Is there something you would like to do at Spalady that you cannot do at another similar but unisex place? No. It's petulant "but they get it, I want it."

By all means, if you want to deal with all the crappy parts of being a woman: catcalls on the street, harassment at work, getting turned down for promotions because of gender, making less money because you don't have xy chromosomes, etc, I'll happily hand over all of that and let you also work out at Spalady.
Yeah, and the service she wanted wasn't available at this one either. What's the big deal?

There are positives and negatives to both genders. I'm sick of this half-assed attempt at making feminism relevant. Attack an actual issue if you're going to carry the feminist flag, don't make a stink about not being able to have your hair cut the way you want it at a specific barber.

Hell, I'm outraged that the other hair styling places wouldn't provide her the service she wanted. Just because they don't have the skillset to cut that particular style of hair doesn't mean they shouldn't just cut her hair anyways! It's not like they have an option on who they get to provide service to or anything.
