"More of this" - Riley Gaines gives honest take on Penn State swimmers filing lawsuit against NCAA

Riley Gaines recently shared her reaction to three women swimmers from the Penn State University filing a lawsuit against the Ivy League, the Harvard University as well as the NCAA. The three swimmers are said to be accusing them of violating the Title IX provisions.

Gaines shared a photograph of the lawsuit on her X account (formerly Twitter), as she wrote:

"A new bombshell lawsuit has just been filed by three UPenn swimmers against the Ivy League, Harvard, and the NCAA, citing Title IX violations. More of THIS. Serendipitous timing. It’s due time to hold accountable those who declared womanhood was nothing more than a feeling."

In another post on her X timeline, Gaines thanked the US administration for acting tough on this issue. She wrote:

"Things could've been so different. Gender insanity was the final straw that brought a lot of moderates to the side of common sense. Specifically, I believe it was the issue of men in women's sports. I've been living in a state of gratitude everyday since Nov 5th. Praise God."

Riley Gaines had previously filed a lawsuit against the NCAA along with 15 other athletes in April 2024. The 24-year-old swimmer-turned-social activist also called the organization out for being biased towards the trans athletes.
