Following former University of Kentucky swimmer and women’s sports advocate Riley Gaines being assaulted at San Francisco State University, the school’s athletic director has blamed "gender bias" for those upset with biological males competing in women’s sports.
"You’ll notice that especially transgender male to female is the one that people are focusing most on because it’s a gender bias in a way as well," Athletics Director Stephanie Shrieve-Hawkins told the Golden Gate Express.
"So what does that say about women, that women aren’t strong?" she added.
The Golden Gate Express noted a comment made by Shrieve-Hawkins in a previous meeting, where she said, "You wouldn’t see this with dancers or any other thing that’s physical. It’s just with this athletics [perspective], we live in this society that’s so competitive."
During the August 6 event, held by Turning Point USA, Gaines was assaulted by radical trans activists.
After allegedly being physically assaulted by a protestor while she was escorted to a safe room, protestors followed Gaines and continued to harass her.
"The prisoners are running the asylum at SFSU," Gaines wrote on Twitter along with footage of the incident. "This is proof that women need sex-protected spaces. Still only further assures me I'm doing something right. When they want you silent, speak louder."
Gaines told The Post Millennial at the time that as police escorted her out of the event space to a separate room, where she was barricaded in which protestors shouting outside, "I was hit, physically, twice by what I presume was a male individual. This only assures me I'm doing the right thing."
Gaines has stated that she will be pursuing legal action after the assault.
"Well, first of all, nothing has happened to the people who assaulted me," Gaines told Fox News. "The campus police did nothing, the student or the Dean of Students was there and did nothing. There will be no repercussions unless I have something to do with it. I will be pursuing legal action. These people need to face repercussions."
"And I was barricaded," she said. "Because after my speech an ambush of people entered into the classroom, turned off the lights, (and) they attacked me. I got escorted out of the room and immediately pushed into that room that we saw on the video, and I was trapped in there for three hours."
In response to a statement released by the university saying their students "peacefully protested" on their campus, Gaines wrote on Twitter, "I'm sorry did this just say PEACEFUL."
"I was assaulted. I was extorted and held for random. The protestors demanded I pay them if I wanted to make it home safely. I missed my flight home because I was barricaded in a classroom... We must have different definitions of peaceful."
