Every time you look at a tiny house, ask yourself: “can a wheelchair fit in there? Can someone with limited mobility live there? Why not? Could they go up and down the stairs to that loft bed? Could they pull down the folding bed?”
If your answer is “it shouldn’t have to, this isn’t for everybody,” then what you’re really saying is “this new world I want to build doesn’t have room for disabled people in it.”
Admit that to yourself. At least be honest about your ableism.
You’re saying that people aren’t allowed to want tiny houses. Most people who have tiny houses are abled, because they are moving around a lot. (HGTV tiny house hunters). I’m not saying that disabled people can’t move around a lot and want a smaller house, but it would need to be modified or custom-made, which there is room for.
Also, where did you get the idea we we’re replacing ALL houses with tiny houses? Not even every abled person wants a tiny house, because they like the space.
Most of these ableism posts I can accept as me not understanding because I’m both physically and mentally abled, but this I just don’t understand at all.
