Jennifer Sey, founder of XX-XY Athletics, criticizes San Francisco Chronicle's Soleil Ho for labeling her brand 'transphobic' for promoting women's sports.
Jennifer Sey , the founder of an activewear company defending women’s sports, reacted to a recent critical piece from a liberal news outlet by stating the word 'transphobic' means 'nothing' to her. Amid the ongoing controversy about biological males participating in women’s sports, San Francisco Chronicle columnist and cultural critic Soleil Ho wrote an opinion piece lamenting the rise of so-called 'anti-trans activewear.
' The article, headlined, 'Is this the next MAGA hat? Transphobic apparel is the new hotness,' cited T-shirts reading 'Save Girls’ Sports' and 'It’s Common Sense. XX ≠ XY.' Sey, a former US Gymnastics Champion and women's athlete advocate who founded XX-XY Athletics, was slammed in the article for owning 'a company whose sole purpose is to pump out anti-trans activewear and fund right-wing influencers.' Sey originally responded to Ho’s piece by writing an X post joking, 'This article wins for the dumbest thing I've read this year so far.' She told Fox News Digital about her work with XX-XY Athletics, touting it as 'the only brand standing up for the protection of women's sports and spaces.' 'I was inspired to start XX-XY Athletics because I looked around at all of the athletic brands out there claiming to champion female athletes and ignoring this issue that is right in front of us, which is more and more males entering women's sports,' Sey said. 'Not only ignoring it, but I would argue, in many instances, standing on the wrong side of the issue.' She also cited how, as a longtime San Francisco resident, she emerged as a major critic of the area’s local policies starting in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, sparking controversy that has not endeared her to local liberal media. 'The San Francisco Chronicle likes to troll me a bit. They don't like that I'm so critical of the city and their institutions and their governance,' she recalled
