Woman films and confronts trans gym-goer masturbating in ladies room at Planet Fitness

January 5, 2026 | | Print Article

A disturbing video that is now going viral purports to show a transgender person masturbating in a gym bathroom.

The video, first posted on TikTok, made its way over to X, where users were shocked by what they saw. While the explicit content was not directly filmed, shadows under the stall show what appears to be a man masturbating in one of the stalls of the female bathroom. The location was later identified as a California Planet Fitness.

From The New York Post:

Planet Fitness patron Grace Hutson claims she encountered the ordeal while she was using the female restroom at the gym’s Concord location, just outside San Francisco, last May — but the footage only exploded online over the weekend.

The clip, which she originally posted on TikTok, showed the shadow of an unidentified person appearing to perform the sex act on themselves.

“At the end of the day, whether you’re transgender or not, you should not be stroking your s–t in the women’s bathroom,” Huston said in a TikTok video posted late Sunday after the footage started going viral.

“Okay, that’s definitely some weirdo s–t.”

Huston says that she alerted the staff at the front desk to the situation, but they weren’t sure how to handle it. Eventually, her boyfriend confronted the man, but she says she regrets not going further and calling the police.

“I was just really uncomfortable and, honestly, I kind of just wanted to say my piece and get the f–k out of there. Looking back, I do have regrets, like I should have done more. I should have called the cops,” she explained. “I thought about it, but I was like there’s no way anything is gonna come of this. People are just gonna say I’m transphobic.”
