I'm an older gay male. I don't agree with any of this modern bull crop about trans. We all want to be kind to these people, but things have spun out of control.

@@UnknownMoses of seeking equality. No. I maintain that the more subsistence the existence the more equitable the distribution of labor. My ancestors came across the country in covered wagon. The diaries do not reflect anyone being idle on that trip. They insisted on bringing their pianos and fine China but when the wagon broke down in the mud it was all genders suit up. That’s more equal than today where woman CAN but choose to define “equal” as the C suite stats, NOT the original goal: equality of opportunity to compete. I maintain that history is replete with truths about how women have - by using their gender - have brought down or impacted men and countries irrevocably.
Yeah. Title IX is pretty pointless with these sort of rulings. I think, at a minimum, trans athletes should be fully transitioned, unlike Lia Thomas, who is still a biological male.
Fair? What is fair in 2023 when one is forced to call a thing what it isn't because that thing believes it is. It's only a problem. When what actually is can't compete because genetics is impervious to delusion.
Because all of America would rather stand up for a man trying to be a women instead of actual women honestly it’s getting scary how the lgbtq community has become a cult and normal people are being silenced and belittled for wanting to be normal

well.. as we know.. women cant do shit without men... there is always the saying "there are no feminists in warzones" they whine and complain but at the end of the day, they need the men to save them... but nowadays men are called creeps, emasculated and afraid of even looking at women... women are on their own..
A transgender woman recently won a Miss San Francisco beauty pageant! As a biological man who's heterosexual, I strongly encourage biological women to keep fighting this nonsense! Biological men continue to dominate biological women, even if they are transgender! It's not right, and it needs to stop!
Women are well known to unfortunately put each other down…but it is VERY rare to see men stand up to other men. You even see cases now where psychopathic men in a dress challenge regular men to aggressively react against them in return. Most real men don’t of course (because the stigma is so high in regards to confronting a “sissy” man), that needs to change. A Narcissistic psycho in a dress is no different than a psycho in pants! They are dangerous to everyone around them, why else do you think they “test” their perversions onto women and children first as opposed to men?
There’s no way on earth that a male can beat a woman in a beauty pageant without having payed thousands of dollars in plastic surgery. Beautiful woman that haven’t had any plastic surgery are everywhere . They should’ve given the prize to the plastic surgeons 😑….
I’m familiar with swimming. When boys and girls are 12, the differences in swimming times are very minimal, and some girls are faster than boys. But by the time boys are 13, their times start getting faster than girls by a lot; and a lot of good 14 year old boys could swim competitively at the highest level of women’s NCAA swimming. So to suggest that a 21 year old guy could do all the “transition” stuff and then swim fairly against biological women is absurd. And saying this doesn’t make me a transphobe.
What these people don’t want to acknowledge and outright lie about is that puberty had already done its job. No amount of hormone therapy is going to reverse increased lung capacity, bone density, height and strength. Lia Thomas and other “athletes” like them know full well they have a massive advantage, it is why they want to compete against women because they know they can win due to that advantage and why they don’t compete against men because they wouldn’t even place.
@@KADASUVAIt's more than just puberty doing its job; XYs are born with more fast-twitch muscles and different muscle attachments and skeletal structure. Every cell in the body retains its m/f biological origin and stunting the body with life-shortening chemicals isn't fooling nature.
Lia Thomas is known to also be just a TERRIBLE person. On a broader scale though, women deserve to be heard. I recently was denied an OBGYN appointment because I refused to identify as a “birthing person” rather than a woman. I’m not a cow, I’m a person and I deserve respect too.
Wtf.... The only "birthing people" are biological women... & why is simply being a woman not acceptable for treatment from a doctor that specializes in.....womens health?!.... Its too bad you had to take any loss over this sick, twisted state our society is in right now... We shall overcome tho.... eventually
That old saying..."Your business ends where my nose begins" definitely applies here. They are being forced to compete with an anatomical male with muscle and bone structure still very much a male and physically superior with the muscle and bone structure of a female. It's very much the business of these young ladies speaking up who are being forced to compete at a disadvantage to quell the social gaslighting and physical threat by a bunch of social bullies.
He just wanted to win. Why else would he "transition" to be a woman after 20+ years as a man? He is a "everyone gets a trophy" generation, so he wanted one no matter how he got it. Wonder what he's gonna tell his wife and kids about it? It's ok to lie and cheat, just get that trophy? I hope this haunts him for the rest of his days. Every second of every day.
I hope that brave women like Riley and Paula inspire other female athletes to voice their anger at this. It would be even better if male athletes join them. Thanks, guys, for giving Paula a platform!
I think she always had a platform to speak,its a matter of having the guts to speak out. she didn't have her swimming career in jeopardy when she spoke,it was easier for her after finishing college.
Problem is that those athletes are being blackmailed into silence. I can't blame them, since they sure don't want to lose their scholarship. But slowly, a few are starting to speak AFTER they graduated. It's never too late...
These people actually put a whole group of REAL women in a dangerous situation, in order to accomodate ONE delusional man?? Where are we, honestly? We care more about some man's feelings than the feelings of multiple women, who are more sensitive and emotional than men? I am appalled, honestly.
There was a time when what that man did would have been called indecent exposure. Where is that now? If I had kids in a school where this was going on, I would be withdrawing my kids because this is like state-sponsored abuse. I never thought I'd live to see this....
The one who more care the man's feelings that claimed he is a women n he deserved to get what women can have, is a women too who support them. Feminist n woke women for more precisely. They didnt care with actual women can be erased n get replace by delusional man, coz man's feelings who claim as women is more important than the actual women.
