"Why should I reward the pregnant woman for bringing one more life into the world?"
That was what this ugly commuter said when asked to give up his seat to a pregnant woman.

so disturbing and nausiating.
Today, I was in the NEL train at 7pm fully crowded. A couple behind me were fondingly mildly, urk.... they just couldn't wait till they were off the train.. it's like they knew they were gonna end their relationship once they get off the train so they need to fulfill every need of their's in the train!...
then there was a 3 generation indian family, grandmama, son and grandson abt 3-4years old. nobody offered them any seats! then only then when there was a seat... some woman went to snatch when the little boy was walking up to it, only to return back to the dad feeling sad. I as an onlooker, felt so pissed, and yet confused if I should tell the woman to get the hell up. It was like watching a scene in titanic where a family was so helpless during the sinking...
urgh...so disgraceful... I feel even more disgusted when I myself did not help. Well it is their right to not give up the sit... hmm. okie maybe I should try doing asking ppl to give up their seat when I'm with a friend, like that maybe I'll feel more comfortable knowing my friend will back me up if I kena scolded... Sooooooo whosever taking train with me... be prepared for a battle!!
