.Stephen A Smith agrees with Riley Gaines that the solution for trans athletes can't be men infiltrating women's sports

@ClayTravis @stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ The issue is transgender people have mental health issues. We need to start there and stop the nonsense.

There are no such thing as "trans" athletes, because there is no such thing as "trans" people. People cannot change their sex. There are very mentally/emotionally ill people who can choose (sadly) to mutilate themselves and poison themselves chemically, but there's no way on this earth that changes your sex. Just ask your dna.

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ Riley is so well spoken 👏🏻 Bravo 🤩

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ Nice, Riley!

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ Great to see this conversation happening!

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ Can anyone name one of example of a Female transitioning to a man to compete against Men? Some on - anybody? Yeah, I'll wait...

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ With the apparent millions of transgender athletes, some of whom have deep pockets, why don’t they fund trans leagues? No one would be stopping them. It might be the most popular thing ever. They could bring back the Olympic favorite pkg, “up close and personal.”

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ Glad to finally hear @Riley_Gaines_ say the categories weren’t originally created based on how you feel (identify). Athletes were rightfully separated based on their biological sex due to their obvious physical differences. A third category is not required.

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ The fact that so many put political allegiance above objective reality scares me. It's Orwellian.

@stephenasmith @Riley_Gaines_ The problem with the “trans as its own category” solution is that it gives men two categories. And raises mid-level athletes to a mythical level of athleticism that is not accurate. This isn’t inclusion, it’s elevation of a protected population.