I am a feminist, always have been but not in the 'fourth wave' way because most of the things they scream about is nonsense and not even related to actual women. This situation makes me so angry, they're putting the feelings of a biological male over the safety of a group of women. It's literally the patriarchy in action and I don't know why a lot of other feminists aren't more upset about this
Paula, you are so very brave and intelligent. As a woman, I am so proud that you are standing up for biological women and speaking out in such an articulate manner. This insanity needs to be stopped, and you are playing a large part in helping us to have a voice.
The mere fact that one has to speak of biological women to distance oneself from all the crazy people who claim to be women is disturbing to me. Do you have to use the term cis women because of a small crazy minority who have nothing better to do all day than dream up new gender junk? If the perverts are already publicly announcing 'we are coming for your children', it is high time for me to give these lunatics back the status they had at the WHO until the beginning of 2022, namely mentally ill.
@@Freebyrd1991so she went along to get along? I’m sorry but even she realizes it was wrong. When people start displaying integrity in belief in the face of potential consequences from the mob then we will return to a sense of reality.
You know what? I think you might be onto something. Nothing would scare them from force feeding agendas more than a legitimate law suit against them. Search for a sane lawyer and begin the prosecution.
To avoid a lawsuit from Lia, they threatened all the regular girls? All the girls should sue to teach the school a lesson and as well as Lia. Yes, it is unfair. If I have trained all my life to be the best athlete and someone trumped me bc of biology? That's not fair. It wasn't these girls fault they were born female and it's not fair for lia too for her situation. However to s*** all the girls for one person is out of line!
Yea they are taking away women's incentive to even try to go to college or compete ... They just don't stand a chance against men ... That's I'm why we created men and women sports..
Scary that she initially didn’t speak up because she was afraid that she wouldn’t get a job after college … Good to see that more female athletes are speaking up! Great interview 👍
If the woman in video is against sexual harrassment in lockerroom, why did she accept when she was forced to get naked infront of other female athletes? Since basically all athletes are forced to undress in the ockerrooms (and if they don't want to, they must quit playing sports), aren't all athletes already sexually harrassed? So why are trans people suddenly problem?
@@morganpauls1873 Please explain the straw man I supposedly made. Is it a sexual harrassment if someone is forced to undress infront others?

Be specific, just writting that someone's argument is pathetic is easy and, well, pathetic. Give a real counterargument. I dare you.
Im gay and 53 im shocked at the disrespectful way that my women are being treated its terrible not to appreciate the natural beauty of women,and to belittle the unique way a woman is created,and to try to compete with them,but yet imitate them lol
My high school daughters had to compete against a trans runner who qualified for the California state track meet and took the place of a biological female. Paula and her contemporaries are saving women's sports and carrying the torch for all the young girls and women coming up behind them. Thank you for your bravery!
Im not trying to be mean, but how did you not go on field and stop it ? I guess you are in CA . Im not criticizing you I just wonder if this happens to my daughter im scared i will end up in jail.
You and the other parents should have encouraged there bio daughters to boycott the race. All parents of sports children need to teach their children to stand up for women's sports and fight for their spot on the team. I would not of let my daughter compete in that race because a biological girl lost their spot because of a boy. Fight for you biological children and there rights. Stop hiding. Fight.
I'm trans ... and i support these women. There are undeniable advantages that make it unfair to them when competing against a trans MTF who's gone through puberty already and only been on HRT for 1 year.
Hope more trans people will speak out like you. He is a terrible representative by being so self-indulgent and proud. I'm certain this isn't the kind of "pride" intended
My son is trans and I will support him to my death, but this feels like a betrayal of myself and my daughters. Can’t there be a middle ground on this issue? Can’t we support trans rights without canceling women’s voices?
Want to thank you for being honest and fair. As a former female high school athlete I so appreciate your stand. And I also would never want to stop a trans athlete from competing . I hope that a safe and fair space can be found for all athletes.
Hey I am a Transwoman and I support biological women on this topic too. Does it hurt to be reminded to be not a biological woman? Yes, but it is what it is and we need to support our sisters there is no other way. @@laurykristensen6239
I wanna see more retired female athletes speak up for these young women... you got to have your career before this nonsense could affect it, you have nothing to lose career-wise, stand up for your fellow women! (a few have indeed spoken out but we need more to open up about what they know is true!)
Sharon Davis is very vocal about it, she’s the only swimmer I’ve heard speak up though I assume there are more that have just been silenced. There’s some female cyclists also that have opposed to men in woman’s sports. I think they’re afraid of having the J K Rowling treatment. They banned Caster Semenya who is female (she has higher levels of testosterone) and allow men 🤯
What a remarkable young lady, Riley is. Her parents must be so proud of the young woman they have raised. Stand up ladies! MEN don’t belong in WOMENS sports…
It is so sad that these young women had to deal with this stress. Being an athlete, while also dealing with the academic rigors of college, is tough enough, without this added stress. Kaitlin Jenner says that anyone who went through puberty as a male, the way that she herself did, has no business competing in women's sports, period. Males have a permanent cardiovascular advantage, and a permanent skeletal and muscular advantage, if they experienced male puberty. No amount of switching to female hormones later in life, changes that.
Martina Navritalova did a similar interview with Kara Swisher. Martina made same statements as Caitlin, and had troubling stats pointing to damage being done to women's sports.
Thanks for playing girls ice hockey. We had one of those hockey dads that needed his daughter to play on the boys team. My coach said we can’t drag this ball and chain around all season. I told my defenseman to dump it in the corner and I’ll take care of the rest. She went to the locker room and we never saw her again:
@@Nuttyirishman85 it’s unfortunate that her dad was so insistent bc it’s puts EVERYONE at a disadvantage! I hope she found a girls team🤷🏻♀️ It doesn’t matter when the players are mites just learning to skate and whatnot. But by 10 years old it’s two different games out there.
