Lia Thomas teammate reveals identity, joins Riley_Gaines_ in stand for women’s sports: ‘It’s OK if I get some hate’ READ:
Paula Scanlan, who swam for the University of Pennsylvania women’s swim team alongside Lia Thomas, a biological male who identifies as a transgender female, recently decided to reveal her identity after having only spoken out anonymously. She said on The Ingraham Angle that she is no longer scared.
Gaines, a former University of Kentucky championship swimmer-turned-women’s sports advocate, has been outspoken about the need to “protect the integrity of women’s sports.” “Look, this isn’t something that’s anti-trans,” Gaines added. “This isn’t meant to be hateful. This is pro-woman. It’s about fairness. End of discussion.”
“Definitely speak out as early as you can about it, raise concerns. Make the environments that are letting this happen be aware that you’re not OK with it,” Scanlan said. “We really need to come together and use our voices, get as many people as we can talking about this. I think if we really get a big crowd behind us, they can’t silence us any longer.”
