Planet Fitness cancels woman's membership after her complaints of transgender woman in locker room

94. Well, usually companies that actually deal with trans-gendered customers require a doctor's note.

And what "Dude" is going go through the time and effort - and pay -for a psych visit, which isn't free despite the ACA, just to get a note identifying him as a trans-woman so he can go into a woman's locker room and ogle all the hot chicks and MILFs?
Especially since gyms and fitness clubs cater to a wide variety of women, and the "hot chicks" are usually outnumbered by the females with bodies that most of these "dudes" think of as dogs - you know, the old farts, stressed-out women going through some sort of physical therapy, women desperately trying to lose weight, masculine looking women working out, etc., etc...
For every one woman who's body type that shallow type of guy might be attracted to, there's at least 20 who won't turn him on. And most of these places have privacy changing rooms and shower areas, so unless he's going to hang out in the shower area the entire time he's visiting, he's not going to see anything he wouldn't see at a beach, or in the gym area that he would be in as a man. And if he hangs out in the shower area, he's going to be caught very quickly, and that would more likely be go-to-jail as a sex offender.
So, it's not efficient or logical for any cis-male to pretend to be trans just to get into a woman's locker room, no matter what Hollywood likes to portray.

I suspect that the complainer would have been just as aghast to realize that she was showering near lesbians who could have been turned on just as much by her nekkidness as some hetero man there under false pretenses would have been.
I also suspect that this woman would have complained and warned other females in the locker room about any woman using the club she thought was a lesbian who might have designs on her virtue.

Yes, any policy is potentially open to abuse. But honestly it's not very likely this particular policy would be abused. Just my opinion from years and years experience in woman's locker rooms and common shower areas.
