Amid the ongoing debate on whether or not transgender women should compete in women’s sports, an advertisement has garnered the attention of social media users. Video-sharing app TikTok has removed the ad by XX-XY Athletics, a sports apparel company. The ad in question focuses on girls' and women’s equality in sports, claiming that they are losing opportunities to transgender women. It further highlights the importance of biological women coming together and taking a stand against transgender athletes. The company's founder, Jennifer Sey, took to X and shared the notification she received from TikTok followed by the ban. American politician Tulsi Gabbard also shared the video on social media platforms highlighting the same. The ad comes at a time when the international athletics communities continue to debate whether or not transgender women should be included in the female category of sports.
