How do i map the opening hours for a gym that separates between men and woman?

Where I live, most gyms have different opening hours for men and women. I looked at the opening hours wiki and didn’t really see a section for mapping the hours for different kinds of people. The closest thing i got was in the common mistakes with the opening hours for the bar but I’m still not confident this is it. This is what i currently have:

Sa-Th 06:00-02:00 "Men",Sa-Th 06:00-00:00 "Women"; Fr 14:00-02:00 "Men",Fr 14:00-00:00 "Women"

Is this correct? I feel like I’m missing something.

iD does offer a preset option of opening_hours= & also opening_hours:drive_through=, so possibly opening_hours:male= & opening_hours:female= ?

Whether anybody would actually read & process that is another question!

Isn’t that high-key the point of OSM? Because if nobody recognizes the tag/ it doesn’t appear correctly then what’s the point? Never mind the fact it would probably be a very niche tag to begin with.

Nah, different times depending on sex not at all niche. E.g. local sauna has these, I try after your suggestion:

Tu,Th,Fr 13:00-22:00; Sa,Su 11:00-22:00; We 11:00-22:00 "Ladies"

I hope I got that correct. I did not bother to add “Mixed”, its default? The app on my mobile just echoes the string as in the tag. Parsed by human, so to say. While the key with “:” likely will just get dropped.

PS: This tool warns me that PH is missing. The Sauna is open on public holidays, but no idea how to specify that, depending on the day of week the PH falls, for whom it is open may depend on sex… The tool seems to want me to put in a keyword “open” before “Ladies” too, they have a male/female sample there too…

male= and female= are standard, and supported by OSMAnd. *:conditional= / *= directly time should be preferred for expanding.
opening_hours:drive_through= is mostly bulk-added. The opening_hours:*= suffix has limited advantage. If applications don’t support arbitrary suffix, opening_hours= quoted comment is better. If they want to, *:opening_hours= following toilets= + toilets:*= etc would be more established, given drive_through= (and previously drive_through:covid19= ) exists.
Semi-relatedly, service:*:*= / service:*= has been discussed for mostly services (instead of facilities) in recent year, for service:*:rental= and service:*:parking=

Nah, we just provide the data, it’s then up to everybody too decide how they make use of it!

I guess that good to know. However it doesn’t seem to cover the fact that both sexes may have the same day available but with similar and overlapping time.

The question is, does the syntax for my opening hours make sense (the original question)? That’s the real question.
