Nike celebrates Pride Month with a doctor who performs gender surgeries for children, according to a leaked email.

Nike Hosts Panel with Surgeon Who Performed “Gender Affirming Mastectomies” on Minors

In celebration of Pride Month, Nike is hosting a panel discussion with Dr. Blair Peters, a surgeon at the Oregon Health and Science University who has admitted to performing “gender affirming mastectomies” on minors. The leaked email obtained by The Daily Wire reveals that the event will discuss policies impacting the transgender community and will include a Q&A session.

“This year’s theme is Together We Are Undeniable. The LGBTQIA+ community continues to fight for equality – their fight to be themselves.”

Nike’s Pride Month events also include a “family friendly” drag story time, a screening of the film “Changing the Game” which promotes the presence of male athletes in women’s sports, and a “drag brunch” where selected employees receive full drag makeovers. The corporation has also pledged financial support to six organizations advancing the LGBTQIA+ community with a total of $600,000 in funding.

Dr. Blair Peters and “Gender Affirming Mastectomies”

Dr. Blair Peters has made references to performing sex change operations on minors in a video titled “Meet OHSU’s Dr. Blair Peters.” Peters, who self-identifies as “queer,” cites an example scenario, saying, “I have an adolescent patient who hasn’t been going to school … and they come back to clinic two months after top surgery … thriving all of the sudden.”

In a now-deleted tweet from last year, Peters said he had “performed gender affirming mastectomies (top surgeries) for 3 young adults and adolescents” in one day.
