Olympic gymnast Simone Biles faces growing backlash for defending biological males in women’s sports. Her public feud with athlete-turned-activist Riley Gaines exploded this week after Biles attacked Gaines for criticizing a transgender high school softball pitcher’s championship win. The clash reveals a deepening divide between woke athletes and everyday Americans fighting to save women’s sports.
Biles called Gaines “truly sick” for highlighting the obvious male advantage in Minnesota’s girls’ softball championship. The transgender pitcher dominated the tournament, throwing 35 shutout innings and striking out batters at rates female athletes couldn’t match. Yet Biles demanded critics stop “bullying” and create special categories for transgender competitors instead of protecting female athletes.
Gaines fired back, accusing Biles of betraying women who supported her career. She reminded Biles of the gymnast’s own 2020 tweet joking about male athletes stealing medals from women. Conservative leaders joined the outcry, with Maine Rep. Laurel Libby slamming Biles for putting radical ideology above basic fairness. “When champions like Biles side against women,” Libby said, “they’re telling every girl athlete their dreams don’t matter.”
The Minnesota controversy proves why biological males don’t belong in women’s sports. The transgender pitcher’s fastball speed exceeded typical female velocities by 15-20 mph – a physical gap no amount of training can overcome. Parents watched helplessly as their daughters faced an opponent with built-in biological advantages. This isn’t inclusion – it’s humiliation.
Biles’ suggestion for “transgender categories” ignores reality. There’s no demand for all-trans leagues. This empty virtue signaling sacrifices real women’s opportunities to appease a tiny activist minority. True champions protect their sport’s integrity. Biles chose instead to attack those defending female athletes’ right to compete on level playing fields.
The woke mob quickly rallied behind Biles, praising her “inclusive” stance. But ordinary Americans see the truth. Women’s sports exist because biology matters. Letting males compete as women destroys decades of progress toward gender equality in athletics. Every stolen trophy, every lost scholarship, every crushed dream proves this isn’t fairness – it’s far-left social engineering.
Gaines continues leading the charge for common sense, refusing to back down despite celebrity attacks. Her courage contrasts sharply with Biles’ betrayal. While Biles cashes endorsement checks, young girls face locker rooms and competitions invaded by biological males. Parents are fighting back, but they need allies in leadership – not Olympic sellouts.
This isn’t about hate. It’s about honesty. Women’s sports must remain for women. Any athlete with integrity should defend that simple truth. Biles had a chance to be a hero. Instead, she became a cautionary tale – proof that even legends can fall to woke cults that care more about feelings than facts. America’s daughters deserve better.
