It’s not like, you know, there might be an actual disabled person who actually needs to use the toilet. Especially not in such a quiet, unhurried space like A FUCKING AIRPORT YOU NARCISSISTIC TWIT.
What A Maroon: there’s a campaign in the UK for the installation of disabled toilets which provide for a higher level of need, with equipment like hoists and adult-sized changing tables. Because without these things, it’s sometimes been necessary for disabled people to lie on the floor to have their pads changed. For me, seeing this creepy man’s mockery of those people’s needs is utterly disgusting in a way I can’t put into words.
(Also, lying on the floor of a public toilet to stick a dildo into a fresh surgical wound would seem…unwise, from an infection control viewpoint. Ah well, not like antibiotic resistance is a thing.)
I don’t have much of a problem with this guy using a disabled toilet; sometimes there’s a need.
I very much have a problem this attitude of “oh, poor me, having to lie on the floor of this toilet stall to do this trans-specific bit of hygiene, let me tell you all about it and take a photo to show you how miserable the conditions are and how I suffer in this intimate space”. Normally people don’t take selfies in restrooms. Normally people don’t go into detail about their hygiene practices in restrooms. But no, he needs to be validated, he must document he’s in a women’s restroom, he has to remind people he has a neo-vagina and make them think about how it’s cared for, and he needs to show how he suffers so.
I’m naive or confused, or something…. How are we supposed to know from that photo that the person is “lying on the floor of a public toilet [sticking] a dildo into a fresh surgical wound”? I have missed something.

Sorry, lost myself for a moment.
Nah don’t be sorry. There’s no yelling loud enough for this utter selfish creep.

Thanks for the link, Piglet. We could probably use those in the States as well (really, everywhere).
Perhaps there should be separate facilities for men who’ve recently been castrated and de-penised.

Mike B: “Dilation, day 2”, top of the tweet.
For the morbidly curious, on a web site about MTF surgery:
Use It or Lose It: The Importance of Dilation Following Vaginoplasty
Mike B: combine the photo with the text of the 2 tweets
I’m not a twitter user so I can’t see the other two tweets. That explains it, I suppose.
And I will never become a twitter user.
Social media is always a clean, dry, private place. Your fun is complete.
How’s he meant to be dilating anyway? One hand makes the Oh Dear Me gesture, one hand holds the phone.
Laurel@11: good call!
