Fox news contributor: US Gym banning transphobic woman is ‘craziness’
By Josh Haggis
A Fox News contributor has argued that it’s “craziness” that a US gym banned a woman for being transphobic.
Planet Fitness in Michigan revoked a woman’s membership last week after she repeatedly complained to both the gym staff and other members about having to share the women’s dressing room with a transgender person. Find out more here.
In an interview on Fox News this week, Dr. Keith Albow continually referred to the trans woman in question by the wrong gender and claimed that it’s ridiculous that the gym sided with her desire to use the female changing rooms.
“It’s tough to speak about because we’re so politically correct now that we get tongue-tied,” he said. “We can’t say the obvious, which is this is craziness.”
“You’re kicking out members because they feel uncomfortable that someone who seems to be a man to them and is genetically is looking at them naked when they’re unclothed as women? That’s craziness,” he added.
