One city leader suggested restructuring the locker rooms so that nobody had to change clothes in front of others

Within days, a teenage girl’s account of feeling afraid in a local locker room was featured on Tucker Carlson’s show on Fox.

During the Jan. 11 Santee council meeting, 17-year-old Rebecca Philips told leaders that she’d recently been showering at the Cameron Family YMCA when she saw a “naked male in the women’s locker room.”The YMCA’s management later told her the person was transgender and allowed to use the women’s locker room, Philips said. YMCA officials told her she was not in any danger.The story was picked up by several conservative-leaning national publications, including the New York Post.

It’s still unclear what groups may show up this evening, and rumors circulating online raised fears about possible clashes. “As of now, we are not issuing any special advisements to Santee residents or business owners,” he wrote in an email.In an interview, Koval said the YMCA should consider replacing its open locker rooms with individual stalls so nobody had to change clothes in front of others. Since that would likely be expensive, she said the city would need to help brainstorm ways to raise funds.
