Planet Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint[W:245:463:992]

Re: Planet Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint

Sounds like she's the pervert checking out other people who are changing and may be naked. I can't stand those nosy perverts who glance at me when I'm just trying to change quickly.

OK, but how do you know that the men's locker room isn't crawling with gay rapists? I suppose they could do a background check on all prospective members but that seems unnecessary for a gym.

not one person in this entire thread as claimed that those opposed to the policy are bigoted based on that alone. not one

You used the term bigot a couple of times and rogue seemed to clearly imply that being against the policy is to be a bigot... just can't find the quote.

Worked in an area... as in worked with the guys? An important distinction.

you have evidence it was an entire locker room? lol please provide that now because there is none.
Best part is even if it was (though it FACTUALLY was not) it still doesnt matter PF makes the rules :shrug:

He didn't say it was the entire locker room... he CLEARLY said that they had "recieved lots of complaints" about the guy... nice try though

yes that is 100% correct, I sure did, just not in the manner you expressed
I can't speak for rogue but I doubt it was ised in the manner you sugessted either

being against this policy alone or feeling that somethign else should be done is not bigoted.

calling the person a pervert sex freak who is stalking the womans locker room is 100% bigoted and a lie, insisting that the presence of a transgender alone is dangerous, is also 100% bigoted and a lie.

From what is known one woman was uncomfortable, not "an entire locker room." While it is fairly probable that there was another who didn't say anything, there would be those who are comfortable, and likely that as many men would be uncomfortable.

Two things... one, PF recieved other complaints and two, the general rule is that for every complaint that you do get there are at least ten others who do not complain but will hold it against you and/or take their business elsewhere.

This one has more texture than can be seen and a lot of very subtle yellow that brings a kinda theme to it that is hard to tell...



Try to see this with some land in the forefront, bottom part, with a lake in the blue, some purple hills next and then the sky with thunderclouds at the top... mixed in are lots of pieces of imagery for the viewer to determine as well as leaves and such...

 
Re: PERVERT Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint


Because judging people is inherent to humanity and you do it yourself all the time... it is just easier to recognize when we judge a rapist or murderer than people on the street. I would bet money you judge gang bangers wearing their grill trying to be pimp with some ho's on their arm...
 
Re: PERVERT Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint



WTF? I can't imagine any woman not being alarmed/worried if that guy walked in while they were changing... hell, I would be a little worried myself. ...and he thinks he is a woman? ****ing hell...

I was a watchstander in the engine room. Most of the watch teams were mainly male, since there are still few women in the military, even if the nuke program is getting more and more. In port, I could easily be the only woman on watch, alone in the plant for hours with just other male watchstanders, and few others around. Definitely a greater risk than a locker room, in an open gym, where people cycle in and out all the time.

According to the woman. Plus, they could have been the exact same complaint she made, which is no different than getting complaints about someone breastfeeding in the fitting room or just on a mall bench, but it being allowed by the store or mall.
 
Re: Planet Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint


AWESOME!!!!!

Re: Planet Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint[W:245]


You were in the military... you had to change because of orders and you were all trained.

According to the woman.

No I didn't. I changed with the guys for my convenience. I asked my Chief if that would be ok because I was having to walk a quarter of a mile to the gym and back to change into uniform, while the guys changed at our shop.
