Bathroom Discourse - Tumblr Posts
This is your daily reminder that accessible bathrooms are not just for disabled people, and that disability has no limits and is not often visually obvious.
Accessible bathrooms are also often equipped for parents and for people who need temporary assistance. Single fathers, people who've had surgery, people who are sick and need the support rails and additional space, ect.
Accessible bathrooms are for everyone, and I'm sick of seeing fellow disabled people shaming others when we as a community know better than anyone that disability is not always obvious, and accessibility should be the standard, not the exception.
The real issue is the fact that there's only ever, at most, one accessible bathroom. What we should be campaigning for is the normalisation of having at least two accessible bathrooms, so the people who need it aren't restricted to waiting or subjecting themselves to a non-accessible bathroom.
