If you use a family changing room, i wouldn't think you'd need to disclose anything.  As long as you're appropriately covered, what can they really do?  Now if you want to use the women's locker room, then you may want to make management aware of your situation so they can properly field any complaints that come their way.  That's just my opinion.

I'm pretty upset and disappointed. I gather the majority of the women there had no idea I was trans it wasn't until some cis privileged cows protecting their vagina only domain decided I was suss that the wheels fell off. I've decided I'm not going back. Even if I did have the documentation I don't think I would go back. What a disgrace.

Since I am a zumba fan, I can tell you that some of the women only gyms are nasty places. I always feel that there's such a thing as too much estrogen. Women are competitive with each other and assuming that they did read you (which I am guessing they did) they felt you were a competitive threat. If you could lift more and do more pushups, then they will rail against you. It's too bad as well, it's the gyms fault really.


Trust me when I say this, and even saying this as a long time post op, I will say that, what in the goddam hell business is it of anyone what you may or may not have? You are going there, paying a membership fee and then working out and going home. Did they have some community showers or something? Was the locker room full of naked chicks running around? What, no? I didn't think so. Most women are very modest and protective of their bodies even in front of other women. I have rarely been to a gym over the years where there was anything more provocative than a woman in underwear. In fact most women don't even shower at gyms, they go work out and go home, just like I do. Heck nearly every woman I know won't even pee at the gym.

These gym policies are just utterly amazing and 99.9999% chance written by either men or women who have bibles in their purses. If you like the gym and the equipment and the people then stick to your guns. If you have doubts then go find a better place. Remember your money is still just as green!

Part of the problem is the perverts , and what to think of jealous husbands !
Here we talk MTF what do you think a FTM  have to endure , yes most men do not
make a problem of it, but only because the think   ooo pussy. And a depression for
him ,because of remarks or worse rape.
We are a long way from a good world.
