Smug Megan Rapinoe goes on unhinged rant, attacks Riley Gaines and Sophie Cunningham over women's sports
Fox News ^ | August 7, 2026 | Alejandro Avila

Megan Rapinoe is back, taking shots at women's sports advocates and once again insisting the differences between male and female athletes shouldn't matter in women's sports.

Speaking on her "Why Are You Like This?" podcast — a question sports fans have been asking about her for years — the former USWNT star went after Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham and OutKick's own Riley Gaines after the two posed for a photo following the Fever's game against the Minnesota Lynx.

Rapinoe supports allowing biological males to compete in women's sports, yet frames women who object, and even athletes who simply stand beside them, as the villains.

"I want to address the controversy that is happening right now around trans women in sports," Rapinoe opened.

"As you know, I've talked about this a lot and will continue to keep talking about this."

Rapinoe and that entire USWNT are basically products of Title IX which put funding and scholarships for women on equal footing with Men’s sports. I would argue that without it the success of the USWNT and the mere existence of the WNBA would be in doubt. You would not have had the quality and quantity of female athletic talent to establish those programs. But Megan has her ‘bag’ and is perfectly willing to pull up the ladder for the next generation of girls over an arcane point whether men-identifying-as-women can jump the line into a Women’s sports league. Real nice, Rapinoe!

That picture speaks 1,000 words.

Megan is desperately trying to be relevant, but she’s just another loud, aging dyke.

I doubt that a team of boys pretending to be girls could beat the Women's national team.

Oh? So the boys have to be sincere when they pretend to be girls? Teenage boys would probably leap at the chance to smoke these arrogant lesbians in a pick-up game -- just for laughs.

Does Megan Rapinoe ever go on a “hinged rant”, asking for a friend.

“Oh? So the boys have to be sincere when they pretend to be girls? Teenage boys would probably leap at the chance to smoke these arrogant lesbians in a pick-up game — just for laughs.”

You missed my point (or maybe I did not communicate the point well). I’ll try again: Real teenage boys playing as teenage boys can beat the U.S. Women’s National Team. Most Trans boys pretending to be girls would not make the boys team, which is why they pretend to be girls.

Ah, yes - Megan Rapinoe - who, at her best, would be thoroughly outplayed by the average 16 year old boy player. What a maroon.

Exactly....only thing sader than a has been trying be relevant is a lesbian one.

This one, rosie, Ellen.

They should all find a private island somewhere and leave us in peace.
