Simone Biles slams ‘sore loser’ Riley Gaines over attacks on trans athlete

Simone Biles has publicly condemned former swimmer Riley Gaines for her repeated attacks on transgender athletes, calling Gaines ‘sick’ and a ‘sore loser’

Gaines quickly fired back, calling Biles’ remarks “so disappointing” and insisting: “Men don’t belong in women’s sports and I say that with my full chest.” In the case of Champlin Park, Gaines made multiple posts about the transgender pitcher, even mentioning the player by name and referring to her with male pronouns, despite the team’s vocal support for their teammate. Gaines reposted several replies from fans who echoed her position, arguing that Biles was undermining women’s sports and confusing the issue by suggesting a separate transgender category.
