The Island Personal Training website went offline after local media reported on the bizarre, anti-Asian language used to describe services.
A gym chain in Northern California has sparked backlash after its website reportedly featured a rant about “shady” and “dirty” Asian massage parlors. The Island Personal Training website went offline after ABC 7 reported on the bizarre, anti-Asian language used to describe services.
In pitching its own massage services, the gym noted that its massage therapists “speak English ” and promised that its services were better than “all these shady asian ‘massage parlors.’” “Do they even change their sheets ?” the gym reportedly wrote. In a separate Facebook post, the gym said that it was “not a dark shady, and/or dirty place that smells like Chinese food,” according to ABC 7.
