If you don't have balls you're not allowed in this discussion ladies.

As a former subway rider I have this to say: Quit putting your bags on empty seats! Your damn bag isn't tired and needs to sit down, I do.

Being an asshole on the subway is gendered now? That's all kinds of special.

Subway leg spreaders are worse than Hitler.

I am about 75% serious about that.

I haven't looked at the male one, but the female one is petty. Taking up two seats is fine if there isn't one at need. Women often offer a seat and often prefer to stand. And expecting someone to put food on the ground is odd.

The ones who are bad are teenagers. Especially tough guys - young males. Sometimes you can shame them into offering a seat to an elder, but that can also get your teeth knocked out. I know someone who got their jaw broke for brushing against a dudes leg in the aisle. The driver didn't do anything about it either.

I find it very frustrating here in NYC. I've had elderly people offer my children seats on the subway while young ones, male and female, keep focused entirely on their smart phones without looking up. I decline the seats, but it really would help my young children -- the train can decelerate pretty quickly and they are better off sitting down, plus on a crowded train, they can get pretty smashed between standing adults.

I gave up my seat on a very crowded train once to an elderly woman with a cane and she was so grateful I had to conclude it did not happen very often. Same experience giving up a seat to a man with crutches.

My understanding is that the female one was made in response to the male one.

It doesn't happen enough, but a lot of people saw you do it. We're monkey see, monkey do! Thanks for pointing that out to me about kids, its true.

I can't tell if Tumblr users are serious or just Poe's Law.

Why can't I see the comments?

That's been my experiences too. I gave my seat to an obviously older guy, and he was gushing with thank yous; and then mentioned to me "Well my legs tire out, I am 84." I told him, no sweat.

I know a handful of people who think like it in the real world, sadly.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

That's cool.

I was wondering what you were going to say on the trigger warning video post.

"They are taught to take up a lot of space..."

Oh?

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Well teenage boys did this in my school anyway, especially around each other. Fights would break out if you tried to climb up the steps over someone's leg too close and such. Very dumb petty stuff. Like wolves nipping at den territory.

[fizzyland.livejournal.com]

I laughed too.
