Go Woke, Go Broke: Planet Fitness Stock Plummets After Woman’s Membership Canceled for Taking Picture of ‘Man in Women’s Locker Room Shaving’

[Turd Fergusen]

Planet Fitness saw the valuation of the company’s stock drop this week after an Alaska gym canceled a woman’s membership when she photographed a male using the women’s locker room.

The company’s stock price, which traded at a monthly high of $66.92 on March 7, plummeted to a low of 56.46 on Tuesday.

The price drop followed an incident where Patricia Silva encountered a “man in women’s locker room shaving.”

She also claimed in a video posted to Facebook there was: “a little girl sitting in the corner. She could have been 12-years-old … in a towel kind of freaked out.”

Silva added that the man had been shaving his face and told her he was “queer.”

After she relayed her complaints to management, Silva said her membership was revoked for violating the rules against photographing other gym users.

The gym’s policy allows members to use the locker room that corresponds with their gender identity.

“Our gender identity non-discrimination policy states that members and guests may use the facilities that best align with the sincere, self-reported gender identity,” the gym said in a statement.

However, the policy is not a blanket invitation for people to enter the locker room of their choosing by asserting a gender that is not their own.

“If it is confirmed that a member is acting in bad faith and improperly asserts a gender identity, they may be asked to leave and their membership may be terminated,” the company said.

If it is confirmed that a member is acting in bad faith and improperly asserts a gender identity

How exactly does one confirm such a thing?

Gyms will be a thing of the past. You can exercise at home for free.

She took photos in the women's locker room and posted them online.
Of course her membership was revoked.

She should suffer legal consequences as well:
"If a person has a reasonable expectation of privacy in a location, even if it's public, you cannot take photos there. This includes public bathrooms and sports club locker rooms. It certainly includes private homes, including backyards and pool patios. If you take shots in a place where someone has a reasonable expectation of privacy, you are violating his right to privacy, which can get you in trouble criminally and also trigger a civil lawsuit."

Patricia Silva


"Silva added that the man had been shaving his face and told her he was “queer.”"

That's NOT what Patricia Silva said was said.

And said they were a "pedo".

She keeps going on about penis. If the person was naked and she saw a penis, I am certain she would have said that immediately.


And the stock?
Stock prices go down in the CEO sneezes in public.
Stock prices going down in reaction to this or not necessarily reflective of the stockholders feelings as much as they are what stockholders are trying to anticipate the public reaction.

Planet Fitness is fine.

Patricia Silva is a crackpot.
She ran for a political office in 2022

Here's her beliefs...

Need more? Okay...
From an article linked below, and another one from another Fairbanks newspaper

"Silva claims there will be riots and civil unrest if people like her are not elected and “if we continue to allow our city to be overrun by the socialist liberal far left agenda groups.”

Contrary to her overheated language, Biden has not “planted minions in every state to help carry out his anti-American agenda” and thousands of children were not buried under the White House.

It is not true that millions of children have been abducted and their body parts have been sold.

It is not true that the Rev. Billy Graham, the Queen of England, Tom Hanks and President George Bush were or are pedophiles and members of the illuminati, a secret society.

It is not true that 1,366 children were found dead on the cargo ship that got stuck in the Suez Canal, while 1,245 others were rescued. It is not true that the rescued children were going to be trafficked by deep state perverts."


These lunatics aren't going away anytime soon, are they?
Alaska is a conservative state, always has been, but she's so deranged she lost the election.

I'm starting to wonder if there was anyone else in that locker room with her at all..

I don't care about all her beliefs, if a penis was in the ladies room she was right to object
I'm tired of all this crock of political crap allowing anyone claiming a gender freedom to invade women's sports and private spaces
You only see it from asshole attention seeking males, needs to stop

When does the comfort/preference of a transgender person take precedence over a biological person's?

Answer: EVERY TIME.

When does the comfort/preference of a transgender person take precedence over a biological person's?

Answer: EVERY TIME.

I was just thinking this exact thought. And currently I'm sitting at: "I'm sick and effing tired of always taking the backseat, of always looking the other way, of always being accommodating and never seeing the same in return. I've lived me entire life by the Golden Rule. I treat others the way I want to be treated (until they prove they are an ass and are no longer worth my consideration that is). I'll take the middle seat in the back row even though I get seriously carsick, just so someone else isn't inconvenienced. I'll take the crappy, mildew-y smelling room in the cabin so no one else has to have the worst room. I do these thing mostly willingly, but when it becomes MORE than obvious that no one else is doing them, well, I've reached a point where all bets are off now..." Why does his need to shave in the women's bathroom for attention and thrills supersede my need to not have a penis in there when I'm stripped down? It is physically painfully uncomfortable for me. It kicks my hyper-vigilance into turbo mode, which is physically, and eventually emotionally, draining for me, so who's needs get met first? His trans needs or my autistic needs? I'd might have to chat with an ADA lawyer about this...

