gIvE it Up or I sHaLL sNaP YoUR pIC
A common sight in the MRT trains of Singapore.
Lately on the Stomp portal, there's a lil debate on the giving up seat to people in need (from pregger ladies to the elderly folk).
The debate unfolds from this pregger lady who got pissed by this other non-pregger lady (probably in her 20s to 30s) who did not give up her seat when she saw the former standing in front of her.
Pregger lady then proceeded to wipe out her hp and snap a pic of the non-pregger lady. Non-pregger lady then got reali pissed for having her pic taken without her permission and scolded cum cursed this pregger lady including the unborn in her.
Pregger lady uploaded the pic on stomp and hence the lil debate came in. Some readers argued how some 'people in need of seats' are downright unreasonable. Some questioned how the snapping of the pic to upload on the internet is uncalled for. Some jeered at the inconsiderate non-pregger lady claiming she deserves it.
IMO (in my opinion):
Everything stems from oneself's own initiative. If some fellow passenger refused to budge to give up their seat on the mrt to a person in need I do not see the need to snap that offender's pic to upload on a public portal. Yes, u may b pissed but I do think it's pretty rude.
And yes, I agree that the non-pregger lady was inconsiderate not to give up her seat to the pregger lady. Yes she gone too far to cursed at the unborn child too (note: she cursed after her pic was taken). But it does not warrent the pregger one to snap her pic.
What goes round comes around. Both IMO are at fault.
sidetrack: what if u are seated and there this lady who looks preggers yet may also not be preggers (mayb a lil tubby), would u give up your seat and risk getting slammed for thinking she is preggers when in fact she is juz a lil tubby?
