WA Korean spa petitions Supreme Court over transgender ruling

A women-only Korean spa in Lynnwood, WA, is petitioning the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse a Ninth Circuit court ruling that requires the facility to accommodate transgender individuals. The legal battle stems from a complaint filed by a transgender woman who had not undergone gender-affirming surgery and was denied admission to the facility. According to attorneys who are defending the spa, the state of Washington said the spa must allow males who identify as women into its nude, female-only facility.
