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.

The Planet is NOT fit.
I guess I won’t be joining planet fitness after all.
Sounds like a good time to start a gym.
Planet Weirdo
I guess they want to go out of business.
A little judgeMENTAL there plaNUT fittinus.
Are they going to hand out free Bud Light?
Anyone remember this scene from the 1981 movie “Happy Birthday To me”?
For some reason this scene comes to mind as I read this article.

Planet Fitness needs to get the ‘Budweiser Treatment.’
Exactly 💯%
I’ve never understood the proclivity for “ gyms “.
You can exercise outdoors, while getting free Vitamin D from God’s sunshine.
And, you don’t have any rules and fees.
Hope Planet Fitness quickly becomes extinct.
Planet Witless.
So it’s ok to discomfort tens of thousands of normal people so long as the one lone freak is NOT discomforted.
In other words, the inmates run the asylum.
If an elevator door opens, and you see a man with a face mask holding a bloody axe, do you get on?
—Ever hear about rape?
—Ever hear about pedophiles?
—Ever see what a toilet looks like after a few men demonstrate their artistic peeing skills? Women then sit on that or have to clean it up.
There is no defense for Planet Fitness.
It is a reason to exclude Planet Fitness.
Some city parks and trails now have free fitness equipment
If you haven’t already, obviously time to dump any shares of Planet Fitness.
People,... you don’t need a gym to stay fit.
In your home you can run stairs and/or run in place, and calisthenic exercises are numerous.
Outside, of course, is running, bicycling, and a good aerobic workout: the old bucket and sponge method of washing the car at a brisk pace. Mowing the yard with a push mower is good also.
If you desire a ‘ripped’ body.... why? If your job or spouse doesn’t require you to, then be satisfied to just stay fit. After all, having a 600+ hp car isn’t all that great if you never use half that much power.