@@brielliott04 Only prep schools had girls hockey back then, last I heard she ended up going to the local public highschool. I don’t think she played anymore.
This story is so creepy. They just got the girls on the team off guard and just forced them to share a locker room. Even though normally it would never ever be allowed. Women’s rights include privacy!!!
Women need to speak out and stand up in the moment. This is how we keep getting into these situations. I’m so glad that even though I was very shy when I was younger I still would stand up for what’s right for myself and others.. Thank u for speaking now
Horrible what happened to Paula and her team mates. Those responsible at the swimming body and at her college should be held to account. To create an atmosphere of fear and turn team mates against each other was despicable. I hope now that the tide is turning and that the upside down world we have created, where selfish cheats like Thomas can have their feelings put ahead of real women, is going to be reversed and normality can return.
Thomas is definitely a selfish cheat with no pride! And he walks in front of the girls with his stuff hanging out. He’s not trans, he’s a weirdo and doing this for the money!
I keep saying we should fake them out. Say that trans men and trans women must compete with their chosen sex. Then watch all the trans men scream unfair. There are a lot of contradictions within that ideology freak show and the more we point them out the more their position gets weak. Then we question the trans men why they think it’s unfair.
These things are sprung on young women who are expected to comply and act agreeable. If any of them had questioned it at the time, they would have been pulled aside and reprimanded. Misogyny is still abundant in this world - 'disagreeable' women are rejected and bullied.
yep - especially the young butch lesbians are getting cancelled and being told the need to "transition" the trasnmovemnt affects and is trying to erase them too
Women need to use their natural inclination for group-centrism to their advantage to work together and defeat this madness. A lot of guys will stand with them.
Multiple people have actually complained but they have no ability to change the rules. People were literally protesting at the same event that Lia won.
Women are naturally more agreeable and risk-averse, so more women need to group together and fight this madness as a large group, and the men need to speak up with them. This whole woke nonsense is basically powered by women, though some men are part of the problem too. This is the very same reason that more females are susceptible to the 'trans' craze because they're so much more group-oriented, as chronicled in the book; "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters" by Abigail Shrier.
I appreciate women like Paulina, for giving her opinion on this. it's good to hear a woman's honest thoughts without them trying to placate to peoples feelings which is so common.
Thank you for speaking up. You are such a powerful voice. I think the biggest takeaway from this interview are your well spoken fears about the future of young women’s sports.
everyone seems to have forgotten the story about the Emperor's New Clothes. the emperor is a man, he's naked, and he's in the women's locker room with your teenage daughter. we all need to resist peer pressure and talk about this until the scales fall decisively from society's eyes.
That's so sad to hear that her mental health was being effected by not knowing who she could trust with her opinions and feelings. She must feel so relieved now that she is able to be herself out in the open around people she knows supports her. Must be such a weight off her shoulders and she looks very healthy and happy now 😊
The saddest part is the insanity of the people that put her and other young women into this terrible situation, the people that abused her rights and blackmailed her
Thanks Crain & Co! Thanks so much for having Paula on and supporting her. Thank you, Paula, for your bravery! I have to say, thanks you guys! Now we know that jocks can be fair and kind and reasonable. I wish the whole world would support you! It's so nuts that people think about "dumb jocks," when you have to be super smart to succeed at your chosen sports! Bravo, C&C!
I agree that Caitlyn Jenner never should have gotten that award but he has been backing biological women when it comes to sports. He has spoken out many times that trans women should not be competing against bio women. That trans women have the advantages. And that tran are taking positions away from bio women.
Even Caitlin Jenner (formerly Bruce Jenner) thinks it's bs that someone who went through male puberty is allowed to compete in the women's sports division
100% agree but there is a sinister tone to all this like a storm on the horizon gaining strength bringing chaos & destruction. Devastating to bio women's sports.
@nccrchurchunusual7990 I agree, and I think this is being done very purposefully. And what shocks me is that women have allowed this especially in the upper echelons of government and legislation. What does that tell you?
The world aquatics had an open section for transgender and non binary athletes and no one signed up. So it goes to show that these men want to invade womens sports.
Have they had a Trans compete with the men before? I mean a biological woman that transitioned to be a man? Obviously, if they did, they would never win.
I’ve been saying that since the beginning of this foolishness! If transgender people want to play they need their own sports teams. Women fought to have their own lane in sports why can’t transgender people do the same?
As a transwoman, I think women need to have safe spaces. Women are women. Transwomen are transwomen. Civil Rights aren't about domination of a marginalized class. It's about integration and civility.
This is bigger than just sports. It affects everyone- bathroom use, fitting room use- there are some stores that have a big open space fitting room par sex. I first saw it at the store, that used to be called Lohmans. Also- there was a transgender woman (originally a man), who came on to one of the Korean spas last year. Mind you- it is the place where everyone is naked and women bring little kids with them to the spa. Everyone there was freaked out. But they where see as something was wrong with them.
I think the rest of the World, myself included, sees “extremist socialism” as being the USA’s political nightmare. JB belongs in a white home, not a Whitehouse. Just saying … I remember the Cold War, I never thought the day would come to see such hideously socialist agendas take hold in the USA. This is not a unique issue sadly. Feminists in the UK make a really good argument - women are now subordinate to the trans women. Very sad times indeed.

Sadly you’ll have other women shouting you down if you say anything and call you all types of “Phobic” possibly loose your income and ability to support your family. The woke mob is real
I'm so glad you feel this way. I feel all fathers should be this protective of their wife and daughters. Good for you for being on your daughters side.
