Women share their experience at the MUMSNET Forum
A 36 -year -old woman shared her experience in MUMSNET FORUM, a UK -based website where women discuss problems with parenting and daily life. She explained how her gym introduced a new policy, excluding an elderly woman on weekday evening.
She received a text message from 4 pm to 7 pm from Monday to Friday at the gymnasium, saying that it will be booked for women between 12 and 24 years old. She posted a screenshot of a message on a post titled, “Is this unreasonable?”
Why did the gym implement the rules?
According to this message, the gym introduced this change to support young women members. The message explained that the decision was made after receiving the feedback. It is the goal to provide young members in school or college with dedicated and comfortable space for busy hours.
The message also said that the gym will continue to be open to all female members outside of the limited time. The gym thanked the members for their understanding.

About 93 %of users voted for her favor.
MUMSNET users react strongly
Many users have expressed support for women. Some called this rule as “foolish” and “wild”. Others pointed out that the restrictions on women seemed unfair as they aged. One man wrote, “Why are women of certain age!? I will be angry.”
Some users said that there are too many gymnasium restrictions every three hours. Others said they would understand whether the policy applies only to school age girls. Some suggest that this rule will aim to attract people who are confused and influential or promote young brand images.

Discussion on intentions and influences
One user suggested that young women want to prevent men from approaching while the gym is exercising. Another pointed out that women over 24 are not women who are uncomfortable.
Some users have defended their decisions. They say that teenage girls are at a high risk of lowering their exercise habits and that special approaches can help them to maintain active state. They also said that when the company thinks it is suitable, it can change the rules and face the results if the decision fails.
