Alaskan gym goer who exposed 'trans woman' shaving in the female bathroom in front of a 12-year-old girl has her membership cancelled for breaching its 'judgement free' rules

A woman from Alaska who was 'disturbed' after she saw a 'trans woman' shaving in the female bathroom at her gym has had her membership cancelled after the organization say she broke its 'judgement free' rules.

Patricia Silva who is a lifecoach from Fairbanks had been working out at Planet Fitness and was in the changing room when she caught sight of the individual whom she describes as 'a man with a penis' carrying out their ablutions, including shaving in front of a 12-year-old girl in a towel.

She advised the 'trans woman' that they should really be using the male locker rooms but they defended themselves saying they were 'LGB'.

Silva appeared so shocked by what she had seen, she detailed her encounter in a Facebook video.

Patricia Silva's gym membership has been revoked after an encounter with queer man in female bathroom of Planet Fitness. She was uncomfortable at him shaving in the women's locker room

The gym has defended its 'judgement free' inclusive policy and has banned Silva from returning to the gym, cancelling her membership

'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 also described the encounter in a written post online.

'I went to planet fitness… Walked in the bathroom, and there stands a MAN shaving… I looked at him, said 'hey' … he looked up… and I said, 'You are a man shaving in the women's bathroom, and I am not OK with that.'

'He replied… 'Well, I'm LGB…'

'Whatever that is… nevertheless, I told him 'You're a MAN and you're invading my space!'

'He wanted to argue to justify why he can be there… I walked away… 

'I stepped out of the locker room and loudly asked the front desk, 'Are you aware that there is a MAN shaving in the women's bathroom… I'm not OK with that ⁉️' The two men standing at the desk, put their heads down, and their tails between their legs! As I was walking out the door…at my back, a woman shouts 'it's a girl'… I shouted back 'it's a man!''

Planet Fitness in Fairbanks, Alaska touts its 'judgement free zone' to its members

Former Planet Fitness gym goer Patricia Silva has defended her reaction in a series of Facebook postings 

Silva has posted several updates on her Facebook profile over the last few days

'PF cancelled my membership and allowed the pedo to stay ‼️,' she stated.

The gym has since responded to what happened in a statement stating that they banned Silva from returning to any of their gyms in the area and has filed a police report.

'As the home of the Judgement Free Zone, Planet Fitness is committed to creating an inclusive environment,' a spokesperson said in a statement. 

They also stated how Silva violated gym policy because she took photos and/or videos in the locker room. 

'Our gender identity non-discrimination policy states that members and guests may use the gym facilities that best align with their sincere, self-reported gender identity. The member who posted on social media violated our mobile device policy that prohibits taking photos of individuals in the locker room, which resulted in their membership being terminated.' 

Planet Fitness policy reads: 'If a serious concern or significant doubt about the bona fides of a person's transgender or nonbinary status/identity arises and which the team member can articulate, the team member shall address their concerns with the member. If discussion with the member fails to resolve the serious concern or doubt, the club may ask for external evidence of the member's asserted gender identity. 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.' 

Silva since returned to social media condemning the decision to cancel her membership and revealing more details about the incident. 

Planet Fitness operates a non-discrimination policy that bans discrimination on sexual orientation

'This morning I got canceled. Planet Fitness is defending the man in the women's locker room, the man with a penis, rather than the child sitting in the corner with a towel wrapped around her,' she said. 

´The little girl was freaked out that the man was there. I took a picture of him and asked him why he was there. You're a man with a penis - you shouldn't be there. This morning I got cancelled. Planet Fitness is defending the man with a penis rather than a child with a towel wrapped around her. So I just want you to know. This is weird. It's not good. It's rather disturbing. 

´I would like for you women to stand up and stop these shenanigans. Use your authority. I took that picture because I felt like I was in an unsafe space so I am going to report this to the police today.  

´I want to tell Samantha and Joe that work there - thank you for cancelling my membership. You saved me a trip.
