This picture got me thinking.
About ten years ago, this wouldn't have worried me particularly. My attitude would have been live and let live. I probably wouldn't have even thought about which toilets they used.
My attitude has since changed, thanks to organisations like Stonewall.
Their campaign to normalise this, to insert it in the school curriculum, to tell me that I must respect it, to centre it in everything, to celebrate it, to think about how I live my life in regard to it, to change my language, to make me question my thinking, to threaten me with sanctions such as loss of banking, employment etc for asking questions about it, to demand I include them in everything; all this work they have done has made me change my attitude.
Well done Stonewall. Your campaign made a difference.
