An elderly woman has been banned from a swimming pool after she demanded that a male transgender employee left the female locker rooms. GB News has the story.
Julie Jaman raised concerns after “hearing a man’s voice” while taking a shower in the changing rooms of the YMCA Mountain View pool in Washington, U.S.
Ms. Jaman asked the trans worker, Clementine Adams, whether they had a penis, before telling them to “get out”.
Speaking about the incident, Ms. Jaman said: “I saw a man in a woman’s bathing suit watching maybe four or five little girls pulling down their suits in order to use the toilet. I asked if he had a penis and he said it was none of my business. I told that man to ‘get out right now,” she told KIRO.
But after complaining to aquatics manager Rowen DeLuna, Ms. Jaman said she was told: “You’re discriminating and you can’t use the pool anymore and I’m calling the police.”
Ms. Jaman claims she was told that she was banned from the pool “forever” following the incident.
She added: “She didn’t ask me what the problem was, if I was okay, nothing about me. It was if she was just waiting to pounce on me. It was just stunning.”
In a statement, Olympic Peninsula YMCA Communications Manager, Erin Hawkins said:
Julie Jaman was permanently suspended from the Mountain View Pool due to her repeatedly violating our Code of Conduct, specifically, using disrespectful words or gestures toward YMCA staff or others; abusive, harassing and/or obscene language or gestures toward YMCA staff or others. We will not tolerate bias, hatred, or discrimination that leads to the oppression of individuals or communities. We will ensure sustained and meaningful progress toward equity and human dignity for all.
Apparently, “progress towards dignity for all” doesn’t involve women being able to change in privacy and safety away from prying male eyes.

Funny how it’s never a trans man causing offence in the mens changing rooms isn’t it?
There is a child safeguarding issue here. Young girls using the facilities in the presence of a biological male, irrespective of an assumed gender. That is what the YMCA should be concerned with.

I’ve emailed the YMCA raising this issue. I’m not holding my breath though.
The YMCA here in the U.K. did reply, I hadn’t actually realised this story was from the USA where I don’t think they have any safeguarding. https://www.olympicpeninsulaymca.org/alert-bar/all/official-statement-regarding-mountain-view-pool/ this is according to Washington state law. The child protective services for Washington state don’t appear to have the equivalent of safeguarding.
The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many to paraphrase Mr Spock.
I have asked them whether a similar situation could arise here.
I think if there’s one generation that is going to struggle particularly with this woke nonsense that’s partly responsible for turning the world mad at the moment its the elderly folk. They usually can’t change with the times quickly enough, on a par with the rest of society anyway, nor should they attempt to either on this particular topic. What is deemed unacceptable now was totally tolerated back in their day.
My white grandparents used to come out with some very dodgy and un-PC cringeworthy comments about people of colour so god only knows what they would have made of all of this bollocks. Not exactly Alf Garnett types but still embarrassing. Its a generation thing. And times change. Growing up in the ’80s the terminology my mother used to use; cringey terms like “Paki shop” or “Chinkies”, and to me it was all perfectly normal and acceptable.
So the 80yr old lady in this story cannot be expected to keep up with the ridiculous changes that are happening in all societies across the world just now and her case should be looked at sympathetically due to her age and the general attitude of folk from that generation. Her instinct was quite rightly in defense of the little girls and was alarmed ( as any woman would be ) to hear a guy in the ladies’ changing room. But they’re trying to make something that has been abnormal since forever into something normal and now we are in the wrong and penalized for not being OK with having somebody in possession of a penis in the female changing rooms with us. Its just absurd and sick quite honestly. I wouldn’t be cool with a long-haired man in lipstick who said he identified as a woman possibly leering at my little girl in the changing room. Its wrong on every level.
I don’t get it all and I’m only forty-one. I think it has a lot to do with not wanting to understand it, as it’s incomprehensible tripe anyway. Live and let live, stop shoving it down people’s throats, I say, like with everything else
I sympathize with anybody suffering from Gender Dysphoria but until somebody has all the necessary surgery so that they have the relevant genitalia for the sex that they want to be then I refuse to enable their mental health problems. I will not accept a man in a dress wearing lippy as a woman nor a female who looks butch and has grown a beard as a man if they’ve not gone the whole hog and shown they have the courage of their convictions by having gender reassignment surgery. How am I meant to accept a bloke who identifies as a woman seriously if he still has a penis, and more to the point, why would he still want it?
Ooh there’s clearly several ‘women’ with willies who support lurking in female changing rooms so that they can get their kicks invading girls’/womens’ privacy whilst they enjoy playing “Let’s pretend”.
You absolute sickos!
Again, I have to think twice, thrice – is a “male trans” a man or a woman? Is it the same as a “trans male”?
The tone and language of the YMCA statement is striking.
It reads more like the manifesto of a fanatic than the official statement of a serious organisation.
For talking sense, Viktor Orban, you are hereby re-Hitlered!

This is a type of mental sickness and it’s spreading. A sickness where nothing makes sense and all those things that would shock us up until relatively recently are now turned around as if it is all perfectly normal. If you make a stand against it, like this 80 year woman, you are vilified. Only the human race could devise such an insanity. The animals get on with just being male or female but we humans, apparently, are confused as to what we are to the point we – they actually – come up with all these pronouns just to have an identity. There is no rational argument for it and I couldn’t care less if someone calls me transphobic or whatever – because I’m not – I’m just telling it how it is. For me at least.
Yep, Clown World logic; when having so-called higher intelligence as a species makes you behave as intelligently as a lobotomized earthworm.
I agree with you 100%.
Yes folks, there you have it. It takes an 80 year old woman to stand up for all of us. How pathetic has our world become? I am sure the upcoming generations can’t wait for our departure so they can enjoy a sexless world. Sounds like a lot of fun
The sort of fun that would lead to the extinction of the human race over time!!
How were they preserving the dignity of the little girls who were possibly being watched by a paedophile man in a dress?
He probably asked her if she did breaststroke
The lunacy of it all really does remind me of this classic. And we’re all expected to join in the game;

“We will ensure sustained and meaningful progress toward equity and human dignity for all, [especially paedophiles who dress up as women to gain access to little girls changing rooms].”
