Gaines had this to say on the Lia Thomas ruling:
“I have only seen support on the internet for the judge’s decision. It’s a crazy world that we live in, where we have to have a court ruling on the fact that men and women are different and people applauded. It’s like people are applauding if a judge were to rule that the sun sets in the West. That’s how this feels. But nonetheless, it is a victory.”
