Woman kicked out of gym over ‘tasteless’ Instagram pics and being ‘too hot’

In an Instagram post, Shirls discussed the incident further. She wrote: “The reason my membership was terminated was because I post ‘tasteless,’ immodest content.
“I am free-spirited, I am friendly, I have a great sense of myself as significant and important REGARDLESS of what I choose to wear (or not wear).
She said she also respects people “regardless of how they dress, behave, [or] adhere to social standards.”
Many people supported the fitness models outrage, calling out the gym for their ‘toxic’ behaviour.
