why has the matter turned so ugly?
Is it mandatory for passenger to give up seats to the needy? I think the answer is NO. Therefore it is only a moral obligation for passenger to give up the seat. If you can live to act like to are sleeping so as to avoid giving up the seat, so be it. To stomp on the passenger is neither a courteous nor a moral thing to do too.

i'm v harsh meh. this was what i said:
xtan, you can be having a bad day, feeling cramps, bloated, hormonal, and feeling like you entered a miss universe contest, competing against the likes of other round planets like mars, venus, saturn and uranus (mass category)
but you can't use the "oh, you all don't understand how i feel, boo-hoo, next time you pregnant then you will know my frustration" as a lame excuse to absolve yourself for what you did.
and i'm certainly not impressed with you trying to be nonchalant playing victim, going "oh, i can't help it if you don't empathies with me, i'm just going to just go on my merry little way, sniff sniff". you shouldn't even be justifying yourself, nothing can justify what you did. you SHOULD feel apologetic that you were childish in mentality, poisonous in thought, and vile in action.
you can't just board the mrt carriage, expecting everyone to take notice and lay themselves down as a carpet to trot your swollen feet on. yes you're pregnant, yes, i'm sure the baby is going to be cute. yes, you deserve a seat due to your condition, but did you have to be rude about it? the lady was asleep, you could have gently ask for a seat (most people do actually comply willingly if you ask nicely, didn't your parents teach you this?). but no! you thought you would rather not open your golden mouth and teach her a lesson by taking her photo and posting it in stomp, trying to gather as much sympathetic pats on the back along the way. Sorry, kinda backfired, because to me, you seem to be getting more kicks in the butt than pats on the back.
and it's also an undisputed fact that the lady did offer you her seat the moment she was conscious that you were there. i know you're not exactly a packet of peanuts but hey, some people just aren't observant. but, she did still offer her seat.
did you say thank you? apparently not! Wow, and here i was, wondering why the younger generations are getting ruder, more uncouth, more un-adorable, and more elitist and arrogant. apparently we have our answer, it's parents like you, whom the kids learnt to follow. hey, monkey see, monkey do right? so is this how you're going to teach your kids? "Darling, if you see someone who doesn't appeal to you, it is ok to take their picture come home and stomp, just make sure you run really fast ok? because if you get caught.. well, try not to get caught, sweetie."
it is, in reality, a lose-lose situation for you. you can't exactly tell me "no! of course that's not the way i'm going to raise him up, i'm going to teach him good manners myself!" yeah right. Good manners like saying "thank you"? sorry, if you can tell me that, you're just going to be one big flabby hypocrite. You can fix the big flabby part with the christy chung formula, but you'll still be a tight sexy hypocrite, good looking on the outside, ugly in the inside.
i'm sure everyone will appreciate the aesthetic relief, but don't expect getting any "mum of the year" or "best mum ever" award anytime soon, ya?
and i read in a post that you were actually offered seats by other generous and gracious commuters, and you refused them. seriously, what's up with that?? -
They tot pregnant .. The whole world has become their hubbies must obey them. Dream on dream on.

I think for anything to work in Singapore, you need to put a monetary stipulation upon any infraction. Singaporeans, generally, are conditioned to only commit to common courtesy when it hurts their pockets.
Say, has SMRT and SBS considered reserving a carriage just for handicap and pregnant commuters? Or it just does not make financial sense?

Wait until after she give birth then continue arguing with her.....

Says the STOMPer in an email to STOMP yesterday (Jan 29):
"Today, I (I boarded the train from City Hall) met this inconsiderate and rude woman who did not offer me (who is 26 weeks pregnant) the Priority Seat she was sitting on.
"She did not offer me the seat even after finishing her sms and after one stop.
"However, she realised that I was taking a picture of her and asked me very rudely and with a hostile expression on her face if I wanted the seat.
"I answered yes and she stood up and started hurling vulgarities at me and calling me a 'b***h'.
"I scolded her back as I thought she should be embarassed of herself!
"She walked away after about 20 seconds of cursing.
"Before she alighted at Novena station, she stopped by my seat and started cursing me and my unborn baby!
"I'm speechless as I'm wondering if she is even ashamed of herself!
"I cannot tolerate actions like this and from someone who is obviously educated."
In a telephone conversation with STOMP, the STOMPer stood by her story.
She said that she was wearing maternity clothing and was visibly pregnant when she boarded the train and was disappointed that the woman had behaved in such a manner.And she also posted in a pregnancy forum:

