It’s actually disgusting this is taken seriously by anybody.

Congratulations on being the first man to win the woman’s NCAA championship.

The 6'4 narcissist comes and steals womens hard earned awards , also intimidates them in the womens locker room by undressing in front of them and them being forced to undress in front of a biological male. Hope all people who allowed this to happen will be taken to court.

“I didn’t have any other choice because not transitioning was not leading me anywhere” the irony behind that line just KILLED me🤣

The balls this guy has is remarkable

Not gonna lie regardless of how you feel. We can all agree it was brave of ESPN to leave the comments on lol

This MAN and the NCAA should be utterly ashamed of themselves. Disgraceful.

30 Years this would have been an SNL parody...

I feel bad for the girl that got second. These women worked their whole lives to get to this point

Split support? Nah…… it’s 99%+ of ppl who know this is vile

shame on ESPN to shoot this video and upload it publically

America has truly gone crazy.

Dude was ranked like 400 in men’s but now is crushing it in women’s swimming and ppl be like “there’s no advantage”… lost mad respect for ESPN on this one

This is completely and utterly insane. The actual woman who came 2nd is the real winner of the race.

"Trans women are not a threat to women's sports because we're small" are you kidding me

Generations of women have FOUGHT for rights to have our own sports then men like Lia came in and take that right away from us.

SHAME ON YOU, ESPN! REAL WOMEN DESERVE THIS ATTENTION!!

This man 's "happiness" and "peace of mind" comes with an expensive emotional cost for women.

Lia Thomas should absolutely be allowed to compete... against other men. The rest of the world is not obligated to play along with your fantasy.

south park really got creative with the animation in this episode

Okay you transitioned to be happy, but you being happy doesn’t mean it’s okay to make the competition unfair to real females who has worked their whole life for this!

So Your The 400th Male ranked swimmer, then you become the 1st 🥇 Ranked Female swimmer. Yet Lia says she’s not having an advantage??? Did I miss something?

Honestly, as much as people may complain about ESPN putting this vid up, the fact they let the comments stay public is a blessing.

Hey ESPN, why not ask the one question you should've asked? "Do you believe your body affords you a physical advantage over women?"

Bro, you’re a whole man. A whole man

Love how this is literally breaking down all the progress women have made throughout the years to compete fairly in sports.

William Thomas should have never been allowed to compete

This pisses me off can’t even believe this is a debate 😒

Fun fact: if he continued to compete in males category despite the transition, he would be respected by the most of people instead of being hated for cheating

Can we all just take a moment and appreciate how hilarious this is?

Oh wow the dude opens up about being the first ever man to swim against women in the championships. How brave.

His voice is soo deep bro..

Disgusting how these amazing female athletes had their dreams stolen from them.

I was a competitive swimmer for 17 years and can't imagine what a slap in the face this must he for the biological females that are forced to compete against him. So now apparently a man's feeling take the front seat to women's hard work...disgusting! That is actual misogyny! To put this in perspective, I was nowhere near the caliber of athlete that someone like Ruley Gaines is, but I worked out for 4 hours a day. 4am swim practice before classes and another two hours after classes, not including the weight training and calisthenics. All of that hard work for over a decade!!! This man comes in and makes all of the hard work these women put in mean nothing because he feels that his personal happiness is more important than their lifetime of hard work. What a disgusting and selfish human.

"Change entire body"? There are STILL going to be prostate exams in your future-

My wife says I act like a child, so I’m running with it. I self identify as a 10 year old and plan on registering for u11 soccer. My authentic self plans on kicking some a$$!

I don’t even understand how lia can feel proud to have won this. U re a competitor, an athelete, your goal and pride should be to win in a fair game

And the interviewer looks EXACTLY like I thought IT would look 😂😂

Correct title: Penn swimmer Lia Thomas opens up about being the 1st MALE D-I athlete to STEAL a WOMEN'S NCAA title

"not transitioning was leading me nowhere" That says it all.

this man must return his trophy

His feet got smaller.. went from size 14 to 13 and a half size😂😂😂

He must think of himself as a “hero.” Ridiculous

This is disgraceful. As a former swimmer, I feel for the real women fighting so hard and be slapped in face with this.

"I shrunk actually, probably about an inch umm in height, my feet got smaller umm about half a shoe size or sorr' a full size smaller...." [sic] - this is medically absolutely impossible! I call 🧢

why cant they have a only trans competition?

I'm trans and I can tell you RIGHT NOW that hormones don't change your height or shoe size. I was 5'7" when I transitioned 26 years ago, and I'm still 5'7" today. Lia Thomas does not help trans people, she hurts us! Go home Lia!

1 step forward for him. 100 years of steps backwards for women's rights. It's not even about him, it's about every woman he's walked over to win that award. I'm embarrassed for this species we call human kind.

