An apparel company named after their protection of biological females against trans athletes has called out Nike for what they deem is their opposing view on the matter. XX-XY Athletics released a powerful advertisement on Wednesday ahead of Oct. 10, ahead of 'XX Day.' X is the Roman numeral for 10, which in turn becomes a play on the chromosomes biological females have. The ad shows more than 10 females, ranging in age, all giving a stern message to the apparel powerhouse.
Dear Nike,' several of the females began. 'Why won't you stand up for me?' another pair asked. 'Why do you claim to support women and girls, yet when we need you most, you remain silent? Today, males are claiming our identity, our sports, our spaces. Men and boys are stealing opportunities, medals, trophies, and our future. It is not fair or just. In fact, it's awfully dangerous, yet you refuse to use your platform to stand up.
