In yet another attack on biological women’s rights, a group of transgender activists is outraged over a San Francisco bathhouse’s decision to set aside just one night a month exclusively for women born female. Their response? Threatening to crash the event and protest outside the spa unless the owners cave to their demands.
Archimedes Banya, a Russian-style bathhouse that typically welcomes all guests, introduced a Cultural & Religious Women’s Night to accommodate women who, for religious or cultural reasons, require a female-only space. The policy is hardly exclusionary—the spa already offers an Inclusive Women’s Night where biological men who identify as women are welcome. Every other night remains open to all.
But that wasn’t enough.
Despite the spa’s clear efforts to provide options for everyone, transgender activists are furious that a single evening a month is reserved for biological women. One activist, Dakota Rose Austin, told CBS News, “Offer them to us every day. We’re not any different individuals.”
Another activist, identified only as Jordan, outrageously compared the situation to racial segregation, saying, “That response is really discriminatory when you think about it because if you had a night where you excluded, say, a certain race, that would not fly, and we’re just saying trans-exclusive nights won’t fly.”
Of course, the comparison is absurd. This is not about race—it’s about biology, safety, and respecting the rights of women who need private spaces.
This relentless push to erase biological sex from public spaces is nothing new. Whether it’s forcing women to compete against men in sports, allowing biological males into female prisons, or now demanding unrestricted access to nude spas, the radical left continues to prioritize the feelings of a few over the rights of many.
Women who hold religious beliefs requiring same-sex spaces are being told their needs don’t matter. Women who simply prefer a female-only space are being bullied into silence. And any business that dares accommodate them is targeted for harassment.
Archimedes Banya released a statement affirming its commitment to inclusivity while also recognizing the needs of all customers:
“At Archimedes Banya, we are deeply committed to fostering a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive space for all members of our community. To honor both our commitment to inclusivity and the needs of religious and cultural communities who require gender-segregated spaces, we are introducing two distinct women’s nights.”
But that wasn’t enough for the activists, who have vowed to picket the spa unless they get complete access—every single night.
Once again, the radical trans movement is proving it’s not about “coexistence” or “inclusion.” It’s about control. These activists don’t want compromise; they want submission. And anyone who dares to push back—whether it’s a female athlete, a women’s rights advocate, or a small business—is immediately labeled “transphobic” and threatened with protests.
At what point will society stand up and say: enough?