Really great interview. The only thing is that I wish that you had spent more time on the Psy-ops portion. How did the Psychologists at UPenn try to convince her that it was a good thing? What phrases did they use on her, if any? Glad she's speaking up. Men need to speak up against this, too.
Fantastic interview. Thanks Paula & thanks guys. Keep fighting against this wrong. Our beliefs are not Transphobic. Ot is fighting against what is wring in sport and is not disrespecting Transgenders at all.
Yet another inspiring story for our young boys that they can really be whatever they want to be. We can tell them that if they want to be an astronaut, president, actor -- and even the best female sports athlete, the system will support them. You cannot tell this to your daughters though. They can only be whatever they want to be (best female athlete, miss universe, etc.) as long as a man doesn't want it too.
A man is not allowed in women's locker room... until they say they are a woman after a few shots of estrogen. It is unbelievable this topic is even a thought.
I have NO idea how Riley found the courage to stand up and make this a full-blown public debate about this situation!! Personally, I can't wrap my head around the issue of "transgenderism." Yes, I realize that's probably not the right word. But having a biological MAN on your swim team and sharing your locker room is not right either! I'm grateful I've never once thought I somehow was put into the "wrong" body at birth. Life itself is quite challenging without struggling with that issue! Thanks, Riley, for opening up and having the courage to share this experience and how it impacted you.
Sooo, I’m actually a 45 yr old female athlete and I actually identify as a 10 yr old girl and I want to complete against what I believe are my people. What, you see something wrong with this? Why? Maybe I would win every competition? So!
Shame on all the women sports personalities who have been and gone! Where are your voices at this crucial time. Do you think you would have ALL your medals, trophies and accolades IF this male infiltration had happened in your era and in your chosen sport?! Your silence is deafening. Stand up! Stand up now and be the voice of ALL women. 🙏🏻✨
My 12yo daughter is a swimmer and we pulled her out because of this issue. I don’t want her (or me) to have to deal with it. We’re looking for another sport.
Very good video. I can't even imagine what this girl, and the others, especially Riley Gaines who had to compete directly with a man, went through this sad episode. The world is not going in the right direction and these people who let this happen, not only in swimming but in other sports as well, harming so many women and girls, should be fired and banned from working in anything related to sport again. I leave all my support and sympathy to these girls and women!
It would stop immediately if all the women just stopped the competition. You all walk off the pitch, leave the ring, jump out of the pool. It will all be over
@@rhonda6791 they need families behind them to encourage them that winning this is more important than taking part in the sport, it taking part means they will lose unfairly anyway
What an intelligent and brave woman. I love that her family supports her and is close with her. I’m also dyslexic (and I have ADHD) and used to play tons of sports growing up, including swimming. It really did benefit me mentally too. I am so glad she spoke up against this. She’s right, it’s not right or fair. It’s not “transphobic” because it has nothing to do with Lia being trans but has to do with him being MALE! Women’s sports are for biological females not males who wish they were female. Do whatever you’d like with your body but your rights do not outweigh everybody else’s rights. Women deserve to have locker rooms, bathrooms, teams, scholarships, and titles that belong to them and them alone.
So glad to read the comment prior to mine………it made total sense………squashing the feelings of women who are not comfortable with this disgraceful situation is shameful……. It is a perfect case of BULLYING!!
I like that these girls are willing to speak out. The transphobic label you get auto assigned and even begin to believe about yourself is so wrong. This is not about being against someone’s right to chose what gender identity fits for themselves. This is about fairness in competition for sports. That’s all it is about
Muslim extremists use the same tactic. If you criticize Islam for ANY reason, you get called an Islamophobe. Unfortunately, it works on weak-minded people who only know to follow the herd (the woke mob) and fear backlash from the same.

Women are well known to unfortunately put each other down…but it is VERY rare to see men stand up to other men. You even see cases now where psychopathic men in a dress challenge regular men to aggressively react against them in return. Most real men don’t of course (because the stigma is so high in regards to confronting a “sissy” man), that needs to change.
A Narcissistic psycho in a dress is no different than a psycho in pants! They are dangerous to everyone around them, why else do you think they “test” their perversions onto women and children first as opposed to men?
I am almost not surprised, a trans women probably got work done so "her" body was probably too perfect to compete against.
Called transhuman and this is what the demonic possessed democrats want. To get rid of humans n gods image and evolved them
There’s no way on earth that a male can beat a woman in a beauty pageant without having payed thousands of dollars in plastic surgery. Beautiful woman that haven’t had any plastic surgery are everywhere .
They should’ve given the prize to the plastic surgeons 😑….
again men dont do anything.
This is bullying. She has been bullied and great for her to stand up for what is happening.
I’m familiar with swimming. When boys and girls are 12, the differences in swimming times are very minimal, and some girls are faster than boys. But by the time boys are 13, their times start getting faster than girls by a lot; and a lot of good 14 year old boys could swim competitively at the highest level of women’s NCAA swimming. So to suggest that a 21 year old guy could do all the “transition” stuff and then swim fairly against biological women is absurd. And saying this doesn’t make me a transphobe.
What these people don’t want to acknowledge and outright lie about is that puberty had already done its job. No amount of hormone therapy is going to reverse increased lung capacity, bone density, height and strength. Lia Thomas and other “athletes” like them know full well they have a massive advantage, it is why they want to compete against women because they know they can win due to that advantage and why they don’t compete against men because they wouldn’t even place.
@@KADASUVAIt's more than just puberty doing its job; XYs are born with more fast-twitch muscles and different muscle attachments and skeletal structure. Every cell in the body retains its m/f biological origin and stunting the body with life-shortening chemicals isn't fooling nature.
