Nike under fire for its alleged financing of children’s transgender athletes

The founder of XX-XY Athletics, Jennifer Sey, criticized Nike for her alleged financing of a study on puberty blockers for children and how would affect their sports and training performance.

Research seeks to discover how much medical intervention there must be a “quite” man compete in the sports of girls and women.

The first notion that Nike was supposedly financing was in an article in the New York Times published during the weekend about the difficult situation of Blaire Fleming: the transgender female volleyball player of San José Spartans who played a controversial role in the Women’s Volleyball Season of the NCAA of 2024-25.

Outkick pointed out that the piece mentions Joanna Harper, a trans woman who studies transgender athletes, “is currently helping to lead an ambitious study of trans adolescents that measures their results in a physical condition test of 10 steps before starting hormonal therapy and then, after having started medically transition, every six months for five years.”

Then, the article said: “But, she told me when we talked in February,” the current climate makes the study somewhat uncertain. “I assumed that he referred to the Trump administration cuts to the research grants of the National Health Institutes, but said that money was not a problem: the study is being financed by Nike.

Pak Gazette Digital has communicated with Nike to comment. The company still has no clarification on the matter, according to Outkick.

Sey appeared in “Don’t @ me with dan dakich” and completely eviscerated the idea that the study occurred.

“She is trying to understand what they call ‘retained male advantage’ and it is little enough that these boys can go through competing with girls,” said Sey. It is very bad at many levels. . . . Why is a shoe brand involved in this?

“But from the perspective of women and girls, we are not boys with disabilities. It is very degrading to think of us in that way. Do we do a study that says: ‘How many fingers can we cut a boy to make it good to compete in tennis with a girl?’ That is what we are doing here.

Sey said he thought that the decision to finance a study like this could have happened years ago.

“The senior executives probably did not know what was happening. This is something that happened deep in the organization,” Sey suggested. “And this thought of Harper, was proud of that, and talked about that … I think Nike says: ‘Oh, garbage. Now we have to defend ourselves.'”

Sey said Nike should leave and apologize and remove funds for this type of research.
