Les Mills 'people with ovaries' and the Less Mills FB group

I've just left the official Les Mills group on FB as I don't think my blood pressure can cope. LM sent some of their female members an email about approaching menopause and what they need to know. All very sensible and useful and I wish they'd done it years back when I was approaching that stage.

The email was addressed to 'people with ovaries'. Gratifyingly quite a few people have posted saying they find that expression reductive and they are women.

Quite a few people with testicles have told them how they don't know anything, are TERFs, etc.

I'm hearted that a number of younger women are saying they don't like the expression but won't be rejoining for a few months as I'm so fed up.

It's such a shame as LM itself is such a great resource and the FB group has some very useful posts and recommendations on workouts and help with technique, etc.

It's also a bit mad, as they've started doing so many great initiatives for the older exerciser such as Low Impact and Thrive.

I haven’t rejoined as a result of their nonsense either.

And remember ladies, when you avoid a supplier, or cancel a sub, do let them know exactly why.
