California woman says gym revoked her membership for calling out man in women’s locker room
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A California woman says her gym membership was revoked after she objected to a man repeatedly entering the women’s locker room at a Los Angeles Gold’s Gym.
Tish Hyman posted a video on social media showing a confrontation that took place on Nov. 2. The man, who is seen walking toward the women’s restroom as other members express concern, has reportedly been using the women’s locker room for weeks.
Hyman says multiple women filed complaints, but nothing changed.

“I need everyone to hear this,” Hyman wrote on Instagram. “Multiple women and I have repeatedly made written reports on this man for coming into our women’s locker room harassing us, and the gym staff has done absolutely nothing!!”
Hyman said she was terrified when the man entered the locker room behind her and allegedly called her a “b—-” in a deep, angry voice.
“I RAN OUT INTO THE GYM SCREAMING THERE IS A MAN IN THE REST ROOM!!” she wrote. “I called for help and men in the gym got involved, THANK GOD and the staff finally decided to act.”
Staff eventually removed the man from the area, but they kicked Hyman out, too.
“They removed him — but then they turned around and terminated my membership too, as if I was being punished for speaking up,” she wrote. “I WAS LITERALLY SCARED. THE WOMEN IN THE GYM ALL AGREED WITH ME. MANY were relieved that someone finally said something out loud.”
Hyman added: “Should we keep giving gyms our money if they won’t protect us? IS IT TIME we CANCEL our GYM memberships until they understand that women’s safety isn’t negotiable!??”

Tish Hyman: ‘I’m being punished for not wanting to be naked in front of men in the restroom.’
Later, on her Instagram stories, Hyman lamented losing her gym membership and detailed the online harassment she’s since received from people calling her names like “TERF” (trans-exclusionary radical feminist).
“I’m so sad right now because I just feel like I’m being punished for speaking up. I feel like I’m being punished for not wanting to be naked in front of men in the restroom,” she said. “I feel like I’m being assaulted for not wanting to do this. It’s not right.”
Another gym member posted video of Hyman after her removal, in which she is seen speaking out loudly to others nearby.
“Everybody saw that man in the f—ing locker room,” she said. “No one’s saying s—. And I’m f—ing done with it.”
OutKick’s Riley Gaines shared the footage on X, praising Hyman for refusing to stay silent.
“If we saw boldness like this back in 2020, this insanity would’ve never been allowed to fester like it has,” Gaines wrote. “God bless you for speaking the truth loudly.”

Hyman has documented other incidents involving the same man. In a video posted last week, the individual is seen walking through the locker room wearing a sports bra and reportedly told Hyman she should leave the locker room because “straight women like d—, and they’re probably looking at me more than you.”
Keep in mind underage girls also use this locker room.
Gold’s Gym Beverly Center, where the incident occurred, was acquired by EōS Fitness last week. OutKick reached out to both Gold’s Gym and EōS Fitness for comment but did not immediately receive a response.
It’s worth noting, though, that many gyms have policies prohibiting the use of cameras or recording devices in locker rooms, and the company could cite that rule as justification for terminating Hyman’s membership.
Just Another Day In California
Under California law, individuals are allowed to use restrooms and locker rooms that align with their self-declared gender identity. That includes gyms.

“You have the right to use the restroom consistent with your gender identity… both in public settings, like schools, and at your workplace,” California’s Attorney General states in its official “Know Your Rights” guidance.
Hyman is now urging others to speak up and to consider walking away from gyms and other establishments that fail to protect women.
“Men, think of your wives, sisters, mothers and daughters,” she wrote on Instagram. “Stop men from bullying, harassing and assaulting women in locker rooms.”

