Part TWO Port Townsend Free Press Facebook Comment on the YMCA Trans Woman Issue

Port Townsend YMCA bans 80 year old woman. Trans Woman YMCA.

Regarding the YMCA Trans Woman, Privacy Rights, Dignity and Humans Rights issue.

DID YOU KNOW THAT THE PRIDE FLAG ALONE POSTED ANYWHERE MEANS THAT A MAN CAN BE IN AN AREA FOR WOMEN, AND WITH OR WITHOUT CLOTHES? I HAD NO IDEA THAT IS WHAT THE PRIDE FLAG MEANT.

When Julie Jaman asked YMCA Wendy Bart why no signs had been posted informing women that males could potentially be in the locker rooms, she says she was told: “‘We post pride signs, and we assume that lets women know what to expect.'”. I am a 52 year old Lesbian and I had no idea that the Pride Posters or Flags meant to “assume” that there can be a man in the woman’s locker room, and that I cannot ask them to get out while I change.

This is NOT what PRIDE is.

We fought for equality, not to take away the rights of those different from us.

To me PRIDE has NOTHING to do with Trans issues on any level, we all have separate issues as women, as men, as gay, as bi or lesbian each unique. STOP LUMPING US ALL TOGETHER. We are all divine individuals, we are sovereign beings and not “community” per se. I do not Identify with the current LGBTQ movement. This is NOT what we fought for as Lesbian.

The Port Townsend YMCA Story is a very important issue. Women are losing basic human rights to that of Trans Women. Another words, men who identify as women have MORE rights than biological women. It is happening everywhere. The YMCA says that the PRIDE Flag means men can use a women's restroom if they identify as a woman. You have no say. I am a 52 year old Lesbian and had no idea the PRIDE flag meant that. More Up to date stories and links on this. https://porttownsendnews.blogspot.com/search?q=YMCA

Port Townsend Leader Censors Port Townsend Woman, as is their Pattern and History to only allow one side of any story or issue. Here is Julie Jaman’ DENIED Letter to the Editor.
“Showering after my swim at Mt. View Pool, I heard a man’s voice. Peeking out I saw a man in a woman’s bathing suit watching little girls pull down their swimsuits In order to use the bathroom. “Get out of here,” I said.

This is the incident that caused a Y staff person to condemn me as discriminatory and banned me forever from using the pool – the pool with binary changing areas that my family has supported and used for 35 years. I sense I have arrived at the center of this topsy turvy world.

There is no signage on the door informing pool patrons that men will be using the women’s shower/dressing room if they identify as women. There is no place at the pool for women and girls to use who do not want men watching while they shower and dress.

I spoke with a Port Townsend police detective and with the Y’s CEO, Wendy Bart. This, so far, is not a legal incident. However, the CEO provided some information of concern. Ms. Bart told me she assumes the posted “pride” signs indicating the Y welcomes all people are adequate for women to know crossdressers and men who identify as women will be using the women’s dressing/shower room. And she told me that it is the law not to discriminate against such people and that she was standing by her staff person’s decision to exclude me from the pool.

However, there is no way around discriminating against someone in this sex classification vs. gender identity issue when it comes to modesty, dignity and safety. Someone is going to be trespassed. This time it was me: the pool manager, with no inquiry for my well being or concern for what I saw and while I was still in the shower, told me I was discriminating against this man and booted me from the pool.

“Pride” signs act as a euphemism allowing men into the spaces women have always trusted as safe from the eyes of men. The Olympic Peninsula Y is remiss in not posting clear signage on the dressing room doors and for not providing a unisex or family place for those who want to mix it up.

Port Townsend YMCA Says "We will not tolerate bias, hatred, or discrimination that leads to the oppression of individuals or communities." Yet they do, seemingly against white elderly presumably strait women who don't want a man in their changing area. Who has more Rights? Why Not Equality?

What the YMCA is saying that we are not allowed to protect our daughters from potential predators. Trans women are not child abusers but child abusers will pose as trans women if they it will give them access to our children.
