Along with registering impressive performances, the American is also a strong advocate for transgender athletes and usually voices their opinions on topics related to them.Most recently, they took to their Instagram story and penned a lengthy note, making their feelings known about being told that, as transgender, they were born in the wrong body. Voicing their thoughts on the same topic, they opened up about having a change of perception on the statement, as they revealed how their thinking about transgender bodies changed after they became an athlete:"I remember growing up one of the first ways transgender people were explained to me was they were people who were "born in the wrong bodies". In some ways I really resonated with that statement-especially when I was going through puberty and my body was changing. But as an athlete, that sentiment that I was in the "wrong body" never felt quite right. My body wasn't "wrong". My body was strong and fast and capable of doing incredible things. Even though at times I was experiencing gender dysphoria with my body, there were parts if it that I always really loved and was so grateful for," wrote Nikki Hiltz.Talking about the phrase that has now become outdated and stating it is a 'good thing,' they added:"The phrase "born in the wrong body" is outdated and isn't really used anymore to describe people in the trans community. And I think that's a good thing. I think it's a lazy and oversimplified way to describe the feeling of gender dysphoria to people who have never experienced it."Hiltz's Instagram storyNikki Hiltz recently made a major revelation about undergoing gender top surgery, affirming their gender identity.Nikki Hiltz opened up about winning their sixth national title in the 1500m event Nikki Hiltz's 2025 season has been top-notch so far, as she won the 1500m and 3000m events at the USATF Indoor Championships in February.
