Again, not every single woman with a stroller in a public restroom is using the accessible stall. And given the vast scope of people with disabilities which you cannot see, and compared that to all the women with strollers in the park, there is a very strong likelihood that they do need the accessible rest room. That's not being disingenuous. You are. You keep spouting this thing about every single woman with a stroller in a public restroom, and that's simply not the case.don't be disingenuous.
The likelihood that every single woman with a stroller in a public restroom using the handicapped stall has an invisible disability are so astronomical, the Wizard of Odds would find it difficult, if not impossible, to calculate those odds.
There was no derision meant. It was sarcasm to make a point. But it's telling that you interpreted it that way since your dislike of women with strollers is actually fairly strong. You're assuming that every person who uses that stall is doing so for inappropriate reasons.While the stall is usually large enough for a stroller, the international wheelchair symbol means that these stalls will accommodate a person using a mobility assistance device such as a wheelchair (and apparently it's necessary to remind that not everyone in a wheelchair is in it 24/7 either; your derision toward ECV users wasn't missed) or ECV or rollator. Yes, they're large enough for strollers - but there's no stroller symbol. The considerate action would be to leave the accessible stall available whenever possible - but we know there's not a lot of courtesy in 2012.
And again, who are you to say that the people using the stall don't have a very good and clear need to use it? Why are their needs any greater than someone else?Sure. But who want to be responsible for TalkingHands' broken bone or embarrassment because someone was toilet-training in the accessible stall? Not mentioned in this thread, but it's been done at WDW...while someone in a wheelchair waited in vain.
You have NO IDEA why someone needs that stall. NONE. Unless you have some magic bowel mirror that lets you seen into the internal workings of everyone who walks into the bathroom, that is.
