Olympic superstar Gabby Douglas is NOT standing by teammate Aly Raisman.
Gabby took to Twitter to blame Aly, who recently came forward with claims she was sexually abused by former US gymnastics team Doctor Larry Nassar.
According to Gabby, it’s up to women to not entice ‘the wrong crowd’ by dressing appropriately.
“It is our responsibility as women to dress modestly and be classy,” Gabby wrote while quote tweeting Aly’s post from earlier in the day about victim shaming. “Dressing in a provocative/sexual way entices the wrong crowd.’
No ma’am.
Fellow Olympic gymnast Simone Biles wasn’t having it and spoke up in Aly’s defense.
shocks me that I’m seeing this but it doesn’t surprise me… honestly seeing this brings me to tears bc as your teammate I expected more from you & to support her. I support you Aly ? & all the other women out there!

To be honest, we expected a little more from Gabby as well. Hopefully the 21-year-old uses this as an opportunity for growth.