But most of all, no one has identified the person in the photo she supposedly took. Fairbanks Alaska has 32,000 people in it , it's not an anonymous city. Somebody would have stepped forward.

Parents might still be in the shower stall and the young lady finished her shower slightly earlier or they both got out together but the young lady was closer to where the penis was and parent hadn't entered eyesight yet
Twist and turn the facts all you want, it don't change a fucken thing, it doesn't remove an unwanted penis attention seeker from the ladies room

 

[everjaded]

There's literally a Planet Fitness employee in the background of the photo this lady took. She's causing a ruckus because she is, quote, "not OK with it".

And that's life, we don't have to agree, but PF is a business, and they can create and enforce whatever business rules they want to (as long as they aren't breaking any laws).

Patricia can do what all consumers are empowered to do, and hit them in the wallet with the loss of her business if she doesn't agree with those business rules.

Slandering this person and invading their privacy is not the way. She just makes herself look like a typical nosy unreasonable Karen.

Like in anything else in life, choosing civilized discourse is a much better way to try to effect change, vs going the route of squawking about it online and blatantly breaking rules yourself just to try to make your argument.

Yeah, she took a picture and broke the rules to prove a point. That much you got right
I feel the penis is more of a Karen than Patricia, you can be a Karen by your actions without being verbal. No issues with any of the letters, but I feel others also have rights that the progressive seem to not care about
I could give a fuck who's in the bathroom or nude in the shower, I'm an old, nude and crude extrovert, but I'd say close to 99% would have an issue, but they're all expected to suck it up for the one and I don't feel that's quite fair
I think some Karen's want to be in your face about their sexuality and that's a big part of the issue

Oh I'm not saying that's not valid, but there's a couple of factors I think ultimately make it hard to have any one blanket solution.

This person attracted negative attention because he clearly didn't "pass" as biologically female. That said, he was FULLY clothed and appeared to be totally minding his own business, unlike Ms Patricia. I can assure you if he was doing anything at all inappropriate we'd have most certainly heard about that from her too. LOL.

Wonder how safe he'd feel, in the men's locker room. There are plenty of men that perhaps wouldn't appreciate that either, that could physically harm him.

Or, what about the trans person that is very passable. Does that attractive female-looking person go to the men's locker room?

Does the very burly male-looking person go into the women's, based on the gender they were assigned at birth?

That could potentially cause a lot more of an uproar.

Does the poor intersex bastard not get to go to the gym at all?

I didn't know he was fully clothed, that right there makes a huge difference. Not purposely trying to expose himself and shock, maybe wasn't a karen
It's going to be a tough go, I grew up where nudity wasn't a big deal like it is here, as teenagers we'd go to the beach or river strip down and go for a swim, no one paid attention most of the people were in tiny speedos or nude anyhow

She signed a document explaining all of this, saying she understood it, their policy, before giving them a single penny.
The onus is on her.

Surely we're not going along with the
"I didn't know the coffee would be hot!!" brand of excuses.



Local Republicans in Fairbanks? They found her so ridiculous they voted for her Democratic opponent.

No Patricia, those "Leftist Candidates" won't.
It's not in the scope of the job.
Speaking on her video, she acted like she just didn't know about those trifling LGBT acronym things. Clearly, she does.


Its a grift.
She's the Tawana Brawley of Alaska.

One can still be anti-trans bathrooms and against rape and look at those two situations and say : Bullshit.

I miss the old days before PC became rampant. Years ago between husbands, my bestie and I did a lot of clubbing. One time I REALLY had to go to the bathroom and the line for the ladies room was a mile long. So I marched into the men’s room and headed for a stall. There were guys at the urinals and I said something like “relax, guys, I’ve seen it all before.” Did my thing and marched out of there. Nobody said a word. I wouldn’t even think of doing that today; it would be like an instant crisis.

I've seen women use men's rooms a few times in clubs, their line is usually so long it's ridiculous

I think the best solution is to start remodeling public restrooms into single use stalls. I was at a campground where they had this. It felt weird at first, but then made total sense. Eliminates the lines when there is equal access for all.

Similar story, but I was at the Prince Purple Rain concert at the Omni Theatre in Atlanta (01/04/1985) I was 14. I'm still shocked at how brazen I was.
