Former University of Kentucky swimmer shares 'extreme discomfort' at having to change alongside Lia Thomas because of her 'different parts' and blasts NCAA bosses for letting the trans athlete compete

A former college swimmer who competed against Lia Thomas has told of her 'extreme discomfort' at changing next to the transgender athlete because of Thomas's 'different parts.'

In a new interview with Tucker Carlson on the host's Fox News Digital show, former University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines accused organizers of not disclosing that Thomas would be using the female changing facilities.

She told Carlson on the latest edition of 'Tucker Carlson Today: 'That's not something we were forewarned about, which I don't think is right in any means, changing in a locker room with someone who has different parts.'

The 2022 graduate of the University of Kentucky continued: 'So not only were we forced to race against a male, we were forced to change in the locker room with one.'

Gaines went on: 'And so then we're sitting there not even knowing who to talk to, who to complain to, because this kind of all happened behind the scenes and very discreetly.'

Speaking to Carlson, Gaines accused the National Collegiate Athletic Association of a 'huge lack of accountability' in the protecting the integrity of women's sports.

Where were we older men who should have walked in there and made things right for our daughters. I include myself in this. Where was I? That creep should have been scared to death to show up on campus ever again, in any form.

The left suddenly doesn’t mind sexual harassment.

I think you are wrong. A few women (very few) push gender “wokism.” Almost all of us like being women and don’t want anything to do with “wokism,” which is NOT the same thing as wanting an equal playing field academically and professionally, since after all many of us are also the breadwinners for our families.

“Wokism” is nothing more than evil men manipulating vulnerable women to achieve a political agenda that only benefits those evil men.

For Crying Out Loud! Those ‘different parts” Are MALE PARTS- and that makes HIM a “HE” NOT a “She”!

She’s brave to speak out and it’s important for her and others to speak out.

You are correct.

And if the truth were known, I suspect those “different parts” are why he is there in the first place.

After all, take a few pills, swim a few laps and get to look at a hundred or so naked 18 to 22 year old girls in the prime of their life physically....
All legal, no risk . Beats peeping in windows.

Legal flashing.

The most disgusting thing about the whole deal is that the university, the swim coaches and all of the universities and coaches that compete with them are gutless wimps.

He should be kicked off the team, no discussions and no mercy. If not kicked off, every university competing should withdraw their teams from any event in which he swims.

I understand that many of the girls are going for the Olympics, but some things are more important than gold medals.

If everyone acted in masse, it would be over in a couple of weeks and they could be back to normal.

I thought the same thing. It appears none of Riley Gaines’ quotes use “her” which is quite refreshing. She said “changing in a locker room with someone who has different parts.”

Too bad she didn’t go just a step further in honesty and truth to expose the lie and say “There’s a MAN with a PECKER in the women’s locker room.”

I thought that right from the start- but they are gutless, like you said- they don’t wanna lose their scholarship monies- There comes a time in life when fighting is the only thing left to do- the girls should ALL boycott every event he is in (ironic that the word is ‘boycott’)

I honestly wish the girls would ALL start stating hat and demand action and declare in no uncertain terms that it is NOT right for a man to be in girl’s locker rooms- ever!

I’m just using the term for it now that’s popular.

Liberalism is the classic term all this occurred under and women pushed for tolerance of gays and lesbians and that opened the door for all the rest. Guys used to deal with the perverts of all stripes, but that was too mean. Had to be tolerant, they just want to exist and be acknowledged...

I will add one last post.

I suspect thsat every girl on the team will confess that she knew earlier what a naked man looks like and several would admit to having a relationship with a man. So it is something more than seeing a naked man.

It is being exposed to a bully who is preventing them from getting credit for all of their hard work.

That alone makes him weird. In addition, he makes no effort to hide his equipment (so I have seen in earlier reports) which is really a form of flashing.

Weird upon weird. A sicko.

Why wouldn’t any young girl be more than uncomfortable with a weirdo that abuses them by ruining their sport and tops it off by stalking through their locker room flashing. The whole thing is a bad dream come to life.

They have been very circumspect in their public comments.
The girls are to be commended for their good manners.

A few of the girls might want to jump Mr. Thomas in the locker room and remove the offending parts.

That's exactly it. Mass cowardice. There's a pandemic of cowardice across the land in all the entities and institutions that make things go. How shady destructive BS should be handled is "You want WHAT?! You want to do WHAT?! Get the F outta my office!". Am thinking at some point this absurdity will run its course, wear out its welcome and get dealt with in due time.

That is a fact.

democrats would insist it would be the woman’s fault for instigating it - what did she do to make him- I mean her - get an erection and how dare you make HER feel bad about it.

Oh, no. I have been in a women’s restroom and there was a man in the stall. He was facing forward to the toilet and it was apparent he was urinating. I Immediately left. I was terrified. It was a public place but the thought of a man in a ‘sanctuary’ where women can disrobe amongst other women suddenly put me in a place where I was fearful. It has nothing to do with knowing what a man looks like naked. It is that society has given a green light for these men to invade our spaces where we can no longer feel safe. When I see a female child go into a restroom by theirselves, I watch to see if a man will follow. The democrats are demonic. They want this fear, this division, this hatred at watching our society be dismantled.

Yeah because every 20 year old girl swimmer likes to have a six foot plus guy hang his junk in her face in the locker room.

I'm confused! According to the Progressive Left, men and women both have the same sexual urges!

As a 16-year-old boy, it was my dream to be let into the girls' shower room. It stands to reason that most 16-year-old girls likewise fantasized about sneaking into the boys' locker room, yes?

Seriously: I don't think that women mind so much having to see male "junk." Nurses do it all the time! Rather, women don't like their "junk" being seen by potentially rowdy men.

Regards,
