People basically have to walk on egg shells over every little thing these days because there's no telling what will offend somebody, even with the best of intentions.
Re: the bolded part - isn't it sexist? Why would you give up your seat just because someone is a woman? Are women too weak to stand up on the bus?

Would you give up your seat to a man just because he's a man?