@KADASUVA the left will use that argument for kids to transition before puberty starts.
@KADASUVA the left will use that argument for kids to transition before puberty starts.
@@jessicably3they lose because they suck. That’s why they’re “suddenly” women.
Lia Thomas is known to also be just a TERRIBLE person. On a broader scale though, women deserve to be heard. I recently was denied an OBGYN appointment because I refused to identify as a “birthing person” rather than a woman. I’m not a cow, I’m a person and I deserve respect too.
It is only a matter of time "birthing person" will not suffice, because some people identify themselves as such...
Where did this happen??????
What! Seriously a Birthing Person... 😢
Wtf.... The only "birthing people" are biological women... & why is simply being a woman not acceptable for treatment from a doctor that specializes in.....womens health?!.... Its too bad you had to take any loss over this sick, twisted state our society is in right now... We shall overcome tho.... eventually
Health... wow
No one is obligated to embrace or accept someone else’s subjective “reality”
That old saying..."Your business ends where my nose begins" definitely applies here. They are being forced to compete with an anatomical male with muscle and bone structure still very much a male and physically superior with the muscle and bone structure of a female. It's very much the business of these young ladies speaking up who are being forced to compete at a disadvantage to quell the social gaslighting and physical threat by a bunch of social bullies.
Exactly. I’m not buying tickets to someone else’s circus.
Now, they are trying to force gay women to date because now a man can identify as a lesbsin.
I want to thank Paula and Riley for standing up for real women athletes, not male athletes masquerading as women such as Lia!
He just wanted to win. Why else would he "transition" to be a woman after 20+ years as a man? He is a "everyone gets a trophy" generation, so he wanted one no matter how he got it. Wonder what he's gonna tell his wife and kids about it? It's ok to lie and cheat, just get that trophy? I hope this haunts him for the rest of his days. Every second of every day.
He did it bc he was paid to fuck over women & female athletes
I hope that brave women like Riley and Paula inspire other female athletes to voice their anger at this. It would be even better if male athletes join them. Thanks, guys, for giving Paula a platform!
I thought that male athletes joining them was the problem. 😉
@@Primalxbeast Good one 👍
ARE ** " TRANS - GENDER " ATHLETES ALLOWED TO COMPETE IN THE OLYMPICS ???
I think she always had a platform to speak,its a matter of having the guts to speak out. she didn't have her swimming career in jeopardy when she spoke,it was easier for her after finishing college.
Problem is that those athletes are being blackmailed into silence.
I can't blame them, since they sure don't want to lose their scholarship.
But slowly, a few are starting to speak AFTER they graduated.
It's never too late...
Good for her!! 👏👏👏 it’s very scary to go against a mad crowd who openly threatens you. You go girl! 🤝
These people actually put a whole group of REAL women in a dangerous situation, in order to accomodate ONE delusional man?? Where are we, honestly? We care more about some man's feelings than the feelings of multiple women, who are more sensitive and emotional than men? I am appalled, honestly.
Thnk to F feminists🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There was a time when what that man did would have been called indecent exposure. Where is that now? If I had kids in a school where this was going on, I would be withdrawing my kids because this is like state-sponsored abuse. I never thought I'd live to see this....
The one who more care the man's feelings that claimed he is a women n he deserved to get what women can have, is a women too who support them. Feminist n woke women for more precisely. They didnt care with actual women can be erased n get replace by delusional man, coz man's feelings who claim as women is more important than the actual women.
Truth! I feel the same way about women’s restroom too. It is unfair on us real women!
I am a feminist, always have been but not in the 'fourth wave' way because most of the things they scream about is nonsense and not even related to actual women.
This situation makes me so angry, they're putting the feelings of a biological male over the safety of a group of women. It's literally the patriarchy in action and I don't know why a lot of other feminists aren't more upset about this
Paula, you are so very brave and intelligent. As a woman, I am so proud that you are standing up for biological women and speaking out in such an articulate manner. This insanity needs to be stopped, and you are playing a large part in helping us to have a voice.
Indeed
The mere fact that one has to speak of biological women to distance oneself from all the crazy people who claim to be women is disturbing to me. Do you have to use the term cis women because of a small crazy minority who have nothing better to do all day than dream up new gender junk?
If the perverts are already publicly announcing 'we are coming for your children', it is high time for me to give these lunatics back the status they had at the WHO until the beginning of 2022, namely mentally ill.

You know what? I think you might be onto something.
Nothing would scare them from force feeding agendas more than a legitimate law suit against them.
Search for a sane lawyer and begin the prosecution.
To avoid a lawsuit from Lia, they threatened all the regular girls? All the girls should sue to teach the school a lesson and as well as Lia. Yes, it is unfair. If I have trained all my life to be the best athlete and someone trumped me bc of biology? That's not fair. It wasn't these girls fault they were born female and it's not fair for lia too for her situation. However to s*** all the girls for one person is out of line!
Those Ladies need to Sue those Universities 😡🤬
NCAA, needs to be sued
Yea they are taking away women's incentive to even try to go to college or compete ... They just don't stand a chance against men ... That's I'm why we created men and women sports..
Scary that she initially didn’t speak up because she was afraid that she wouldn’t get a job after college …
Good to see that more female athletes are speaking up!
Great interview 👍
That's the reality
Like all of us!
If the woman in video is against sexual harrassment in lockerroom, why did she accept when she was forced to get naked infront of other female athletes? Since basically all athletes are forced to undress in the ockerrooms (and if they don't want to, they must quit playing sports), aren't all athletes already sexually harrassed? So why are trans people suddenly problem?
