think i gave up mrt seat to a fat lady
-
she was standing right in front of me, dunno she's pregnant or just fat.
train was crowded, she was looking around for a seat but i wasn't sure. I'm a gentleman but her face was screaming "give me that damn seat" and that made me think twice.
a lady stood up to alight a few seats away. Her head turned quickly, ready to pounce like a spitting cobra but she was too late. I thought to myself, she really looked desparate for a seat. But what if she's not pregnant? What if she's just a greedy pile of lard with weak willpower and just ate and ate then uses deceptive means to get a seat on trains? Well I cast the doubt away and stood up. Its still a kind gesture to offer your seat to a lady. She pounced on it like it was her long lost bean bag.
A hint of regret crossed my mind, accompanied by that feeling you get when you sign on the dotted line with a 2nd hand car dealer. Ah, let it be. -
thats why i always stare at my feet when im on the train or bus, so i wont feel guilty
-
so was she pregnant??
this kind of situation when u really cannot decide..
SLEEP. -
Well you have done your part as a gentleman. That's good enough. Don't bother too much if you're not appreciated.

Next time, in addition to being a gentleman,
try to be more thick skin.
How?
Just before you surrender the seat ask this question:
Hey woman: "Are you fat or are you pregnant"
Ask her again: Just say "One" or "Two"
"One" for fat. "Two" for pregnant.
So instead of being a "Gentleman" try & see if you could be a "Jungleman"
From anyone of these 2 answers, you decice your next course of action -

Just give up your seat lar. Your backside or the seat made of gold ? One day you will grow old and if you have problem standing for long, you like people to just look at you , acting blur ? What you do to people now in the future people will do the same to you.

i always feel; i'm paying for a ride, i got the seat, too bad for you.if i want to give it up, good for you, if not, don't DEMAND it unless you are heavily pregnant, or really old(and fragile).
-
I guess this problem would never exist if the MRT wasn't so fcuking crowded everyday, right?

No offense missqi but I feel sad for people with your kind of attitude. This is a public service. Not some luxurious ride you are exclusively paying to get top class treatment.Originally posted by missqi:i always feel; i'm paying for a ride, i got the seat, too bad for you.if i want to give it up, good for you, if not, don't DEMAND it unless you are heavily pregnant, or really old(and fragile).
Ladies who are not heavily pregnant but just pregnant also need seats. We don't give them seats because they are heavily pregnant or can't stand much. We give them up so as to avoid unfortunate incidents such as the lady losing balance and falling due to the train jerking. This can be very dangerous for the baby in them. Same goes to old people. An injured young person (like urself) can recover faster when compared to an old person (fragile or not).
Peace. -
n i feel so uncomfortable expecially pack with passengers..Originally posted by sand king:thats why i always stare at my feet when im on the train or bus, so i wont feel guilty
like all looking at u like tht..

well...the "no standing" rule is not going to happen in the MRT...so the problem will still be there...but ya...MRT are really crowded nowadays.Originally posted by charlize:I guess this problem would never exist if the MRT wasn't so fcuking crowded everyday, right? -
It could be she wasn't feeling well? Or it could be she was too tired to stand since all her weight was weighing her down? Well, just think of it as a good deed rendered.Originally posted by boredtulan:she was standing right in front of me, dunno she's pregnant or just fat.

There is this once im on a bus i think 5 years ago. I was sitting facing an old woman who doesnt want to sit. Then next stop A fat lady went up...on the way.. she sat in front of me before that looking at me in disgust... then without a reason... she said "Young Man! You should give up ur seat so this old lady can sit!!"
I told her the reason that the lady doesnt want to sit..still she is like yelling.. so this is wat i told her and she got down the next bus stop feeling damn embarrassed...
"Hey ma`am..u know..if u give up yours.. 2 people can sit.. which one is better? I think u need to exercise..."
I feel bad..but i still feel good... -
