3. Olympia, WA. - Unidentified male. Sexual Assault Victims Speak Out Against Washington’s Transgender Bathroom Policies.

YMCA Communications Director resigns, 300 families cancel membership due to YMCA policy allowing men into women’s restrooms. Prior to the statewide YMCA policy, the YMCA in Pierce County began allowing “transgender” members to use the locker room of their choosing. When the policy was formally written, the communications director (a sexual assault victim) told her superiors that she could not support this decision. YMCA asked her to resign, and promised 10 weeks’ severance if she kept quiet. After 300 households canceled their memberships over the new policy, in September 2015, YMCA scaled it back to try to appease the members that were leaving. By December 2015, however YMCA had reinstated the policy of allowing men in women’s lockers (and vice versa), stating that it was simply following state law.
