Trans/disabled solidarity warms my heart

Time for a million more "a trans person peed here and nothing bad happened" stickers, I think.
I think even cis allies should be leaving them in all the public toilets they use at this point because it'll be true even if they're not the ones making it true.
I've seen some good disability solidarity regarding bathrooms: people saying "yeah get yourselves a RADAR key, I don't mind waiting to pee if this is what it takes to keep yourself safe" and things like that.
I've seen the Reasonable Access advice about asserting yourself during disability discrimination shared as also being relevant to gender discrimination.
And the Disability Rights UK statement on the Supreme Court ruling made me want to stand up and cheer...not least because they got it out almost immediately afterwards; a lot of people were feeling raw and vulnerable and it really helped to have this already out there. I've always thought that the social model applies to trans people in a similar way to how it applies to disability -- the suffering isn't essential, the barriers are put there by society -- and it's great to see those parallels highlighted.
