North Kansas City police are investigating a report of indecent exposure 
after a mom and her young daughter witnessed a man who claimed to be a 
woman allegedly expose himself in a YMCA women’s locker room.

The mother, who spoke with local news this week, and her seven-year-old 
daughter entered the locker room after a children’s swim lesson. As she 
and her daughter left a bathroom stall, they saw a naked man. When the 
mother questioned why the man was in the women’s locker room, he said 
something like, “‘Honey, I’m a woman,'” she reported.

She and her daughter left the locker room and reported the incident.

In a statement, the YMCA of Greater Kansas City said it was “aware of a 
reported incident in the locker room at the North Kansas City YMCA on 
April 12, 2025.”

“We continue to investigate the incident and are unable to provide further 
details at this time,” the statement read. “We also are cooperating with 
the North Kansas City Police Department as they conduct their 
investigation. The safety and well-being of all of our members is a 
priority, and we take this concern seriously.”

“We follow all state and local laws, and individuals are allowed to use 
the locker room or restroom that they identify with,” the statement 
continued. “At the North Kansas City YMCA, we also have four private 
universal changing rooms available, separate from the larger shared locker 
rooms, for anyone who prefers the privacy they offer.”

The mother spoke to Fox4 on the condition of anonymity and emphasized that 
her gripe was not with the hot-button issue of gender identity.

“This is not a case of transitional status,” she said. “This is an issue 
of somebody showing their body parts to my child in a room where she 
should be safe from such things.”

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey launched an investigation in 
August of last year into a fitness chain for a similar problem. Life Time 
Fitness reportedly allowed Eris Montano, a transgender-identifying male 
who exposed himself in the women’s locker room, to access the female space 
despite numerous complaints from female clients.

Montano’s membership was revoked after “Life Time was presented with 
multiple, publicly available statements which could affect the safety and 
security at one of our clubs,” a spokeswoman said at the time.

“As Attorney General, I will vigorously defend and enforce Missouri’s 
laws. You face both potential criminal and civil liabilities, and you can 
expect to receive civil investigative demands from my office in short 
order,” Bailey said in a notice of investigation addressed to Life Time’s 
CEO. “If you insist on endangering women and young girls in our state, in 
open defiance of the law, be assured you will face the consequences.”
