Gym response to being flashed in ladies changing room?

A male entered the female changing room and flashed at me late last Saturday night. I was alone and naked. I reported to the gym who have said that they checked the cameras three times and can’t see a male entering. It must be on there somewhere it happened, I’m raging about it and the response. I want him identified so I can report to police.

aibu to think this isn’t good enough

Was he dressed as a woman? Is that why they say no male entered?

What definition of “male” are the gym staff using?

HRTQueen · 06/11/2023 21:20

I would go to the police once they are involved the gym will take it more seriously

it wouldn’t surprise me if they hadn’t even checked their cameras many people don’t think of flashing as being a dangerous crime for many it’s just a prank it’s not and it can be terrifying and often the start of more aggressive dangerous behaviour

I think you have to report it to the police and they get the evidence.

Remember it took a whole year of lying for the NHS to admit a man did rape a woman in a ward, they denied a man was even there even to the police. Even though they had it on CCTV.

That sounds awful, I’d report it to police anyway.

MrsMoastyToasty · 06/11/2023 21:18