@@goranmilic442 that's a very pathetic straw man you got there I doubt it could spook a chicken
@@morganpauls1873 Please explain the straw man I supposedly made.
Is it a sexual harrassment if someone is forced to undress infront others?
And if the answer is yes, then all female athletes were already sexually harrassed, didn't they?

Be specific, just writting that someone's argument is pathetic is easy and, well, pathetic. Give a real counterargument. I dare you.
Im gay and 53 im shocked at the disrespectful way that my women are being treated its terrible not to appreciate the natural beauty of women,and to belittle the unique way a woman is created,and to try to compete with them,but yet imitate them lol
A Trans woman is a man. Changing the terminology doesn't alter the facts.

Also Lia competed with a penis. Sooo....
STOP STOP STOP calling HIM Lia, WILLIAM!!!
My high school daughters had to compete against a trans runner who qualified for the California state track meet and took the place of a biological female. Paula and her contemporaries are saving women's sports and carrying the torch for all the young girls and women coming up behind them. Thank you for your bravery!
Im not trying to be mean, but how did you not go on field and stop it ? I guess you are in CA . Im not criticizing you I just wonder if this happens to my daughter im scared i will end up in jail.
When you say biological female I assume you mean female
Your daughters should have organized a boycott of the event.
@@stephannichols2823 He could have stopped it just by complaining to officials and rallying other parents. I am criticizing him.
You and the other parents should have encouraged there bio daughters to boycott the race. All parents of sports children need to teach their children to stand up for women's sports and fight for their spot on the team. I would not of let my daughter compete in that race because a biological girl lost their spot because of a boy. Fight for you biological children and there rights. Stop hiding. Fight.
I'm trans ... and i support these women. There are undeniable advantages that make it unfair to them when competing against a trans MTF who's gone through puberty already and only been on HRT for 1 year.
Hope more trans people will speak out like you. He is a terrible representative by being so self-indulgent and proud. I'm certain this isn't the kind of "pride" intended
My son is trans and I will support him to my death, but this feels like a betrayal of myself and my daughters. Can’t there be a middle ground on this issue? Can’t we support trans rights without canceling women’s voices?
It's as though we are going back in time where men can define what a female is...
Want to thank you for being honest and fair. As a former female high school athlete I so appreciate your stand. And I also would never want to stop a trans athlete from competing . I hope that a safe and fair space can be found for all athletes.
Hey I am a Transwoman and I support biological women on this topic too. Does it hurt to be reminded to be not a biological woman? Yes, but it is what it is and we need to support our sisters there is no other way. @@laurykristensen6239
I wanna see more retired female athletes speak up for these young women... you got to have your career before this nonsense could affect it, you have nothing to lose career-wise, stand up for your fellow women! (a few have indeed spoken out but we need more to open up about what they know is true!)
Yes, I am shocked by how silent older female athletes are being! Where is your shame at leaving these young girls hanging out to dry? 😮
This Thompson guy clearly hates women, and himself.
Sharon Davis is very vocal about it, she’s the only swimmer I’ve heard speak up though I assume there are more that have just been silenced. There’s some female cyclists also that have opposed to men in woman’s sports. I think they’re afraid of having the J K Rowling treatment. They banned Caster Semenya who is female (she has higher levels of testosterone) and allow men 🤯

Yesssss
What a remarkable young lady, Riley is. Her parents must be so proud of the young woman they have raised. Stand up ladies! MEN don’t belong in WOMENS sports…
It is so sad that these young women had to deal with this stress. Being an athlete, while also dealing with the academic rigors of college, is tough enough, without this added stress. Kaitlin Jenner says that anyone who went through puberty as a male, the way that she herself did, has no business competing in women's sports, period. Males have a permanent cardiovascular advantage, and a permanent skeletal and muscular advantage, if they experienced male puberty. No amount of switching to female hormones later in life, changes that.
The Lance Armstrong interview with Cait was fantastic on this topic.
Martina Navritalova did a similar interview with Kara Swisher. Martina made same statements as Caitlin, and had troubling stats pointing to damage being done to women's sports.
So concerned for the feelings of one confused individual, but they don't give a damn about the feelings and concerns of all the others.
thats how it always works divide and counquer
As a former female athlete who lived and breathed my sport, I stand with you!
Edit: Girls ice hockey*
Thanks for playing girls ice hockey. We had one of those hockey dads that needed his daughter to play on the boys team. My coach said we can’t drag this ball and chain around all season. I told my defenseman to dump it in the corner and I’ll take care of the rest. She went to the locker room and we never saw her again:
@@Nuttyirishman85 it’s unfortunate that her dad was so insistent bc it’s puts EVERYONE at a disadvantage! I hope she found a girls team🤷🏻♀️ It doesn’t matter when the players are mites just learning to skate and whatnot. But by 10 years old it’s two different games out there.
@@brielliott04 Only prep schools had girls hockey back then, last I heard she ended up going to the local public highschool. I don’t think she played anymore.
This story is so creepy. They just got the girls on the team off guard and just forced them to share a locker room. Even though normally it would never ever be allowed.

Men's Sports must have men, and Women's Sports must have women. That is equally.
I’ve been saying this since DAY ONE
Right. And "Trans women" are not women. "Trans men" are not men.

Women need to speak out and stand up in the moment. This is how we keep getting into these situations. I’m so glad that even though I was very shy when I was younger I still would stand up for what’s right for myself and others.. Thank u for speaking now
You're a very strong woman, thank you for speaking up about this Paula ❤
Martina is a legend!! Do not stop this fight!
