Brand President Jennifer Sey discusses Australia's new 'right to disconnect' law and reacts to transgender golfer Hailey Davidson competing on the women's tour on 'Varney & Co.'<br>T-shirts defending girls’ sports were condemned in the San Francisco Chronicle as the "transphobic" contender for the next "MAGA hat."<br>SF Chronicle’s columnist and cultural critic Soleil Ho wrote an opinion piece lamenting the rise of what she calls "anti-trans activewear." The <a href="https://archive.ph/q3Gyp" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">article</a>, 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."<br>Two female cross-country athletes at a high school in Riverside, Calif., say they wore the shirts after a transgender athlete, who didn’t consistently attend practices or meet key varsity eligibility requirements, was placed on the varsity team, displacing one of them from her spot. Athletic department school officials allegedly forced the students to remove or conceal the shirts, claiming they created a "hostile" environment and comparing <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/california-school-official-compared-save-girls-sports-shirt-swastika-rebuked-girls-wearing-it-lawsuit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wearing these shirts to wearing a swastika</a> in front of Jewish students. <br>The girls sued their school district for allegedly impeding on their First Amendment rights and Title IX violations. <br><span>Assemblymembers Bill Essayli, left front, and Leticia Castillo, right front, take turns speaking at a news conference "about the preferential treatment biological boys are receiving" and calling for the resignation of Riverside Unified Superintendent</span><span> ((Allen J.

What are we even arguing about?" the SF Chronicle opinion columnist wrote. "Besides terrorizing Riverside’s trans community, one clear outcome this dust-up seems to be having is a whole lot of T-shirt sales."<br>"All of this led me to wonder — who and what are profiting from generating more interest in this decidedly unfabulous anti-trans couture?" she asked.<br>Ho then called out former Levi’s executive turned XX-XY Athletics founder Jennifer Sey, among others, who she said "has been quite vocal about the Riverside case — and she happens to own a company whose sole purpose is to pump out anti-trans activewear and fund right-wing influencers." <br><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The columnist</a> also argued that one should not interpret the popularity of shirts with similar messaging popping up across the internet as a "meaningful wellspring of transphobia," but rather, "They’re likely sold with the same level of political conviction as shirts, in the same online storefronts, proclaiming, ‘Who needs luck when you have beer?’ or ‘I’m with stupid.’"<br><span>A giant Trans Flag unfurled outside the Supreme Court. </span><span> (Photo by Erik McGregor/LightRocket via Getty Images / Getty Images)</span><br><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/transgender-women-banned-from-capitol-hill-female-bathrooms-under-new-house-gop-proposal" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong><u>TRANSGENDER WOMEN TO BE BANNED FROM CAPITOL HILL FEMALE BATHROOMS UNDER NEW HOUSE GOP PROPOSAL</u></strong></a><br>"Between the dropshippers, the vendors looking to use real human pain and humiliation as a brand opportunity, and anti-trans influencers whose hatred of trans people seems to constitute their whole personalities, I don’t know what’s sadder," Ho lamented.<br>The opinion article met swift mockery online, particularly from Sey herself.<br>"This article wins for the dumbest thing I've read this year so far," she wrote on X. "Though I'm ok with the headline. Yes truth is the new ‘hotness.’"<br>Sey went on to quote from the article, "Studies of human genetics show that sex, like gender, is a spectrum, and the cases of female athletes like Algerian boxer Imane Khelif show that there are many, many ways a woman can look."<br>"No -- studies do not show that sex is a spectrum," Sey reacted. "How do people get away with writing such blatant falsehoods in an actual newspaper? Yes there are many ways a woman 'can look.' That isn't what's at play here. In fact, we'd really like it if this ‘movement’ stopped telling more masculine girls that they are probably boys."<br>Former Levi Strauss & Co.
