If you are an able bodied and you don't give your seat up to a woman, you are a pansy.

I think this is missing the point. If this woman had said "I can't stand for long periods, would you mind giving me your seat please?" then I'm sure the OP would have no problem. But if the initial request is done in beeyotch form then it tends to get peoples backs up.
As the old Chinese proverb goes...."Honey catches more flies than vinegar"
EDIT: Oops, just saw the OP clarified on this point on page 3
