Woman Goes Topless At Public Pool, Claiming She’s Male. Aquatic Center Does Nothing: Report

In mid-June, in Pella, Iowa, the home of a charming Dutch, Christian Reformed community, a middle-aged woman who claims she is a male was permitted to saunter around the Pella Aquatic Center topless and use the men’s locker room, and the Aquatic Center reportedly did nothing to prevent it.

The Iowa Standard reported that the assistant manager stated anyone can wear clothing they associated with their gender identity rather than biological sex. “The policy is set by the city council, according to the aquatic center’s assistant manager,” The Iowa Standard asserted.
