'Male genitalia' policy spurs backlash at Toronto women's spa

Toronto spa accused of excluding trans women A women’s-only, clothing-optional spa in Toronto is being accused of transphobia after a customer trying to book a service said she was told their inclusion policy won’t allow “male genitalia.”
Vi King tweeted about Body Blitz spa, which calls itself a single-sex facility, on June 9: “Tried to book an appointment for my wife @bodyblitzspa womens only spa was told theyre trans inclusion policy wont (sic) allow ‘male genitalia.’”
The tweet triggered a wave of negative feedback on the spa’s social media accounts, including one that read: “I will no longer be coming here. A place where my trans women friends are not welcome, is not a place for me.”

A Body Blitz Spa, which opened in 2005 and now has two locations, provides high-end water treatments. The spa has a bathing suit-optional policy for its clients.
The spa’s owner declined to appear on camera, but released a statement that said, “We support the LBGTQ community and recognize that this is a sensitive issue. However, because Body Blitz Spa is a single-sex facility with full-nudity, we are not like other facilities.”
The statement continued: “We recognize that this is an important discussion for single-sex facilities to have and we will seek to find a satisfactory resolution.”
Online, people posted their anger and frustration over the spa’s policy.
Another ******** commenter said, “using the reasoning that they want everyone to be comfortable in the space being naked is ridiculous as it implies that someone being uncomfortable with someone else’s body is reason enough to ban that body type from the space. This is ridiculous and is far behind the times.”
Wrote another: “Trans women don’t make me uncomfortable, but transphobia sure as hell does. Step up and do better so we can ALL enjoy your services.”
In a response on ********, the spa wrote that they will work with a civil rights professional over the summer to help come up with a clear and fair policy.
Others, however, supported the spa’s policy in their comments online.
One individual wrote that he will recommend the spa’s services, and encouraged the business to stick to their policy.
“Not every place has to be for everybody,” he wrote. “Men, (women) or any other group of people with like lifestyle or thought need their own places.”
The Ontario Human Rights Commission said trans people should have access to washrooms, change rooms and other gender-specific services and facilities based on their lived gender identity.

Honestly, have to agree with the spa here. This is very different than say a washroom where you just go into a stall, take a dump, and no one can see your genitals.

Obviously, if you're a woman, you probably don't want to be sitting naked to someone with a dick regardless of how they identify their own gender.

I think most reasonable people would agree and hopefully the spa stays firm in it's position and realizes that just because people are angry on social media does not mean people are angry in real life.

So you also agree that "chicks" with dicks shouldn't use women's bathrooms (urinals), amirite?
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

Fukkin lol though, I'm actually glad to see this mainly because it supports the fact that there has to be a definition for the physiological difference, for scientific purposes - so to say "male genitalia" is fukkin check mate. Haha.

Spa was smart by having a single sex policy.

Their issue is sex, not gender.

Exactly but just lol how libcucks are still trying to mold it so hard like with that spectrum chit. Like yes, it's true.. but there are still TWO (2) genitalia.. and that IS a difference worth noting.

Honestly, I really do think this will be different. As I said, this is completely different from a washroom/change room where the person is only briefly naked off to the side or behind a closed door.

Here you're spending significant time nude. And most women are not going to want to sit and relax next to someone with a dick.

There's a reason these women chose to go to a single sex spa.

Hopefully sanity prevails here.

As someone who lives in Toronto, I haven't see anything about this on social media etc other than a brief news story last night that simply reported the facts.

Maybe I'll be wrong. But I really doubt this will even be a story after a few days.

I don't understand what the problem is. This progressive institution is encouraging transwomen to fully embrace their transgender identity and truly become womyn.

Wrong. For example, Shaanxi Normal University (located in China) has urinals in the women's restrooms. It's fair to say that they aren't in a significant majority of women's bathrooms however.

Now that I've proven your statement to be false, do you care to answer my question?
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

Good Job Spa Man.

Who ever is in charge of their legal there has a head on their shoulders. Lol'd at "Single Sex" and "Male Genitalia", 4D space chess checkmate atheists.

But who was gender?
It is not so much the major events as the small day-to-day decisions that map the course of our living. . . Our lives are, in reality, the sum total of our seemingly unimportant decisions and of our capacity to live by those decisions. ― Gordon B. Hinckley
