Our local Planet Fitness is actually pretty nice if you know what time to go to avoid the college and high school kids. And the price is right. But their corporate policies are not to my liking.

Particularly this one:

All members, including transgender members, may use Planet Fitness® locker room facilities, bathrooms, showers, and all other facilities/programs separated by sex based on their self-reported gender identity.

• We ask that members respect the privacy and comfort of other members by practicing modesty in the locker rooms and remaining covered as much as possible
• Wherever possible, Planet Fitness® clubs will maintain private changing areas in each locker room for the comfort of all members

Because stuff that the transgender mafia insists doesn’t happen, actually does happen.

Like this (I don’t have TikTok, but the clip is here):

Disturbing viral video shows the moment a transgender gymgoer appears to be masturbating in a stall inside the women’s bathroom at a Planet Fitness in California.

Planet Fitness patron Grace Hutson claims she encountered the ordeal while she was using the female restroom at the gym’s Concord location, just outside San Francisco, last May — but the footage only exploded online over the weekend.

What’s worse is the woman who noticed it and brought it to the attention of the staff was afraid to take it further because she was scared of a made up word (transphobia). Her boyfriend had to go in and confront the creepster.

And PF is run by a woman.

Planet Fitness — which faced backlash for allowing a trans man to shave in the women’s locker room — hired a new boss who had required employees to undergo “unconscious bias training” and supported “hiring through a DEI lens” at her previous company.

Colleen Keating, who served as chief executive at rental service FirstKey Homes since 2020, will assume the CEO title at Planet Fitness on June 10, the company announced Tuesday.

During Keating’s tenure at the helm of FirstKey, she was a signatory to a document titled “CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion pledge.” The document was first unearthed by the popular social media account Libs of TikTok.

The masturbation incident is not the first for PF, but is, presently, the most egregious. I’m sure there will be escalation unless women stop going there.
