    In the U.S. I've been in disabled stalls where it was technically large enough to just barely fit my wheelchair in, but too small for me to turn around in, let alone get my wheelchair in the right position to transfer. I've had to learn how to transfer from in front of the toilet, even though it's much easier if you're next to it. At least for me. Edit: Two days ago I was in a stall where I could barely get in far enough that I could close the door.

    I had to take my mother to a restaurant restroom one time , after she’d dislocated her shoulder & had her arm in a huge brace/immobilizer. She used a wheelchair cause she couldn’t use her rolling walker at the time. The disabled stall in the ladies room was a joke. It was large enough, just barely , to fit her wheelchair in but wasn’t large enough for me to maneuver around and lift her out of the wheelchair and onto the toilet and back again , while also helping her pull her pants down and up. A toilet stall just being longer than a normal stall doesn’t make it a disabled stall. It also needs room if the disabled person requires a helper to use the toilet. My mom now has some mobility with the arm she dislocated, but now uses a wheelchair full time due history of stroke and falling issues. She can get herself on and off the toilet, if there’s handrails and there’s enough room to have her wheelchair perpendicular to toilet, not straight facing toilet

    @@average4098 Pregnancy is totally a disability, though. People treat disability like a dirty word so no one wants it associated with them, but the reality is that most people will go through a faze in life where they fall under the definition of being disabled. Disability is defined as a chronic condition that causes one to struggle with certain tasks of daily life, and chronic is generally defined as lasting more than three months. By that definition, many pregnant people are disabled. Pregnancy absolutely makes daily life significantly harder for many people, or at least causes them to have to make major changes in order to maintain their health and wellbeing. According to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, "Although pregnancy itself is not a disability, pregnant workers may have impairments related to their pregnancies that qualify as disabilities under the ADA." Which just sounds to me like a short-term disability. On top of that, many elderly people fall under the definition of disabled. Therefore, barring the super healthy and in shape, or die young, most people will experience disability

Able bodied people don't think about half this stuff, because we don't live it. I remember seeing a video where a couple used not only sound but also flash smoke alarm because they had a deaf person in the household. And this girl's video on the airport tapes and how they make her and her dogs life difficult, these are things I would never have stopped to think about. But then even I notice how inaccessible many cities are, it's insane

    Wish things were like that in the US! I'm a wheelchair user and a student. There's no different bathroom or smart features (personally, I'd like the pull cord in case of emergency), only a slightly bigger stall. I'm relatively sure a power chair couldn't fit into the one at my school. The doors to the bathroom itself also open inwards for some reason at my school, which is a nightmare. Combine that with a door so heavy it's hard to open, and I've gotten stuck in there a few times. The United States is weird.

If there isn't anyone in there though, uh, basically you just have to wait. Sometimes there are the single room toilets, never seen a pull cord in one of those though. If you fall there, that's bad because nobody will see. I will say it again. The US is weird.

    I have an “invisible disability” (well, invisible until I pass out or dislocate things 🤣) anyways, I use disabled bathrooms for the handrails and extra space. I often have to lie down or have handrails to catch and guide myself due to my fainting disorder as well as my limited mobility. I can’t wait to get my service dog to help with these things, but most of all to help with visibility. Having one means people finally know, or can at least acknowledge, that I am in fact disabled and entitled to use these restrooms as much as anyone else on the disability spectrum. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been yelled at because I don’t “look disabled”, or had to wait for the disability stall because someone took it despite all the regular ones being open. Please, if you aren’t handicapped, be considerate!! 💗

    I’m just going to add that not all disabilities are visible! I don’t think you mean any harm and I take no offense (it’s the internet so I just want to be clear here haha). I have an invisible disability which is Dysautonomia and more specifically postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. This means that when I go from sitting to standing I lose my vision and hearing, and have passed out a few times. It comes with disorientation as well as balance problems given the symptoms. When I use a bathroom, it can do this, and the only way to overcome it is to brace until it goes away. The railings do come in handy for this as I am able to brace securely and know I’m grounded. I use regular stalls when necessary, but it comes with a risk that I may pass out and not be able to brace. Sometimes I can use the walls to push against it lean on, but they can be dirty and I can’t always see to know during an episode and it doesn’t always do enough to ground me if I lose my balance. Anyway, thanks for reading this, and I just wanted to share and remind anyone who reads that not all disabilities are visible, and despite how someone looks you never know what they’re going through.

I have been doing public access training with my SDiT for the past several months and I notice that when I use the bathroom I have a harder time fitting into a regular stall. I will be honest I get a little annoyed when I go into the bathroom and someone who's walked in just before me and saw my dog goes into the handicap stall when there's a regular one available. It's not that I can't go into the regular stall but its awkward and there's often pee on the floor right where my dog needs to sit so if I can I go for the bigger stall cause its less cramped. Thank you for sharing your experiences, I love finding your videos and relating to them on a similar level!

    The handle and chord would be so useful for my grandma. She is physically handicapped and has difficulty getting on and off the toilet without help or handles, and she is a falling hazard. The size is also incredible, because it would easily accommodate her walker or wheelchair.

    I didn't even think about how small normal flush buttons are! As a seeing person I take so many things for granted! Which is 1 of the many reasons I love your content. I wouldn't know how I could make the world more accessible to others without their point of view. I feel it's incredibly important to learn and listen to people who live differently than me. Whether it's ability, cultural, religious or any other kind of difference. Because we all deserve equal treatment.

    Disabled toilets in the USA don't have a help pull string, except in hospitals. Best we've gotten lately is a sensor for an automatic flush, but not all have that. We do have at least a hand rail on the wall side of the toilet. Our disabiled toilet doors do open outwards. They are larger for a wheelchair. But that bathroom you're in is the largest I've ever seen. They remodeled the bathrooms at work, now there's a second assisted toilet. It's a regular size, but has 4 handrails, two horizontal, one on each side, and two vertical, one on each side. For me that helps more than the wheelchair size stall. Really bad back, and difficulty going from sitting to standing without help. Now I can pull up with both arms. But there's only one toilet like that in the whole store, none in the bathroom up front. I wish there were more handrail toilet stalls everywhere. And all toilets had automatic flush and automatic faucets. Less touching things. Thank you for the video, greatly appreciated. Take care, stay safe, have a nice day. 👵🙂✌️🖖 😷 🙉🙈🙊 🌎☮️🕊️

    When my mum was in a wheelchair after surgery we had to help her use the toilet. We needed to be able to fit her, a wheelchair, a walker, and another person to help her every time she used a toilet. I remember helping her when we were out shopping one day and there were none of these helpful features and the bathroom was barely big enough. It was ridiculously small when you think about what some people need to make fit into disabled toilet stalls But in the US they can't even get the gaps out of stall doors 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Americans just don't care about disabled people. A while back when my mom was in a wheelchair, she wanted to try on clothes at a store but only one of the dressing rooms in the women's section were open. Despite having signs saying to only bring in a certain number of clothes, nobody policed it. Somebody went into the disabled dressing room with a ridiculous number of clothes (the disabled dressing room had a very long rack over it so you can see what's hanging on it and it was filled). My mom knocked on the stall and explained she was in a wheelchair and needed the room and we waited. They never left the stall. We had to ask an employee who did open one of the other changing rooms for my mom. I don't think they left the disabled stall until after we finished shopping. Luckily they were able to open another dressing room for us, no clue why they weren't already open, maybe they just didn't think it was very busy and didn't want to clean it at the end of the day? Ever since then I've been mindful to avoid going to the disabled rooms if possible.
