Well, it's a gracious act to give up your seat for others who needs them more than us...
Me don't feel pai seh or awkward in doing so, maybe our culture and social graciousness havn't reach the level of letting it flow at ease... -
if i sit outside or if the elderly stand beside me i will give
-
I will if the elderly is standing near me...
-
to the needy... why not!??
Those who die die dun wan stand up shld feel paiseh instead leh!

Choy!!! Do so much good deed then in the end old liao muz use public transport ahh!!!! The reward for gd deed is to drive ard in ur car!! -
I do.
but there were times hor, when these parents so kiasu.
it's like i wana stand up and give the seat liao then the mother will quickly put her butt on the seat, machiam i dun wana let her sit like that.
there was once i boarded a bus, a free shuttle bus to IMM in fact. I was already getting in the slot, wana sit down liao, then one kiasu mother came from the other side, squeeze in leh. I was so mad, i told her 'u wana sit, juz say so la!" squeeze wat squeeze.. wahlew. -
but it would be odd if she really said "i want to sit."Originally posted by browniebaobao:I do.

Hey playboy,
U just feel uncomfortable attracting attention from the public or afraid the person wont accept the seat you offer, i suppose. Don't worry, I believe some of us initially are like that. Just step out from your fear inside, offer your seat for the first time to the one who need the seat more than; subsequently, you wont have any problem for second or third .... etc -
if a large guy stand beside and stare at me.
I WILL -
The only time i don't give up my seat is when my Back hurts or when i'm sleeping.
-
I long time never seat already, always stand somewhere lonely. I am damn suay person, wherever I sit, the next few stops will come in all the ah ma, pregnant woman, lady with kids, dozens of them will stand in front of me and stare at me, damn, that's scarry.

relax lar, this behaviour slowly will be phase out among us. only some older generation folks behave like this.Originally posted by browniebaobao:
