My girlfriend Jenn, who has been fulltime for over a year, was offered a three day pass to Fuzion Fitness. (an Ontario wide franchise).
She went to take advantage of the offer, and was told she must change in the MEN'S locker room. Needless to say, she had a meltdown.
I joined Goodlife, Canada's largest franchise, and was told to feel free using the locker room I felt comfortable in (ladies, obviously). I have never had a problem, or even a long look.
Jenn has a meeting with the General Manager today. This is blatant discrimination. Ontario law states we should use the washroom corresponding to our presentation, but where do changing rooms fit into the equation?
Any opinions, or similar stories?
Late breaking news. Jennie talked to the Prez. of Fuzion Fitness. After a quick trans 101, they offered to let her, and trans women in the future, use ALL the facilities, including changing rooms. A step in the right direction for sure, but she declined to sign up. When you've been slapped, you don't go on a second date.
An OK ending to something that should not have happened in the first place.
