My experience a few hours ago

[Aspergers_Aspie]

A few hours ago I needed the toilet, I went to a pub, a Greene king, a big UK chain, but the doorman refused me entry I showed him my disabled bus pass and said I'm autistic, and the bar staff assistant and manager said I could, eventually the doorman said yes, I even said I could ask my GP practice for a diagnosis letter and bring it next time, the manager and assistant apologised and were nice but I understand a doorman wouldn't want a lot of people maybe using the toilet only, but aspies can getvreally stressed

90% of doormen are petty megalomaniacs who failed the psych test when they applied to join the police force, because they're just bullies. Usually not very intelligent either so he'll probably respond exactly the same if you run in to him again too.

There are doormen keeping people out of a bar? How do they know what you are going in for?

If you have a condition where you may need washroom access on short notice, perhaps you may wish to consider obtaining a radar key.

A couple of my autistic friends who I know off at least have these keys
