a physical advantage over cisgender female athletes” while striking out of Gaines.

Armor asked readers to be more like Biles than Gaines.
Gaines torn apart Armor’s argument in the latest episode of Outkick’s “Gaines for Girls” podcast.
“She’s almost inexperienced as they come, true. She’s been Frontrunner for USA Today, at least to discriminate girls,” Gaines said. “Not even just it actually. I would say it’s worse than that. To be ashamed, publicly humiliating girls like myself to oppose this. To oppose having to remove naked in front of a man.
“She has long proved to be completely indelible and should not have a job with USA Today. But I guess that’s what the appeal is, or at least what they think the appeal is.”
Gaines then tore into the alleged “scientific proof” that disproved that men have a physical advantage over women and girls in sports.

“Are they aware of how stupid this sounds? How infectual it is, how completely wrong it is to say that men do not have a physical advantage on average compared to women,” Gaines speculated.
The whole feud triggered over the weekend when Biles went after Gaines over the former Collegial athlete who questioned a softball player in high school who won the mining championship in Minnesota.
“@Riley_gaines_ You are really sick, all this campaign because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser,” wrote Biles on X. “You need to uplift the trans community and maybe find a way to do sports inclusive or create a new Avenue where Trans feel safe in sports. Maybe an urge category in all sports !!
“But instead … You are bullying them … One thing is definitely that no one in sports is safe with you around !!!!!”
Gaines responded to Biles’ attack.

“This is so disappointing. My roof is the least controversial acquisition of the planet,” wrote Gaines in response to Biles’ post. “Simone Biles is a man-apologist at the expense of young girls’ dreams? Didn’t have it on my bingo card.
“Maybe she could compete in Pommel Horse and Rings in 2028.”
