  We got a question for American mamas. Dear Mama, isn't Riley Gaines absolutely
• 0:04
  fearless? Well, let's ask our American mama, Mama, Mama, and
• 0:20
  joining is now our American mama, Terry Netteville Boy Riley Gains I really do
• 0:26
  think she is fearless, courageous. She came out this week responding to a
• 0:30
  couple of different people, and one of the people she responded to was Leah
• 0:34
  Thomas. And Leah Thomas had come out and said, it just breaks my
• 0:39
  heart when I see opportunities taken away from trans people. And she said back
• 0:46
  to him, substitute the word for women for trans people. And does it
• 0:52
  still break your heart, Leah, because there were people that did not get
• 0:57
  to be all American, that did not get to meddle because you, a
• 1:00
  man, took their opportunity. Does that still break your heart? Exactly?
• 1:06
  She is so fearless. She's one of those that, you know how we
• 1:10
  say that we were born for a time such as this. Right, she
• 1:12
  should be in dental school. She should have the all of the records that
• 1:18
  Leah took from her, she should have those in her. She should have
• 1:21
  been the nation champ. Yes, Yes, and yet she is. She
• 1:23
  just got married, and she feels that her purpose at this point in her
• 1:29
  life is to stand up for not only her younger sister coming up, but
• 1:32
  for a generation of girls. Great example, because there was this person running
• 1:40
  for Senate out in California, Katie Porter. She's a representative from California.
• 1:46
  She's been accused of creating a hostile work environment. She says, accusing her
• 1:49
  of being a creating a hostile work environment is sexist somehow. So I like
• 1:53
  how she knows what a woman is then, but I love how they use
• 1:57
  these labels all the time. Sexist, racist, homophobic, They just throw
• 2:00
  them out there. But Katie Porter came out and said, oh, Riley
• 2:05
  Gaines, you're just trying to improve your own sports career. And Riley Gaines
• 2:08
  responded back to that one, I'm done. Yeah, she said, nothing
• 2:13
  has been for personal advancement. She's done. She's done, And so it
• 2:17
  makes me look at people like Megan Rippino and her stance. You know,
• 2:23
  she's standing with the trans women. And I love it because she said,
• 2:27
  Riley Gaines said, nothing has been for monetary value for me. I was
• 2:30
  supposed to be in dental school and by no means that I even feel equipped
• 2:34
  to do what I'm doing. This is not about me, and hearing her
• 2:36
  say that showed her true arrogance talking about these people. Yeah. But in
• 2:40
  March, when Rapino said, today politicians are claiming to protect women's sports,
• 2:45
  and she's going she and what Sue Bird are saying they're standing on the sides
• 2:49
  of the transgender right, and so she said, I can respect opinions that
• 2:53
  differ from my own, but I can't help but think that Megan would genuinely
• 2:59
  shive any men who tried to take her spot on the US women's national team.
• 3:02
  Best female soccer player in world history. Yes, I think you could
• 3:06
  argue with mia Ham. Yes, yes, I agree with that. When
• 3:07
  Major League soccer first came out in the mid nineties, ninety six ninety six,
• 3:13
  people said, mia Ham, you should play a major League soccer.
• 3:15
  Mia Ham, the best female soccer player of all times, said I'm not
• 3:21
  able to compete in Major League soccer. And at that time, Major League
• 3:24
  soccer was a pretty low level league. It wasn't like the best of the
• 3:30
  best playing major League soccer. She was saying, I can't compete with low
• 3:34
  level male professional athletes. The best female soccer player of all time. What
• 3:38
  makes me Meghan Rapino think that men should be on the women's soccer team.
• 3:42
  She wouldn't feel like this right now, I feel like she's getting paid.
• 3:45
  She's now she's virtue signaling, right. She's absolutely a propagandist, she's a
• 3:50
  Nike spoken Yes, she is getting paid to say these things, because I
• 3:53
  guarantee you if this was Megan starting off and she's trying to compete for that
• 3:59
  pace on that soccer team, and they allowed four transgender men to come in,
• 4:03
  she would fight like hill because those men, those biological men who would
• 4:06
  be trans women, they would run circles around her completely because biology says so.
• 4:12
  Now, speaking of which, and we're talking about how brave Rally Gaines
• 4:15
  is for speaking out on this stuff when she doesn't have to write. There
• 4:19
  was another clip that you shared with me about a discussion of a women's discussion
• 4:26
  and there was a college former college basketball player in that group who was saying,
• 4:31
  I can't compete with men at at the same level. Take a listen,
• 4:34
  and so it's like you're taking away the little opportunity that we're given and
• 4:38
  we all work so hard for it. Will be the end of women's sports.
• 4:42
  Have you tried confidence? Confidence? Can't make me bench? What a
• 4:46
  guide benches? I mean confidence? That is the most condescending, patronizing,
• 4:54
  what a jerk move. And that's the thing. They're so narcissistic in this,
• 4:58
  the ones that are speaking out on on the behalf of trans right.
• 5:01
  I'd love how they completely discount a real biological woman's feelings and opinions about this.
• 5:08
  Yes, they don't care. And this is what it sounds misogynistic.
• 5:13
  It sounds like this is such a man thing to say. Have you tried
• 5:16
  confidence? Are you freaking kidney? Have you ever asked Kevin open to jar
• 5:19
  for you all the time? Did he just turn around? Do you say,
• 5:24
  Terry, have you tried confidence? Can you even? What would you
• 5:26
  do to him if he had said that to you? Well, he knows
• 5:28
  the look that would happen. He knows what would happen. But here's what
• 5:31
  Raley Gaines tweeted. She said, Leah Thomas is not a brave, courageous
• 5:35
  woman who earned a national title. He is an arrogant cheat who stole a
• 5:41
  national title from a hard working, deserving woman. The NCAA is responsible.
• 5:45
  If I was a woman working at ESPN, I would walk out, you're
• 5:46
  spineless. This is how courageous she is. She is speaking for millions of
• 5:50
  women out there who don't have the voice that she does, and it's in
• 5:56
  It's not something that's helping her career. It's actually stalling her career of going
