Re: Planet Fitness Revokes Woman's Membership After Transgender Complaint
This is all true. Businesses are not bound by the first amendment. People are always free to choose to go elsewhere.
If they lost business over this I am sure Planet Fitness would change their policy.
There's plenty of righties playing victim here too. The woman in question had the right to go to a different gym if she disagreed with this gym's policies. It should have been made clear to her that this gym, a business, had a certain policy and she could go elsewhere if she chose not to live with it. If it continued to happen (which may be the case), then she could have her membership revoked for choosing not to abide by the policy.
For all the talk of a business having the right to terminate an employee for not adhering to the owner's religious whims, you'd think the right would support a business' right to its own policy.
