Nike was accused of mocking women after it was revealed that transgender-identified biological male Dylan Mulvaney had entered into a sponsorship agreement to promote leggings and sports bras.
Mulvaney posted a video of himself prancing about in the clothing to Instagram as part of the lucrative sponsorship deal.
“Home for a moment and leaning into cozy workout wear life with @nikewomen ‘s newest Zenvy leggings and Alate bra! They’re so comfortable and buttery soft, perfect for workouts and everyday wear! #feelyourall #teamnike #nikepartner,” wrote Mulvaney.
