I'm not sure if this matters to you ladies, but I've heard some interesting things about Curves and it's owner (I think he's the owner) donating sizeable amounts to organizations that are pro-life. I'm not sure of the details, but this website:
http://www.curversforchoice.org/
has some information. I know that my mother quit going to Curves and found another program that works for her because she is very pro-choice and this bothered her. Just FYI!
