I mean, Le Guin wrote male characters, and they were generally acutely well observed because women learn to observe men acutely as a matter of survival (and also because she's just that cool.) Likewise, Black authors writing white characters often make them way more interesting because learning to understand white people and predict their behaviour is important when you grow up Black.

With that in mind, if you as a trans person with disabilities write an able bodied cis character, they will probably be better observed than if I, an able bodied cis person, wrote them. And I would like to read that.

Also, ancient shattered abandoned cities seen through the eyes of someone who knows how to read them for accessibility? That's something I want to stuff into my brain.
