Planet Fitness has refused to walk back its decision to ban a member who exposed a 'trans woman' shaving in the female locker room.
The statement, which was shared by the Libs of TikTok Twitter account, said although some members may feel uncomfortable sharing facilities, 'This discomfort is not a reason to deny access to the transgender member.'
The comments come after Patricia Silva detailed at incident at her Alaska gym where she saw a transgender woman shaving in her locker room.
Silva had just finished working out at Planet Fitness' Fairbanks location, when she saw the person, whom she called 'a man with a penis,' carrying out his routine in front of a 12-year-old girl.
Silva, who has previously run for Fairbanks Borough Assembly, told the 'trans woman' they should really be using the male locker room.
The trans woman retorted they were 'LGB.'
Silva took a picture of the person and shared it online. And she was so shocked by what she had seen that she recounted her experience in a Facebook video.
'I just came out of Planet Fitness. There is a man shaving in the women's bathroom. I love him in Christ,' Silva began. 'He is 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. I just thought I'd say it out loud.'
Silva - who has shared QAnon conspiracy theories on social media - also described the encounter in a written post online.

Even the mentally ill need a gym. Let Planet Fitness fill that niche.
I wonder how Planet Fitness will feel if one of these people ends up attacking and hurting someone.
No doubt. I remember seeing another video, several years ago. It was a woman in Southern California. The story was about the same, except the woman was confronting the staff about it, not the pervert himself. I was shocked by all the support the pervert was getting. Something is dreadfully wrong with A holes like this.
You have democrat friends? You are better than me. I don’t.
Another Bud Light coming up!
Fine. Then eventually, Planet Fitness will be stigmatized as “The LGBTrans-Queer Gym. They may as well create the Ads now.
A new gym, where the Trans “hang out”.
Sounds like a good time to start a boycott. All those places are is homo hang outs anyway.
This isn’t new. They threw a woman who complained out a year or more ago.
Hoping planet fitness experiences the same fate as planet krypton did
Planet Fitness will go out of business when the lawsuits mount.
Thank you for posting that!
I’ll post more stories on Planet Fitness on this matter if any come out.
And when a woman is assaulted they’ve set themselves up for a massive lawsuit. It has NOTHING to do with ‘being comfortable’. How many need to get access before one of them can’t help themselves?
Dang there goes my Silver Sneakers mbrship idea...
But the more I think about it I’ve sort of come to the conclusion after observation that there’s a lot of guys at Planet Fitness that wouldn’t mind a trans in the “mens” locker room at all.
Which brings up another thought... are they still called “women’s” and “men’s” locker rooms over at the planet pee-pee?
Like Bud Light and Disney, Planet Fitness forgot the old adage, “The customer is always right.”
Planet Sickness.
How long before they go broke? Taking estimates.
I wonder how buggy the average piece of exercise equipment is in those places...
Euw.
Possibly in more ways than one.
Yeah I was thinking of doing so. Gonna have to reevaluate.
