Riley Gaines认为，允许变性女性参加女子体育比赛是不公平的，因为变性女性在生理上具有优势，这会对女性运动员造成伤害，并侵犯女性运动员的权利。她列举了多个案例，说明变性男性运动员在比赛中对女性运动员造成的身体伤害，以及在更衣室等场合对女性运动员造成的隐私侵犯。她还批评了一些曾经为女性权益发声的名人，现在却支持变性女性参加女子体育比赛，认为她们是在"拆自己的桥"。她认为，这场争论是"正常"与"疯狂"之间的对抗，是客观真理与谎言之间的对抗。她还提到，她已经对NCAA提起诉讼，并正在努力推动立法，以确保女性体育的公平性。 主持人同意Riley Gaines的观点，认为允许变性女性参加女子体育比赛是不公平的，这违反了常识和基本原则。他还指出，一些支持变性女性参加女子体育比赛的人，可能因为害怕失去工作或被贴上负面标签而不敢公开反对。
