Giving up seats to pregnant lady

forumer84 SG

Anyone encounter giving up their seats to pregnant lady on the train and not even an acknowledgment or word of thx was said?

when i give up my seat to senior citizen, at least they will acknowledge or thank you, heck some even reject the offer nicely. But pregnant lady,and mind you these r educated, working class women,they seem to take it for granted that pple MUST give up their seats to them.

Y like dat ah?

Which brings back the same old question… How do we differentiate between a pregnant lady and a fat lady? Sometimes it just aint that obvious.

Singaporeans....

When cross path with a "elite" or someone at Orchard Road, they will make that irritating "ze" sound

When cross path with a cleaner, although I let her go first, she mouthed the word "sorry", which really surprised me a lot...

How come still got so many people awake?

rathcycle SG

cuz cannt sleep yet.

freakass SG

Cant sleep then tell me how to differentiate between pregnant and fat lady?
How to determine whether the person is old enough for us to give up our seat?
How to avoid giving up seat to the wrong people and end up embarassing yourself and them also?
How to avoid being scolded by someone for offering your seat when he/she doesnt feel that they need the seat?

Same same. I give to a mother of 3, she thank me non-stop.

I give to a mother with a unborn child. She heck care, somemore give me that guai lan look. Mad

freakass SG

Is it becos some pregnant ladies got severe mood swings?

Cool-gal SG

sometimes i wonder wads the age range tat i shd give up seat to?
40-50 consider old??
50 n above?
so far, i havent kana scolding for being a good samaritan.
if ever will, i will keep quiet cos i dun want to look like a fool arguing with a fool.

if there are "kind" looking ladies pushing prams and their arms are quite slim, just that they have a huge stomach, i suggest, give your seat to them straight away.

for old ppl....
you see those old ah pek and old auntie rite...
those use the walking stick 1 is must give seat to let them sit...
if got white hair also better give it to them
if carry loads of market stuffs also give to them

but if it is a young lady, like 20-35
wearing 5' heels, carrying bags from robinsons, OG, john little, prada, whatever high class boutiques lah..
that type.. don't need give...
cuz they can afford to buy branded stuffs.. cannot afford take cab.

freakass SG

Hard to determine whether they really need the seat or not leh... some are rather old but they look fit and healthy.... while some aunties/uncles arent THAT old but they look like their bones are going to fall apart...
