[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PF has no problem with the female clients being uncomfortably naked in the presence of a person who is biologically and physically a man, as long as it is PC. Any woman who is uncomfortable undressing in the presence of a strange man should join a gym, and there are several, that takes their uncomfortableness them into consideration.  [/quote]

But there wasn't a "strange man" in the women's locker room. There were only women.[/quote]

Ok I'm totally in favor of PF's decision in this case and I agree that unless someone is swinging their penis around the locker room, no one should be concerned about a transgender woman changing in the woman's locker room.

[b]BUT, it is complete BS to say that their were no men in the locker room. Just because someone feels, dresses, and acts like a woman does not make them a woman. [/b]It just doesn't. And it honestly makes you sound delusional when you claim the opposite. We simply cannot have an honest conversation about transgender issues when you mAke blatantly false statements. [/quote]

I agree. It's ridiculous to say that a man who thinks he's a woman is...a woman. He still a man. He's a man with a psychological problem, IMO, and he has my sympathy.

You don't magically become a woman by feeling like one.[/quote]

No, he's not. He's a transgender woman. That's the actual medical term for the person you describe. It's not magic, it's science. You might consider doing some research on the subject, since you believe yourself to be such an expert.

From a 2011 article in a scholarly journal: "The current medical approach to treatment for persons diagnosed with gender identity disorder is to support the individual in physically modifying the body to better match the psychological gender identity. This approach is based on the concept that their experience is based in a medical problem correctable by various forms of medical intervention."
