A
fraud
gym
selling
itself
under
the
guise
of
equality
and
inclusivity.
The
gym
itself
is
good,
a
range
of
equipment
both
cardio
and
weights
but
the
concept
of
separate
slots
for
gender
at
this
gym
is
outdated
and
a
misogynistic
tool
to
try
and
pacify
female
gym
goers.
If
this
gym
really
cared
about
supporting
women
it
would
take
into
account
their
opinions.
Women
only
times
are
non
peak
hours
before
5pm
but
still
pay
the
same
as
men.
All
gym’s
which
offer
off
peak
hours
charge
significantly
less.
The
idea
that
women
don’t
work
or
study
is
very
much
prevalent
in
the
approach
in
which
this
gym
has
decided
to
market
itself.
You
can
immediately
understand
this
gym
is
run
my
men
who
only
prioritise
the
needs
of
their
gender,
refusing
to
listen
to
rational
and
fair
arguments
for
women
to
be
treated
as
paying
customers
for
a
service.
Not
just
an
afterthought
for
a
flimsy
marketing
strategy
of
‘women
only
sessions’.
I
am
a
huge
advocate
of
safe
spaces
for
women
and
women
only
gyms.
However
speedball
is
like
other
patriarchal
businesses,
somewhere
you
shouldn’t
bother
wasting
your
money.
Other
gyms
may
not
provide
women’s
only
entire
gyms
but
they
provide
access
to
all
the
spaces
for
women
at
all
times.
Women
cannot
use
the
weights
sections
on
weekends
as
men
have
complained
it
is
distracting
when
they
play
football.
I
would
like
to
know
what
is
so
distracting
about
women
working
out
in
a
gym
environment
where
people
are
expected
to
work
out?
The
fact
men
have
an
inability
to
focus
on
a
game
of
football
they
have
paid
to
play
with
people
of
their
own
choice
is
a
discredit
to
their
ability
to
concentrate
on
the
task
at
hand.
For
a
local
business
to
be
taking
money
from
a
minority
group
,setting
conditions
prioritising
males
is
shameful.
It’s
an
absolute
disgrace
women
are
charged
£20
a
month
to
have
limited
services
with
decision
making
in
the
hands
of
men
who
get
to
enjoy
all
the
perks
of
the
gym
and
pay
the
same
amount.
This
gym
does
not
empower
women,
the
regulations
applied
reek
of
ignorance
and
uneducated
male
dominance.
Women
have
fought
for
years
to
be
given
the
same
opportunities
as
men
yet
this
gym
sets
back
inequality
in
a
matter
of
seconds
with
their
vapid
decision
making.
