[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only reason Planet Fitness kicked the woman out and sided with the transgender woman is because they were fearing public humiliation via media and social media because that's the day and age we live in. They didn't do it because they themselves believe transgender people should be accommodated, kept safe, whatever. And that's sad. I guess sooner or later there will be trans-free facilities and pro-trans facilities because some companies will actively side with trans people and some won't and eventually we will all be separated instead of included and connected in a way we can all live with. Sad.[/quote]

I agree that it would be sad if Planet Fitness was motivated by fear of public humiliation, rather than a desire to keep all of its customers safe. However, if a fear of public humiliation is what it takes to get a for-profit corporation to do the right thing, then that's what it takes.[/quote]

Except the "right thing" is to provide gender neutral changing rooms...I am going to wildly guess Planet Fitness is not going to spend any amount of dollars to provide their locations with THOSE to make all their customers happy. They kicked the woman out for publicity. Which they are now widely getting.[/quote]

Nah, the right thing is to allow women to use the women's locker room. (And men to use the men's locker room, but somehow there is never any bathroom/locker room panic about transmen in the men's locker room. Why not?)[/quote]
