In their insane drive to make all restrooms “gender neutral,” liberal city planners have decided that handicapped folks simply aren’t worth the effort.

At West Virginia University, they held a big celebration after the opening of two new “state of the art” same-sex bathrooms. They claimed their new restrooms prove that WVU “remains a national leader in progression and inclusion.” Except for handicapped people that is.
They told the local TV station that their “all-gender” restroom was just awesome.
“When you look at it from a structural standpoint, we haven’t always – as a society – made a place for everyone, said David Fryson, the schools head of “diversity, equality and inclusion.” “And this is part of that expansion of individual liberties and individual rights.”
Well, no. Not so much. Campus Reform reports:

Some students at WVU, however, think the new gender neutral bathrooms are a snub to handicapped students whose demands for handicap-accessible bathrooms have been placed on the diversity backburner. Amanda Hutchison, one of two students in a manual wheelchair on campus, told Campus Reform she has been advocating for Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) rights since she started at WVU, but the administration has mostly ignored her requests.
“The university’s response is very slow compared to the gender neutral bathroom advocates, she said. “They rallied and got enough people to where the university did not really have a choice.”
Hutchison did note that the university established an ADA committee in 2013 after she initially brought her concerns to the attention of administration. Since then, the university hired an ADA director as well but his position was placed under the supervision of the school’s diversity office, which focuses most of its energy on issues of race and gender.

The school doesn’t really give a sh*t about handicapped students – because they don’t yell and scream as loud as LGBT activists.

Which means WVU’s claim of “inclusivity” and “individual rights” rings hollow to students in wheelchairs who just want to find a place to pee.
Hutchison concluded by saying that she thinks many of her efforts have been overshadowed by LGBT activists and accessibility issues are mostly ignored in the diversity office asking, “If accessibility is part of diversity and inclusion, why aren’t they fighting for those students?”
Because it’s all a show, Amanda. I’m sorry.
