Gym Chain Faces Backlash Over Locker Room Incident
Singer Tish Hyman shared on social media that her Gold's Gym membership was canceled after she raised concerns about a transgender woman in the women's locker room at a Los Angeles location.
Online Reviews Surge
The Beverly Center branch of Gold’s Gym, recently acquired by EoS Fitness, has been overwhelmed with negative feedback online. In the last 24 hours, it received more than two dozen one-star Google reviews, many referencing the locker-room controversy.
Gym's Response
Newsweek reached out to the Gold’s Gym Beverly Center through a website contact form but no direct response was reported.
Context and Broader Debate
The issue reflects an ongoing national debate in the United States surrounding transgender rights and privacy, especially in women’s public spaces.
“Today I was naked in the locker room. I turned around, and there was a man there.” — Tish Hyman
Since returning to office in January, President Donald Trump has enacted several anti-transgender executive orders, including “Keeping Men Out of Women's Sports,” which threatens to withdraw funding from educational programs that permit transgender athletes to compete in women's and girls' sports.
Summary
The Gold’s Gym incident highlights the growing tensions in the US over transgender rights and women's privacy, sparking public backlash and policy debates.
