This isn't 1912 and it is not the sinking of the Titanic. I believe that it is absolutely ridiculous to give up a seat on public transit based on the ideals that women are more deserving of a seat. There are plenty of times when I have given up a seat or offered to at the very least, but XX sex chromosomes are not one of the reasons.

Are you say that because you wouldn't then that means that it doesn't happen and that my experience and own circumstance is fiction.
I have given up that seat, and I have seen it happen regularly and multiply times and I'm not talking over time... I'm talking on any crowded route from point A to B
