A Planet Fitness gymgoer was arrested after allegedly walking around totally naked in the women’s locker room … claiming they identified as a woman, something the gym didn’t buy.
Christopher Miller — identified as male by online booking records — was arrested in Gastonia, NC Thursday for indecent exposure after gymgoers claim he walked into the women’s locker room at a local Planet Fitness.
A shocked woman reportedly called the police when she saw Miller, telling the 9-1-1 operator a fully naked man wouldn’t leave the room … adding he identified himself as a woman when asked to do so.
According to WSOC-TV, eyewitnesses they spoke to say Miller repeatedly asked a woman in the locker room to lotion one another up and then hop in the shower with him.
Planet Fitness made a statement to the New York Post about the alleged incident … saying the safety of employees and customers of the brand is PF’s number one priority.
This new incident comes a few weeks after the gym company’s stock started to tank at least in part due to the company’s reaction to a woman who purportedly filmed another gymgoer — who also identified as a transgender woman — shaving over a sink.
The woman reportedly had her membership revoked at her local Planet Fitness in Fairbanks, Alaska … while the shaving individual was allowed to return despite some public outrage.
PF made it clear it allows trans people to use whatever bathroom matches their self-reported gender identity … though it would be quick to boot those trying to abuse the policy and/or harass other gymgoers.

Seems like Miller may have fallen into the latter category based on the allegations … and, now he’s facing a felony charge over it.
