I've given up a seat on the bus and held doors and helped little old ladies across the street more times than I can count.. because at the time, it seemed like the right thing to do... it's amazing to me the number of people that dont.. or will be sitting in the seats specifically reserved for the handicapped and senior citizens and NOT give up the seat...
What aggravates me more than anything is the sense of entitlement that some people (namely women) have about having men do things for them... I've been on more than one flight where this woman (usually blonde with cleavage) who feighs a struggle with her suitcase and getting it into the overhead, she always gets some gullible male to put it in the overhead... She was perfectly capable of doig it herself, and if she couldn't she should have checked the damn thing... It's the expectation that someone else would do it for her...
