In a reassessment of her public legacy, Caitlyn Jenner has admitted that her decision to accept Glamour magazine’s “Woman of the Year” award in 2015 was “hypocritical.” Speaking during a wide-ranging interview with Tomi Lahren on the OutKick podcast, the former Olympic champion linked her regret directly to her current political advocacy against transgender women’s participation in female sports.

The 76-year-old media personality, who became the world’s most visible transgender woman following her 2015 transition, has spent the last several years as a vocal critic of trans-inclusive athletic policies. During the interview, Jenner explained that her evolving stance forced a confrontation with her own past accolades. “I started thinking, ‘What a hypocrite I am,’” Jenner said. “I’m fighting the battle to keep biological men out of women’s sports because it’s not right… and yet I’m a biological man who they gave Glamour’s Woman of the Year award to.”
