What began as a normal workout for Tish Hyman turned into a moment she says she’ll never forget.
The Los Angeles musician and lifelong lesbian claims a trans woman followed her into the women’s locker room, stared at her while she was naked, and called her a “b***h” in a deep voice. “I felt violated and scared,” Tish said. “All I wanted was to feel safe.”
But when she reported the incident, she says the gym — EoS Fitness — banned her instead. “They punished me for speaking up,” she wrote online. Her post, viewed over a million times, sparked a fierce debate about safety, inclusion, and women’s rights in shared spaces.
Other women at the gym reportedly thanked her for speaking out, saying they had experienced similar discomfort but stayed silent. “We don’t hate anyone,” Tish said. “We just want privacy — and fairness.”
Her emotional video has since gone viral, drawing both outrage and support. Some call her brave for standing up; others accuse her of intolerance. But one thing is certain — the conversation she started is far from over.
Today he saw me walk into the women’s room followed me in and called me a bitch. I ran out into the locker room crying and screaming. This is why we can’t be quiet because people need to know what’s happening. Thank you to the men who helped me today. pic.twitter.com/TlpCNCF8SW

Because in the end, this isn’t just about a locker room — it’s about where the line between comfort and inclusion truly lies.
