Plus size TikToker Jaelynn Chaney calls for pool accessibility: 'Demand mandatory handrails now'

Jaelynn Chaney is a plus-size traveller and influencer who uses her social media to highlight the problems overweight individuals face while travelling. In her latest TikTok video, she addressed another issue: "It’s time for everyone to swim without worry," she demands.

She gained significant attention last year when she called for free, additional plane seats for overweight people. She noted that she and her fiancé felt discriminated against during one of her flights due to the tiny seats and short seat belts. The influencer admitted that other passengers also made unkind remarks.

"These passengers should be provided with an extra free seat, or even multiple seats, to accommodate their needs and ensure their comfort and safety, as well as those around them, during the flight," Jaelynn Chaney appealed at the time.

Now, the woman has highlighted another important issue. She published a new video on TikTok, where as many as 137,500 users follow her. It has already been viewed almost 50,000 times.

The woman pointed out the amenities that should be present in every pool to allow everyone to enter and exit comfortably. Specifically, she refers to handrails. "No handrails at pools? That’s not inclusive. Demand accessibility for all!" she wrote in the video description.

"Without handrails, we're excluding so many from enjoying the pool safely. It’s time to ensure everyone can swim with confidence," the plus-size influencer appealed. In the video, she showed how the handrails and stairs make it easier for her to enter and exit the pool.

Interestingly, the American disabled the ability to comment on the video. Perhaps she decided due to the unfavourable opinions under previous video materials.
