Woman’s Gym Membership Revoked After Taking A Photo Of A Transgender Woman In Women’s Locker Room

Planet Fitness Terminates Woman’s Membership After She Took A Photo Of A Transgender Woman In Women’s Locker Room

A woman down in Alaska had her Planet Fitness membership revoked after she snapped a picture of a transgender member in the women’s locker room earlier this week.

The woman, Patrica Silva, decided to film herself speaking about the situation when she said a person, who’s apart of the LGBTQ community, was shaving in the female locker room.

“I just came out of Planet Fitness, and there is a man shaving in the women’s bathroom,” she said. “I realize he wants to be a woman, he gets to be a woman. I love him in Christ, he’s 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.”

Planet Fitness confirmed to Fox News that the woman’s membership had been canceled for violating their policy on taking photos and/or videos in the locker room.

“As the home of the Judgement Free Zone, Planet Fitness is committed to creating an inclusive environment,” Planet Fitness chief corporate affairs officer McCall Gosselin said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

“Our gender identity non-discrimination policy, states that members and guests may use the gym facilities that best align with their sincere, self-reported gender identity. The member who posted on social media violated our mobile device policy that prohibits taking photos of individuals in the locker room, which resulted in their membership being terminated.”

The woman said she took a picture of the individual because she “felt that I was in an unsafe space.”
