Are you sure posting in this topic is wise, given your history of being unable to control yourself in such topics?

'Home to a judgment free zone' yet they have an alarm system that's used when someone makes noise lifting weights, a bit hypocritical isn't it? Fuck pizza planet, go sign up to a real gym.

While this is great I'm not going to go as far as to think PF took a stance on transphobia. They simply enforced the no filming or photos in the locker room policy that all gyms are very strict on. It just happened to coincide with an incident that involved transphobia.
I agree with this.

they took a stance on it with their response posted in the article. Technically they didn't have to say anything but they went out of their way to say it's a judgment free-zone.

Some more stuff from the Daily Mail article that I wanted to comment on.

'I just came out of Planet Fitness. There is a man shaving in the women's bathroom. I love him in Christ,' Silva began. 'He is a spiritual being having a human experience. He doesn't like his gender so he wants to be a woman, but I'm not comfortable with him shaving in my bathroom. I just thought I'd say it out loud.'

Keep this in mind for what comes later.

'I stepped out of the locker room and loudly asked the front desk, 'Are you aware that there is a MAN shaving in the women's bathroom I'm not OK with that ' The two men standing at the desk, put their heads down, and their tails between their legs! As I was walking out the doorat my back, a woman shouts 'it's a girl' I shouted back 'it's a man!''

I'm sure they did put their heads down, but it had nothing to do with being scared of doing anything... it's when they realized Karen was paying them a visit.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/a/a31c819e.jpg

'PF cancelled my membership and allowed the pedo to stay ,' she stated.

So much of that claiming to love the trans woman and this just being about her being personally uncomfortable, implying there was no animus involved. By her own words, this person was not having any interaction with the girl that was in there, yet still she throws the pedo accusation around.

These Trumpy people always like to parade how Christian they are, but you'd think someone who is more-Christian-than-thou would not be constantly breaking the commandments by bearing false witness.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Once you grow up, you realize how weird fitness centers & recreation centers are as a child. Because at the one I went to the most when I was young, they didn't let people use the child ones because those were reserved for events for schools & such. So if you went with your parents or they didn't let you use those, you had to go into the male/female sections.

Having young kids in a rec center locker room with old men 60+ with their junk hanging out is weird, people had no decorum in that rec center, even if I was with a parent while in there. sometimes this happens in gyms too which is why a lot of them have very strict dress code or behavior guidelines now.

If I had a kid, I would always go into the bathroom with them until they're around 14/15, but younger than that it's better for them to always be accompanied by an adult.

Because yes it was fucking weird being like 10 years old at a school function, the adults leading the trip tell us to go into our respective locker rooms, then there's just old dudes letting their shit hang out in there while kids that are strangers are passing through to get to the indoor pool/lap zone

Do you have a reason other than just "I was personally uncomfortable"

Seems like the main reason she got banned was for videoing the transperson in the bathroom, which is honestly the most fair next you're going to get. People who record/take pictures in the gym tend to be assholes, especially ones where they record/take a picture in the locker room itself and then upload it on the internet for the whole world to see. Most gyms should ban them in general, but I understand why some people do it (to view their progress and to make sure their form is accurate), but other people's comfort should take first priority.

It's common in locker rooms and whatnot. I remember when I was a kid my dad took me to a water park and we went to one of their changing rooms to put on our swimsuits, and as soon as I opened the curtain to leave my stall I nearly walked right into Old Man Dick because some guy with no concept of boundaries decided he wanted to stand naked about three inches away from where I was getting changed.

Yeah like I'm not saying these people are criminals or something, it's just really weird in hindsight & proves that people don't have decorum or boundaries in these spaces at all. No towels or attempting to cover up, just old man dick hanging out & it's gross

What is the pearl clutching in reference to, then, if youre so keen to explain? Bear in mind, these kinds of bizarre interjections are not made in a vacuum and both of you have a known posting history of virulent transphobia.

The lack of self awareness from transphobes about clutching pearls is nearly awe inspiring.

They just cant help themselves and come out the woodwork every time with their unhealthy obsession over transgender women.

Pearl clutching? Like the woman who was so offended by the existence of somebody in the locker room that she felt the need to record them without their consent and tried to call them a pedophile for existing? Or the folks offended by the woman getting banned for breaking store policy?

Or is calling that horrible the "real" pearl clutching in this incident?

If you're going to acknowledge the video's poster as a transphobic bigot, the bare minimum you can do is not misgender the victim.

Apparently. Also you know what's annoying? I never feel like I know the person's actual gender because everyone from the transphobic pos this topic is about to the news articles that report on it, are often untrustworthy as hell.

A few, but most of em have nothing to do with CE or this topic.

I was never suspended on 261 at all actually, so these folks are definitely mixing me up with some others, but that happens a lot here tbh

Why, should we be policing femininity in public toilets and harassing women who appear masculine and/or with short hair?