Horrible what happened to Paula and her team mates. Those responsible at the swimming body and at her college should be held to account. To create an atmosphere of fear and turn team mates against each other was despicable. I hope now that the tide is turning and that the upside down world we have created, where selfish cheats like Thomas can have their feelings put ahead of real women, is going to be reversed and normality can return.
Thomas is definitely a selfish cheat with no pride! And he walks in front of the girls with his stuff hanging out. He’s not trans, he’s a weirdo and doing this for the money!
This is heartbreaking. This girl went through terrible trauma. 😭😭😭
This will encourage athletes who can't compete against their own kind to switch their sex and then they win with ease; this madness needs to stop
Only male to female athletes. And that's the whole point. You don't hear of women transitioning and beating men in men's sports. And you won't.
I keep saying we should fake them out. Say that trans men and trans women must compete with their chosen sex. Then watch all the trans men scream unfair. There are a lot of contradictions within that ideology freak show and the more we point them out the more their position gets weak. Then we question the trans men why they think it’s unfair.
That is how these f........TS
Work divide an conquer
Same as our government
You are exactly right, they know they can't beat a man.
@mallorycarpinski1160 I want to see that. You are correct- everyone has the right, but this change happens typically in one direction.
These things are sprung on young women who are expected to comply and act agreeable. If any of them had questioned it at the time, they would have been pulled aside and reprimanded. Misogyny is still abundant in this world - 'disagreeable' women are rejected and bullied.
yep - especially the young butch lesbians are getting cancelled and being told the need to "transition" the trasnmovemnt affects and is trying to erase them too
Wow
Women need to use their natural inclination for group-centrism to their advantage to work together and defeat this madness. A lot of guys will stand with them.
I’m appaled how only two female athlete teammates complained about it.
I am appalled that the parents of the other teammates didn’t let their anger be known to the weak coaches that were so passive
@@cathysimpson924 Because the activist have succeeded in labeling people as racist and anti-gay.
@@powerboatguy2308 Let’s be honest, the people being labelled racist are actually out of line.
Multiple people have actually complained but they have no ability to change the rules. People were literally protesting at the same event that Lia won.
Women are naturally more agreeable and risk-averse, so more women need to group together and fight this madness as a large group, and the men need to speak up with them. This whole woke nonsense is basically powered by women, though some men are part of the problem too. This is the very same reason that more females are susceptible to the 'trans' craze because they're so much more group-oriented, as chronicled in the book; "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters" by Abigail Shrier.
I appreciate women like Paulina, for giving her opinion on this. it's good to hear a woman's honest thoughts without them trying to placate to peoples feelings which is so common.
Thank you for speaking up. You are such a powerful voice. I think the biggest takeaway from this interview are your well spoken fears about the future of young women’s sports.
everyone seems to have forgotten the story about the Emperor's New Clothes. the emperor is a man, he's naked, and he's in the women's locker room with your teenage daughter. we all need to resist peer pressure and talk about this until the scales fall decisively from society's eyes.
Thank you for keeping this topic alive and having the courage to speak up for women everywhere. 😘💕
As a gay person I agree with 13:50 - 14:05 ish. I’m tired of being lumped together and I’m glad someone said it
The creepers, and that's not all of them, use the rest of the letter group for the compassion and respect it garners.
I NEED TO KNOW what has happened to the people who allowed this to happen to these girls.
That's so sad to hear that her mental health was being effected by not knowing who she could trust with her opinions and feelings. She must feel so relieved now that she is able to be herself out in the open around people she knows supports her. Must be such a weight off her shoulders and she looks very healthy and happy now 😊
The saddest part is the insanity of the people that put her and other young women into this terrible situation, the people that abused her rights and blackmailed her
Thanks Crain & Co! Thanks so much for having Paula on and supporting her. Thank you, Paula, for your bravery! I have to say, thanks you guys! Now we know that jocks can be fair and kind and reasonable. I wish the whole world would support you! It's so nuts that people think about "dumb jocks," when you have to be super smart to succeed at your chosen sports! Bravo, C&C!
I blame the Kardashians for when their biological dad a male, won woman of the year, that is when the world went upside down
Their biological dad was Robert Kardashian 😉
I agree that Caitlyn Jenner never should have gotten that award but he has been backing biological women when it comes to sports. He has spoken out many times that trans women should not be competing against bio women. That trans women have the advantages. And that tran are taking positions away from bio women.
Chris Jenner is dead against all this nonsense.
@@gretchenmarie4240 Yip, you're spot on here.
Even Caitlin Jenner (formerly Bruce Jenner) thinks it's bs that someone who went through male puberty is allowed to compete in the women's sports division
Why don't they just start a Trans gender team ?
100% agree but there is a sinister tone to all this like a storm on the horizon gaining strength bringing chaos & destruction. Devastating to bio women's sports.
@nccrchurchunusual7990 I agree, and I think this is being done very purposefully. And what shocks me is that women have allowed this especially in the upper echelons of government and legislation. What does that tell you?
The world aquatics had an open section for transgender and non binary athletes and no one signed up. So it goes to show that these men want to invade womens sports.
Have they had a Trans compete with the men before? I mean a biological woman that transitioned to be a man? Obviously, if they did, they would never win.
I’ve been saying that since the beginning of this foolishness! If transgender people want to play they need their own sports teams. Women fought to have their own lane in sports why can’t transgender people do the same?
As a transwoman, I think women need to have safe spaces. Women are women. Transwomen are transwomen. Civil Rights aren't about domination of a marginalized class. It's about integration and civility.
This fight is worth fighting for the future of women's sports❤
This is bigger than just sports. It affects everyone- bathroom use, fitting room use- there are some stores that have a big open space fitting room par sex. I first saw it at the store, that used to be called Lohmans.
