Jennifer Sey has been speaking truth and standing up for women and children for nearly two decades. First, in 2008 when she wrote a book called âChalked Up,â exposing the abusive coaching practices in gymnastics. Despite her credentials (7x National Team Member and 1986 National Champ), the gymnastics community didnât much like the things she was saying. (Apparently you were supposed to protect the reputations of abusive coaches and Jen didnât get that memo.) But she persisted. And truth outed in the end.
She stood up again in 2020, speaking inconvenient truths during covid in saying public schools should be open because childrenâs education matters. For that, she was ostracized by friends and her community, and her reputation took a beating. But she persisted. And truth outed in the end. Jen has also had a successful professional career. She is actually quite the brand builder, having been named one of Forbesâ Most Influential Chief Marketing Officers 2 years in a row.
Now, Jen is taking all that experience as an athlete, an executive and an advocate for women and children to build something uniquely her own. The brand is called XX-XY Athletics, and it is the only athletic brand standing up for womenâs sports. If you believe in truth and common sense and want best in class workout gear, this is the brand youâve been waiting for. The truth looks good on you.

About "DeTrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult:"
Trans activists are all about speaking upâunless you regret your âtransitionâ and have made the journey back. If you question gender ideology, youâd better keep your mouth shut. But a compelling new book features multiple interviews with detransitioners and gives a voice to young people who were caught up in this damaging ideology. And their testimonyâincluding from the lawsuits they have filed against the gender-affirming medical and therapeutic professionals who treated themâis unforgettable. "Gay Pride Month" every June has become an unquestioning celebration not just of Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals, but also of Transitioning. Detransitioners' experience reveals that there's more complexity and pain involved in that category than most people will ever guess.
The number of teens and pre-teens persuaded they were born with the wrong body has exploded. Goaded by a toxic online âcommunityâ and assisted by teachers, doctors, and even their own parents, they are promptly set on the path of puberty-blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gruesome âgender-affirmingâ surgeries.
Media and activists insist that âtransitioningâ is the happy ending to these stories. But countless young people bear terrible emotional and physical scars. Adding to their anguish, the transgender community that once embraced them now wants to keep them quiet.
Now one fearless reporter, Mary Margaret Olohan, shares their stories. Based on in-depth personal interviews, Detrans exposes the unconscionable abuse these detransitioners have enduredâmanipulative therapy sessions, mental and emotional anguish, botched surgeries, and attempts to construct phantom body parts. Their testimonies reveal a truth so disturbing that transgender activists will do anything to hide it.
Detrans is indispensable evidence of the life-shattering power of gender ideology.

Tulsi Gabbard was the rising star of the Democrat Party. But the growing wokeness, fomenting racism, and intolerance were more than she could stomach, and she left. This is her story and a call to action to Americans who love our country and cherish peace and freedom.
A combat veteran, 4-term member of Congress, and 2020 presidential candidate, Tulsi loves her country: âI answered the call to serve and swore an oath, dedicating my life to supporting and defending the Constitution, both in uniform and in public office. I have always been an independent-minded person but became a Democrat when I first ran for office because I saw a party that stood up for the little guy, free speech and civil liberties. That party is no more.â
Today that party is unrecognizable: undermining free speech, antagonistic to people of faith, hostile to the police and law and order, suspicious of law-abiding Americans, supporting open borders, and using our national security apparatus to target political opponents.
Now an Independent, Tulsi calls on those who love America to stand up for peace, defend freedom and protect our democratic republic from those seeking to undermine it at every turn. Itâs time to leave the Democrat party behind.
