J.K. Rowling Shares Powerful Video with Riley Gaines Promoting Women’s Strength in Sports

Share:

A new video featuring Riley Gaines has gone viral, thanks in part to a tweet from J.K. Rowling. The video highlights the challenges that female athletes face in sports today, particularly the struggles of competing against what the video calls the “woke mob.”

The powerful clip is part of a campaign called ‘Real Girls Rock,’ which celebrates women like Gaines and her sister, a state champion gymnast, who continue to pursue their dreams despite facing personal attacks and criticism from “trans” activists.

Throughout the video, female athletes are shown training hard, while background audio plays clips of hurtful remarks, including phrases like “Who cares?” and “Female athletes just need to work harder.” These women are often labeled as “transphobic,” “right-wing bigots,” and “fearmongers” simply for standing up for their rights to compete. The video concludes with the words, “Real strength, real courage, Real Girls Rock.”

This video was produced by XX-XY Athletics, a brand focused on women’s sports apparel, with Gaines as a brand ambassador. The video quickly gained attention on X (formerly Twitter), where J.K. Rowling shared it, saying, “This is the first and likely the last time I’ll retweet an ad, but I love it.”

Rowling has been known for her outspoken views on issues surrounding gender and women’s rights, often supporting policies that protect women’s spaces and opportunities in sports.

Rowling’s support of the video highlights her long-standing stance on issues related to the rights of women and girls, particularly in sports, where she believes fairness and biological distinctions should be respected.
