Biles called gaines a &#8220;bully&#8221; after Gaines commented on the minnesota State High School League&#8217;s decision to disable comments on a post celebrating a boys&#8217; softball player. Biles accused Gaines of being a &#8220;sore loser&#8221; and body-shamed her by comparing her physique to that of a male. This exchange highlights a contentious debate over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/s-d-governor-launches-national-coalition-to-challenge-policies-on-transgender-participation-in-womens-sports\/\" title=\"S.D. governor launches national coalition to challenge policies on transgender participation in women\u2019s ...\">gender participation<\/a> in sports, with Biles opposing the movement advocating for protections for women&#8217;s athletics against male competitors. Her stance is seen as hypocritical, especially given her own history of advocating for women after being a victim of abuse. The article suggests that Biles&#8217; views contradict the growing consensus among Americans who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-fight-for-fairness-in-womens-sports-is-far-from-over-advocates-say-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"The fight for fairness in women\u2019s ... is far from over, advocates say - Washington Examiner\">oppose allowing men<\/a> to compete in women&#8217;s sports, raising concerns about the implications for fairness, safety, and the integrity of female athletics.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mynbc5.com\/article\/simone-biles-breaks-olympic-medal-record-us-gymnasts\/61742277#:~:text=PARIS%20%E2%80%94-,Gymnastics%20icon%20Simone%20Biles%20continues%20to%20etch%20her%20name%20into,other%20American%20gymnast%20in%20history.&amp;text=Previously%2C%20she%20was%20tied%20with,who%20reached%20seven%20Olympic%20medals.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">most decorated American Olympic gymnast in history<\/a>, Simone Biles, may have bit off more than she could chew over the weekend when she hypocritically took aim at the woman touting the same kind of sex-specific protections that paved the way for her domination on the mat, beam, and vault.<\/p>\n<p>The fallout started when Biles used her Friday night to snipe at prominent women&rsquo;s sports defender Riley Gaines as a &ldquo;bully.&rdquo; Biles was upset that Gaines noticed the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MSHSL\"><\/a>Minnesota State High School League turned off the comments on a post celebrating the victory of a softball team whose <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Riley_Gaines_\/status\/1931057465887728023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&ldquo;star player is a boy.&rdquo;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;[B]ully someone your own size, which would ironically be a male,&rdquo; Biles <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Simone_Biles\/status\/1931130395728498927\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote on X, tagging Gaines<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>She followed her one-liner with another <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Simone_Biles\/status\/1931129527679308054\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">diatribe<\/a> (that she shamelessly retweeted) calling Gaines &ldquo;truly sick&rdquo; and a &ldquo;straight up sore loser,&rdquo; which is rich coming from someone who once <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/07\/27\/sorry-simone-biles-the-olympics-isnt-about-you-its-about-winning-for-america\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">quit a key Olympic competition<\/a> because she had a bad vault day. <\/p>\n<div>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>One would think a woman who was <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Riley_Gaines_\/status\/1931204585927979219\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">preyed upon by a man<\/a> who <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Simone_Biles\/status\/953014513837715457?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E953014513837715457%7Ctwgr%5Ec57fbe8012ec7e6aed8a5441c7fb827f8396f845%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.telegraph.co.uk%2Fnews%2F2018%2F01%2F15%2Fsimone-biles-says-sexually-abused-us-gymnast-doctor-larry-nassar%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">repeatedly took advantage of her<\/a> would not oppose a movement that was built on the promise to protect other women.

It&rsquo;s an accidental yet important admission to the indisputable fact that men and women are biologically different.<\/p>\n<p>As Biles&rsquo; post suggests, the widely recognized distinctions between the sexes go well beyond the XX and XY chromosomes in DNA. Men, on average, tend to be taller, heavier, and more muscular than women. This is especially true of male athletes, who the&nbsp;American College of Sports Medicine&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/acsm.org\/biological-basis-sex-differences-athletic-performance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">recognize<\/a> as &ldquo;stronger, more powerful, and faster than females of similar age and training status.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>No amount of chemical castration or genital mutilation will change that, which is just one of the reasons why athletic organizations such as the NCAA have pivoted from <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/01\/20\/ncaa-embraces-radical-gender-policy-that-promotes-men-infiltrating-womens-sports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">embracing<\/a> radical gender ideology accommodations to <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/02\/07\/ncaa-had-the-power-to-keep-men-out-of-womens-sports-this-whole-time\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sheepishly ditching<\/a> them.<\/p>\n<p>The jury is still out on whether <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/claytravis\/status\/1931391217935483286?s=46&amp;t=iqVGJ7p59_ixT6pAAvvDQA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Biles&rsquo; NFL safety husband<\/a> agrees that men should be allowed and even celebrated for infiltrating women&rsquo;s athletic competitions. Biles&rsquo; public &ldquo;female-only sport for me but not for thee&rdquo; approach to the issue, however, is not only hypocritical, but incredibly unpopular. Approximately 75 percent of American adults <a href=\"https:\/\/www.documentcloud.org\/documents\/25919931-nbc-news-stay-tuned-poll-april-27\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oppose<\/a> men shouldering their way into female sports. And with good reason. <\/p>\n<p>Time and time again, men have tried to outperform women in their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/actor-hugh-jackman-wants-gender-neutral-acting-award-categories\/\" title=\"Actor Hugh Jackman Wants Gender-Neutral Acting Award Categories\">female-designated categories<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/06\/21\/10-sports-that-put-cross-dressing-men-ahead-of-womens-fair-play\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">weightlifting, track, cross country, tennis, MMA, wrestling, golf, cycling, BMX, and swimming (Gaines&rsquo; sport),<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/02\/06\/theres-nothing-controversial-about-bethany-hamiltons-stand-for-womens-sports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">surfing<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Allowing dudes to beat up (<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/08\/02\/vox-if-you-oppose-men-beating-up-women-youre-a-nazi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sometimes literally<\/a>) on gals who dedicated time and effort to perform to the best of their abilities is not &ldquo;uplifting,&rdquo; &ldquo;inclusive,&rdquo; or &ldquo;safe,&rdquo; as Biles purports.

According to President Donald Trump&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2025\/02\/keeping-men-out-of-womens-sports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">February 5th executive order<\/a>, &ldquo;It shall also be the policy of the United States oppose male competitive participation in women&rsquo;s sports more broadly, as a matter of safety, fairness, dignity, and truth.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for the nation and female athletes, Bile&rsquo;s opposition the movement to save women&rsquo;s sports from the transgenderism takeover is <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/08\/07\/simone-biles-life-proves-exactly-why-suffering-should-never-decide-if-a-baby-lives-or-dies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">not her first bad take<\/a>, and it likely won&rsquo;t be her last.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>      Jordan Boyd is a staff writer at The Federalist and producer of The Federalist Radio Hour.
