Anti-Trans Swimmer Slammed After Causing Trans Teen To Lose Volleyball Scholarship

Outspoken anti-trans swimmer Riley Gaines was called out for bullying after she complained about a trans teen's volleyball scholarship to play at the University of Washington, allegedly leading to the scholarship being revoked.

Anti-trans swimmer Riley Gaines has once again sparked outrage after her public campaign against a trans high school student resulted in the teen's college scholarship being revoked.

The 17-year-old is said to have verbally committed to a volleyball scholarship, one of several scholarships she was offered by the University of Washington.


It's unclear how Gaines knew about the teen, but she took to X, aka Twitter, last week to write a cruel screed against the student, outing and misgendering her, revealing her identity with a photo, and calling on UW to revoke her scholarship.

Gaines claims that the student and her parents deceived the university by concealing her trans identity. Disclosing someone else's sexual or gender identity without their consent is considered illegal harassment under Washington law.

In one of her tweets, Riley wrote:

“Male takes women’s volleyball scholarship at @UW … a soon-to-be Big 10 school, stealing the already few opportunities for women at the collegiate level. How can he be proud?"
"@UWVolleyball should rescind the scholarship if they really care about women. He can play with the men.”

When the university subsequently rescinded the teen's volleyball scholarship, Gaines cheered the decision on social media.

Her tweets have also inspired a wave of right-wing attacks against the teen on social media and right wing news. It's worth noting that the person Gaines and her fellow transphobic cabal are attacking is a literal child.

Gaines' supposed concerns about athletic fairness are likely not even valid. The teen is thought to have transitioned before puberty, meaning she never developed any of the supposed athletic advantages anti-trans agitators advocate against.

Those advantages have yet to be proven substantive, even in cases of transition after puberty, according to the limited research on the topic.

Many on social media are outraged by the situation Gaines has caused for the teen.





Gaines began her career as an anti-trans activist after tying in an NCAA championship with trans swimmer Lia Thomas. The two athletes tied not for first, but for fifth place.

Hopefully, the money she is making hand over fist leading attacks on teenagers has helped assuage the pain of not placing fourth instead.

Support stands at 33%, with opposition particularly strong among Democrats—98% oppose it, while just 1% support it.
