The hashtag #notinmylockerroom has been the new wave of tags on twitter. After Republic nominee, Donald Trump dismissed his sexually offensive video as “locker room talk”, many professional athletes and coaches have refuted his dismissal of lewd comments about making sexual advances on women.
In case you haven’t seen the video:
Following the release of the sexual comments between Trump and Billy Bush of "Access Hollywood", Trump said he was embarrassed by the video and apologized for his comments.

Although he released this statment, his excuse didn’t appeal to many skeptics.
"As an athlete, I've been in locker rooms my entire adult life and uh, that's not locker room talk," Sean Doolittle, baseball pitcher of the Oakland Athletics said.
NBA veteran and Miami Heat captain Udonis Haslem is also part of the growing list of athletes who have spoken out against Donald’s comments.
