The Young Men's Christian Association, or YMCA as it's been called since 1844, was founded to get poor boys and girls off the streets and into a Christian environment.
Today I went into my local YMCA and noticed something right away. The bathrooms that used to say "Female" and "Male", now say "Gender Neutral" instead of Man and Female. They also have a "Gender Neutral" dressing room. This new bathroom designations for homosexual rights crowd are a disgrace and insult to this once great organization founded on Christian principles. I asked one of the young girls working in the Y what was going on and she said the manager did it and apparently it was directed from the CEO.
It (YMCA) was founded on 6 June 1844 by George Williams in London and aims to put Christian principles into practice by developing a healthy "body, mind, and spirit." These three angles are reflected by the different sides of the (red) triangle—part of all YMCA logos....
The national YMCA federation in the United States expresses its mission:
"To put Christian principles in to practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all"
Oh good freaking grief!!!!
They just won’t stop, “there is no rest for the wicked”!
Are you sure you’re not referring to the generic bathrooms/changing rooms that are intended for people with little kids? My local YMCA has those unisex rooms, but they’re in addition to the usual men’s/boys and women’s/ girls locker rooms and bathrooms, not instead of. They’re just small rooms that provide more privacy.
Have you not noticed that many YMCAs have been homosexual hangouts for a long time? Did you forget about the song from 1978?
I think they get a lot of money from Head Start. Probably have to toe the line or risk losing their funding.
Making a fuss about whether a single-occupancy restroom is labeled Men, Women or gender-neutral is just silly.
lol. Hasn’t the Y been the cruise area of gays for centuries. I would never go or let my family go to that filthy place.....I think it is a form of child abuse to put children in that situation and that was before the bathroom situation. Find another place to work out and stop putting yourself in danger.
The words on the two doors are Gender Neutral Restroom and Gender Neutral Dressing Room. These two rooms a few days ago said Women’s Restroom, and Men’s Restroom. The men’s restroom is now the Gender Neutral Dressing Room. The locker rooms remain the same.
I say stop attending and do not renew membership.
The building codes stipulate a unisex / family bath be provided on addition to men’s and women’s baths for people who may have a nurse, aide or young children. I bet this gender neutral bathrm is that.
The solution is to form smaller Y-like organizations that are entirely independent of the national YMCA leadership. Churches could do it.
Same with Boy and Girl scouts.
Gender Neutral is a term invented by homosexuals to get drag queens in female rest rooms.
