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.

I never could understand why the sensibilities or desires of a few delusionals Trump those of the vast normals.

So, is it fair for female reporters to be allowed in male locker rooms? But, But? But what. Schools and society have created generations of persecuted males. Boys seen as no worth, males blamed for all of societies evils, and even drugged to make them into tractable zombies. At the same time society began to pressurise women into competing with males and quit being sex objects. But how many women treat men as sex objects? Or meal tickets? Take your pick. Your liberated woman and support of gender “rights” has helped in creating this mess. Enjoy! If you had the fortitude to resist, both as individuals and as a sex, this would soon stop.

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?


The difference is female swimmers don’t want to see male junk when they are focused on something else like a race.

Because the majority of women voted FOR this. Hopefully, they've learned something, or this country is finished.

I would have never believed that the men upstairs in charge of everything in this country could be so utterly, cravenly such a gang of contemptible fools.

If a true male were to walk into a ladies’ dressing room, revealing all appendages, he would be arrested. But if a male walks in, claiming to be a woman, those swinging things magically disappear and he is considered a woman.

Leftism is insanity is the denial of reality.

I fully support women’s right not to have to compete against men, but in this day and age of random hookups and sex on the first date are college girls really freaked out at the sight of male equipment?

In an unrelated note I’m the last person who should talk about someone’s looks and while Reilly is a very cute girl she has a very large head. She’s like a walking candy apple. Don’t blame me, blame Seinfeld.

Yes, of course! I was making light of the issue / poking fun at "progressives!" My only actual comment begins, at the bottom of my posting, with "Seriously..."

wanting an equal playing field academically and professionally

There will never be an "equal playing field" because men and women are not equal. If you wish to strive for equality, though, you might start by demanding an end to all the legal privileges accorded to women.

Abolish Title IX. In fact, abolish women's sports entirely.

Abolish contracting set-asides for women owned businesses.

Ensure that women are not favored in divorce court.

For a start ...

When I see a female child go into a restroom by theirselves herself, I watch to see if a man will follow.

I remember traveling alone (without my wife) with my 3-year-old daughter for the first time, and having to stand outside the Ladies' Room, and begging women to go inside for me and see "what's up?" (she was taking inordinately long, and our flight take-off was approaching).

Those were the days...

If they didn't have the MSM's gigantic megaphone at their disposal, they would still be only a few delusionals.