Nuggets sign former Denver West basketball player Alpha Diallo out of EuroLeague
The Nuggets have made a habit of signing bench players with Colorado ties.
The latest homecoming they’ve arranged is for Alpha Diallo, who played a season of high school basketball at Denver West and is now signing a one-year, $1.4 million minimum contract with Denver in NBA free agency, a league source told The Denver Post on Sunday.
Diallo, 29, was named Defensive Player of the Year in the EuroLeague last season. This will be his first foray into the NBA after a five-year stint with AS Monaco. He recently committed to join Dubai Basketball on a multiyear deal, according to a report by the European media outlet BasketNews, but his contract included a clause granting his release if he left for the NBA by July 15.
The Nuggets have signed Diallo, Reggie Jackson (Palmer High School), David Roddy (Colorado State) and KJ Simpson (CU) to various deals in the last three years.
Born in New York, Diallo helped lead Denver West to the Colorado Class 4A Sweet 16 as a sophomore. He transferred to Lincoln High before his junior season, but he was ruled ineligible to compete for the entire school year due to what CHSAA deemed an implicit recruiting violation; Lincoln’s coach at the time had just coached Diallo in a summer tournament.
The eligibility fight with CHSAA eventually led Diallo to leave the state. He returned to the East Coast and played four years of college basketball at Providence, where he earned Second Team All-Big East honors twice.
Signing Diallo is the latest example of Denver’s attempt to prioritize defense and athleticism around Nikola Jokic. Last month, the Nuggets drafted Trevon Brazile and Bryce Hopkins in the second round, betting on defensive upside in both cases. They’ve also replaced backup center Jonas Valanciunas with the younger, bouncier Marvin Bagley III on a veteran minimum contract.
Denver tentatively has 12 players under contract on its 15-man roster for the 2026-27 season now: Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, Cam Johnson, Christian Braun, Zeke Nnaji, Julian Strawther, DaRon Holmes II, Tyus Jones, Bagley, Brazile and Diallo. Restricted free agency negotiations have not yet been resolved with Peyton Watson and Spencer Jones.
Diallo will count for $2.45 million toward the luxury tax despite his $1.4 million salary, the minimum for NBA rookies. The accounting quirk exists so that owners aren’t incentivized to overlook more experienced free agents for tax purposes; the tax ramifications are equal for all minimum signings, regardless of NBA service time.

Portland aims to top Seattle’s 405 e-bikes with 2-mile Guinness record ride and party
PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — Portlanders are being invited to help BIKETOWN mark its 10th birthday with what organizers hope will become a new world record: the largest electric bicycle party and ride.
The Portland Bureau of Transportation is organizing a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS attempt on Sunday, July 19, aiming to beat the current record set in Seattle in 2018 with 405 e-bikes. PBOT is seeking the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the Largest Electric Bicycle Party and Ride.
Riders will gather at Salmon Springs, the fountain in Tom McCall Waterfront Park, starting at 8:30 a.m.
Check-in begins at 8:30 a.m., and the ride is scheduled to start at 9:30 a.m. from Southwest Naito Parkway and Southwest Salmon Street. PBOT said the date is “10-years-to-the-day since BIKETOWN service started with a maiden voyage group ride across the Willamette River.”
“I can’t wait to see all of Portland come out to celebrate the ways BIKETOWN has transformed our community,” PBOT Director Millicent Williams said. “Since 2016, BIKETOWN has introduced thousands of Portlanders to biking, and e-bikes in particular, and made biking more accessible for more people. By breaking this GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title, we will remind everyone of Portland’s place at the front of the pack of leading bike cities across the nation.”
PBOT said the event is designed for massive participation and will follow a 2-mile loop that includes Tilikum Crossing, the Eastbank Esplanade and the Hawthorne Bridge, taking place mostly on the Waterfront and Eastbank Esplanade. Organizers said participants should expect a slow ride with some stops and are asked to stay on the route to be counted, while watching for pedestrians and other riders.
People riding personal e-bikes and pedal bikes are welcome, though PBOT said only e-bikes will be counted toward the record attempt. PBOT said registration is strongly encouraged to ensure riders are counted and that participants will need to provide their e-bike make and model. Riders are also encouraged to arrive early to check in and get a bib.
For people without an e-bike, PBOT said BIKETOWN will have bikes available to reserve on a first-come, first-served basis, with early registration recommended. Riders must be 16 or older to use BIKETOWN.
After the ride, PBOT said the event will conclude with a celebration featuring vendors, refreshments and remarks from City of Portland and BIKETOWN partners. PBOT said an official judge from Guinness World Records is expected to verify the attempt and confirm whether Portland set a new record.
PBOT also encouraged participants to head to the Portland Pride Parade and Festival afterward. The first 1,000 people who register for the ride will receive free entry to the Pride Festival, supported by BIKETOWN founding partner and title sponsor Nike.
PBOT said the event is possible with financial support from Nike, with additional support from Lyft and the City of Portland.
BIKETOWN launched July 19, 2016, with 1,000 bikes. PBOT said the system has deployed 3,000 electric pedal-assist bicycles serving a 50.5-square-mile service area, including portions of East Portland. BIKETOWN is a partnership between the City of Portland’s PBOT and Nike, and is operated by Lyft.
