re: How are “women only” gyms legal?

Not legally they can’t. They will say it’s any other reason but they will get sued to shite and back if they say you aren’t approved because you are a man
The Boston, Louisiana, Pickwick, and Stratford Clubs, all private men’s clubs in New Orleans, sued the City of N.O. because of the cities harassment, charges of discrimination, and legal actions against the clubs based on Dorothy Mae Taylors discrimination ordinance.
Federal judge ruled against the city. City appealed it all the way to the US Supreme Court, who denied a writ of certiorari in the matter.
So, private single sex clubs are legal.

So you want women playing college ball with the guys?

Yeah, maybe not. Remember the cake baking episode for the queer couple?

Because whenever there are only men’s spaces women inevitably have to inject themselves into it. Feminists always feel the need to compete and be equal to men in everything.

And that sucks. Men need spaces too. Women honestly, as a class, have earned all the shite coming their way with men invading their spaces.

The baker made a mistake in admitting that's why. They literally could've came up with any other excuse for denying service and it would've been fine.

Because men at gyms are creepy?
Posted on 3/26/26 at 6:30 pm to Henry Jones Jr
All joking aside. I would join a white men’s gym.

Was talking to a coworker yesterday and she said she went to a women’s only gym. I said that was illegal and there’s no such thing. Sure enough, I pull up the website and it openly advertises that only women are allowed to workout there.
Isn’t it illegal to refuse services based on gender, race and sexual orientation?
Why are there primarily black colleges in the US? Primarily black media organizations? Primarily black dorms on publicly funded college campuses?
You can do any of this ^^^ if it's not advertised as primarily white.

I have more posts in this thread... read them, you might find I'm not a feminist afterall.
short version- I'm in favor of sex segregated spaces for men as well.

Private businesses can do as they please.
McSorley's, oldest Irish pub in NYC, is forced to admit women customers (after 116 years of being male only) due to a lawsuit by the National Organization for Women. NOW's Lucy Komisar grimly steps up to the bar. (1970)

It hurt my feelings you thought I might be feminist. I don't think I've ever been accused of that before.

If it's a "club" with a "membership," that's correct.
The problem with a gym is that they may say they are a private club, but they are open to anyone who pays the membership fee. They have no other criteria than that.
So if it went to court they would probably lose.
What if they had some credit check or background requirements? I'd have to imagine these national clubs have a pretty good way of preventing litigation.