Also- there was a transgender woman (originally a man), who came on to one of the Korean spas last year. Mind you- it is the place where everyone is naked and women bring little kids with them to the spa. Everyone there was freaked out. But they where see as something was wrong with them.

Excellent interview. I hope that young woman has a fantastic life!
A beautifully articulate young Lady. A pleasure to listen to her.
Yet another inspiring story for our young boys that they can really be whatever they want to be. We can tell them that if they want to be an astronaut, president, actor -- and even the best female sports athlete, the system will support them. You cannot tell this to your daughters though. They can only be whatever they want to be (best female athlete, miss universe, etc.) as long as a man doesn't want it too.
Very sad
Thank you for covering this! Nice to have a sports site on the good side.
Paula is not only an intelligent woman but she is a brave woman too.
Thanks for standing up for whats right. Always speak up if something doesnt seem right. Never let someone silence you
A man is not allowed in women's locker room... until they say they are a woman after a few shots of estrogen. It is unbelievable this topic is even a thought.
I have NO idea how Riley found the courage to stand up and make this a full-blown public debate about this situation!! Personally, I can't wrap my head around the issue of "transgenderism." Yes, I realize that's probably not the right word. But having a biological MAN on your swim team and sharing your locker room is not right either! I'm grateful I've never once thought I somehow was put into the "wrong" body at birth. Life itself is quite challenging without struggling with that issue! Thanks, Riley, for opening up and having the courage to share this experience and how it impacted you.
Sooo, I’m actually a 45 yr old female athlete and I actually identify as a 10 yr old girl and I want to complete against what I believe are my people. What, you see something wrong with this? Why? Maybe I would win every competition? So!
Intimidation like that sounds criminal, it makes me think people can only be safe if they're constantly recording all of their experiences
The 99.99% are being subjected to the DELUSIONS of the .01 percent. How ridiculous is that?
That’s crazy threatening women on a women’s team to not say anything about having a biological man on their team .
Good for you girl. We need women to stand united against this lunacy.
She is right on point 👉 about lgbt . Same ole game doing whatever it takes to silence women' s dissent.
Shame on all the women sports personalities who have been and gone! Where are your voices at this crucial time. Do you think you would have ALL your medals, trophies and accolades IF this male infiltration had happened in your era and in your chosen sport?! Your silence is deafening. Stand up! Stand up now and be the voice of ALL women. 🙏🏻✨
I totally agree with you!!
U give up everything to be an athlete and for her to be bullied like that is criminal
I agree leave women’s sports alone
My 12yo daughter is a swimmer and we pulled her out because of this issue. I don’t want her (or me) to have to deal with it. We’re looking for another sport.
This podcast sums up the madness of our new world. Great job guy's.
Its so interesting how it works to keep people silent...and liberating to overcome their gaslighting ,well done
Paula, it’s very clear that you’re doing this for the greater good and future of girls/women’s sports.
We need more young people like Paula - very smart, great personality, normal, and funny!
Great conversation. 🙏🏻Thank you all so much! ❤
Very good video.
I can't even imagine what this girl, and the others, especially Riley Gaines who had to compete directly with a man, went through this sad episode.
The world is not going in the right direction and these people who let this happen, not only in swimming but in other sports as well, harming so many women and girls, should be fired and banned from working in anything related to sport again.
I leave all my support and sympathy to these girls and women!
It would stop immediately if all the women just stopped the competition. You all walk off the pitch, leave the ring, jump out of the pool. It will all be over
That’s what I’d do. Why aren’t they advised to do this.
@@rhonda6791 they need families behind them to encourage them that winning this is more important than taking part in the sport, it taking part means they will lose unfairly anyway
It is easier said than done. If you are bullied by your school system. And you have a scholarship on stake.
If there are no competitors to swim against there isnt a event to win. Maybe the schools need to provide mental counseling for the trans.
What an intelligent and brave woman. I love that her family supports her and is close with her. I’m also dyslexic (and I have ADHD) and used to play tons of sports growing up, including swimming. It really did benefit me mentally too. I am so glad she spoke up against this. She’s right, it’s not right or fair. It’s not “transphobic” because it has nothing to do with Lia being trans but has to do with him being MALE! Women’s sports are for biological females not males who wish they were female. Do whatever you’d like with your body but your rights do not outweigh everybody else’s rights. Women deserve to have locker rooms, bathrooms, teams, scholarships, and titles that belong to them and them alone.
8:04 David is brilliant to point out the irony of “safe spaces”. 😂
exactly.. suddenly safe spaces don't count if they're for women.
William is a coward and needs a good long period of reflection...
I would love to know why the male team members think about this situation.
The best female is a male :D.
Probably thinking how they can get into the female locker room.

Glad to be rid of the nut case?
NEVER, in a million years, would I have thought I could be interested in a show about sports, but I LOVE Crain & Co.!
feel so sorry for these WOMEN
So glad to read the comment prior to mine………it made total sense………squashing the feelings of women who are not comfortable with this disgraceful situation is shameful……. It is a perfect case of BULLYING!!
I like that these girls are willing to speak out. The transphobic label you get auto assigned and even begin to believe about yourself is so wrong. This is not about being against someone’s right to chose what gender identity fits for themselves. This is about fairness in competition for sports. That’s all it is about
Muslim extremists use the same tactic. If you criticize Islam for ANY reason, you get called an Islamophobe. Unfortunately, it works on weak-minded people who only know to follow the herd (the woke mob) and fear backlash from the same.
Great interview. Enjoyed it completely but still pissed me off. I’m sorry these women had to go through this nonsense.