Nothing brave about this man being in a women’s locker room

This feels like a chappelle skit ngl 😂 America is a mad place

what a joke, we need to protect women from these disgusting guys

Ten years ago, this would have been a parody. Now, this is our reality.

Kudos to ESPN for not closing the comment section

My friends and I still identify as being 13. We're gonna crush the Little League World Series this year!

As much as it sucks, 'your feelings' don't count when it comes to the sanctity of fairness and sportsmanship.

Bro, this has to be a skit. Look at the interviewer they chose 😂

Be who you want to be, but things like this should never happen. This is 100% an unfair advantage and she has to live with that, knowing that she has only won because she is a trans man swimmer in a female sport, end of.

Videos like this are the reason why KZfaq hides the dislike count.

The interviewer is exactly the type of person I expected to interview Mr. Thomas

I cannot understand how this was able to happen. It is total insanity, I have no words.

Disgusting

ESPN are cowards for promoting this man in his taking advantage of female swimmers.

The first man to win in women's swimming. This is history in the making.

This is a sad joke.If using steroids to improve athletic performance is considered cheating,how do you call this?

South Park is in live motion now???

If you want to feel “at peace” then you don’t need a NCAA title to feel that. Keep swimming - or whatever makes you “happy” but stop devastating young women athletes dreams. You don’t have to compete. Let it go.

A giant Snorlax interviewing a cheater with testicles. Truly the ESPN of our time.

ESPN should be embarrassed. Mr. Thomas should be embarrassed. Penn State should sue this clown for wearing their brand in public. 1k likes and 41k dislikes says it all.

I'm so glad to see all of these comments on a non-conservative-leaning channel/video. It's nice to see the general public are still sane.

Imagine coming in 2nd place. And knowing in your heart that if fairness had been given any consideration, you in fact deserved to be 1st. That woman should be given more attention than anyone else. A lifetime of work, and you are cheated out of a championship.

01:35 - "I transitioned to be happy. To be true to myself. It was a very difficult time. I was just stuck in this depression, and I struggled with suicidal thoughts..." So you overcame your problems by passing them on to a bevy of innocent female athletes who had trained their entire lives for a chance at the championship you stole from them. Okie dokie 👍

He looks like he has a smirk on his face because he knows it’s wrong

The female who has come in second in every race this one was in is the actual winner.

Reversing decades of progress towards women's rights. Keep up the great work!

Key words “ not transitioning was leading me to no where”

Transitioning is fine, do what you want, but to force everyone else to warp reality to suit you is absurd to a degree that I don't think we have yet to create a word for.

Congratulations to the first Man who win against women 😂

Stunning and brave to be a 6'4" man competing against women

This man needs to have all his trophies and time records stricken and taken back! The girls that came in second to him are the TRUE winners!

The level of ENTITLEMENT is off the charts.

This man is truly pathetic

You transitioned from what to what 😂😂😂 I can’t

The 35K dislikes really shows how pissed we are and rightfully so....

Can't stand this DUDE, I feel so bad for all these real women he's screwing over.

He should’ve never been allowed on the women’s team or locker rooms. Bodies compete in sports, not identities.

So sorry for the real women in sports for unfair competition 😢. Someone should start a Translympic for these people.

You can tell "she" feels no guilt at all for what they're doing. I find that to be one of the most disturbing things about this...other than some people are actually supporting "her".

400th ranked male swimmer to the #1 female swimmer is not an amazing story😂😂

"That's not your mother that's a man, baby!"- Austin "Danger Powers

Feelings aren’t a choice, transitioning both physically and to women’s sports is.

"I am not good enough to compete with men so I decided to be a woman. Now I am breaking records. It's amazing!"

Can’t believe y’all (ESPN) are actually trying to normalize/sympathize this. Be whoever you want to be, but from a competition standpoint, this is wrong and not in the least bit equitable.

He’s a dude no matter what anyone says. The real winner is the female that came in 2nd place she’s the real champion

Bet he could own those Little Leagues too. He doesn’t appear the slightest bit embarrassed. Sociopath.

The biological female who came 2nd to this man truly holds the title

As a female swimmer myself this is infuriating. People who say men don’t have an physical advantage over women are just plain ignorant.

If the whole country thinks these guys are cheating I wonder why they are still allowed to compete against girls. Is it fear of lawsuits?

Disgusting in every type of way.

What the f#$@ happened to our society that we allow this to happen?

I was stuck at my nephew's birthday party this past weekend. He's 7. I ended up playing basketball with him and his friends. I DOMINATED THEM! Man, I never felt so happy in my whole life. I can still remember their sweet, sweet tears as I swatted away shot after shot. Not in my house! Happiness. 😃
