  Well,

  Each time I travel, I always look around if there are any other needy people who deserves the seat more than me. If none, I shall sit down. Haha.

  But when I sit down, I also look out for anyone who deserves the seat more than me.. Like pregnant woman, the elderly.. blablabla..  I'd always give up my seat to them..

  Once, I had a 'small argument' with an old lady. I just stood up and said, "Auntie, here, you can sit at my place." But she insisted I sat down instead.. Lol.. In the end I managed to convinced her and she sat down finally..

  there's too many old people, too little seats.
  
  SMRT removing seats, singapore going towards ageing population.
  
  have you seen two elderly people rushing for a seat? suddenly they're so energetic and stealthy.

  I think every seat should be given up, not just the Priority/Reserved seat. And, no, the ones who give up their seats are not the kind ones, it's those who chooses not to sit at all.

  That is precisely the reason that I only stand in mrt ride no matter how tired i am or how long the journey actually takes...

   

  UNless the whole train is like a lot of seats then i would take a seat.

  ...actually, the kind AND smart ones are the ones who grab a seat asap so that the seat hoggers don't have a chance to and they could give up their seats later to those who need it more.

  That makes sense... But for now, wait till manage to get on the train first.

  could govt also teach sluts to give u seats to elderly rather than to stare at men as if its solely our responsibilities to be kind and please every one and sluts included?