Priority Seat - Rude and Inconsiderate woman. Please help to pass the message.
Dear all,
I hope we can stand together in this.
I'm not sure how many of you are in the same position as I am.
I try my best to get a seat in trains ever since I found that I'm pregnant. I'm not afraid of myself falling, but, I'm afraid of people falling on me when the train brakes suddenly.
My latest trip to Japan made me realise how fortunate pregnant Japanese women are. Train operators give out a tag for them to tag to their bags so that other passengers know that they are expecting even though the tummy is not showing yet. I brought one back, but, that hardly work here.
Over the last two weeks, I'm really frustrated as I'm already into Week 26 and my tummy is already very obvious for my small build. I decided to start a photo album of inconsiderate people who did not offer their priority seats.
Today, I met one and took a picture of her. She did not offer me the seat even after finishing her sms and after one stop. However, she realised that I was taking a picture of her and ask me very rudely if I want the seat. I answered yes and she stood up and started hurling vulgarities at me and calling me a bitch. I scolded her back as I think she should be embarassed of herself! She walked away after about 20secs of cursing.
However, before she alighted at Novena station, she stopped by my seat and started cursing at me and my unborn baby! I'm speechless as I'm wondering if she is even ashamed of herself!
My husband just told me that I do have the rights to sue her for abusing me with language.
I'm posting her picture here and I intend to put this message up in Stomp and also to send this to SMRT.
If there are any lawyers reading this message, please kindly advise.
I seriously cannot tolerate actions like this and from someone who is obviously educated.Attached Thumbnails
Who's at fault?Is that the only PRIORITY SEAT around? She cannot open her cunt mouth and ask politely? I wont curse her and her unborn but I dont blame her victim for doing so.
This STOMP crapz is to much, I never visit their stupid site.
To be fair, they should publish the pic of the preg cunt mouth.

Wrong, they should know their limits.

wtf?!!

My dua sen:
Photographs don't always tell the whole story.
What if it turns out that the woman in the seat was actually ill? And she didn't give up her seat because she was too ill to stand properly? And the supposed swear words are actually incoherent rabble brought upon by a semi-conscious state of mind induced by flu medication? We don't know that, and the pregnant woman herself might not even know that.
Besides, let's just say that the story is completely true, in which case the woman in the seat is in the wrong for not giving up her seat. Then in that case I say that the pregnant woman is just as much in the wrong for taking that woman's photograph, posting it online, and starting what is essentially a smear campaign against a complete stranger.

Girl who cursed pregnant woman in train tells her side of the storyA pregnant woman earlier alleged that this woman not only failed to offer her a Priority Seat in the train, she even cursed her and her unborn child.The woman pictured in the story has since informed STOMP of her side of the story in an email dated Feb 1.Here's what she had to say:
"The truth of this incident is I boarded the train before the pregnant lady did. I was tired and trying to sleep as you can see in the photo.
"I had no idea when she boarded or that she was maliciously taking a photo of me sleeping. She never once asked for the seat, nor did anybody around alert me of her presence.
"Nonetheless, I looked up after a while, and when I noticed her, I immediately asked, 'Do you want to sit?'
"To my shock and horror, she said 'Yes' really rudely, glaring at me, and rushed to the seat without a word of thanks!
"I then asked her, 'Hey I offered you the seat, why are you being so hostile?'
"She said, 'Of course! Couldn't you see the sign?'
"Certainly I knew I was sitting on the Priority Seat. But am I expected to be constantly on the lookout for pregnant women? I was asleep for Christ's sake, and the minute I noticed her, I offered it to her!
"There was NO '20 seconds of cursing', 'she stood up and started hurling vulgarities at me', nor did I curse her and her unborn baby.
"'A pregnant STOMPer says this woman not only did not offer her the Priority Seat in the train, she even cursed her and her unborn child' - this vicious statement is totally untrue.
"If there were SMRT cameras, I would most certainly like the public to see how ungrateful this pregnant lady really was, and worse, trying to malign me on STOMP!
"I do not deny that I called her a b***h. She certainly is the epitome of the word 'b***h'.
"The truth is, she called me one too! After I graciously offered her the seat, she called me a b***h because I said there was no need for hostility simply because I had not noticed her earlier.
"As for 'cursing her and her unborn baby'? All i said before I alighted was that it would be terribly sad if she brought up another person just like herself.
"I am not ashamed to say this because this is the true story, and I am sure everyone would agree with me that it is a great shame that a lady of her age cannot even conduct herself graciously, and is thinking of bringing up a child." -
Should post the stomper pixs instead. She is the one who ought to be ashame of herself. Want to sit dunno how to ask
Let's take anyone pix who took a pix at you in such situation so we know who should be the shameful ones...
-
I wish people would stop trying to make judgement just like that. Not having been at the actual scene and without first hand information, how would you know what the actual situation was like?
Unless you've been pregnant yourself and have experienced the exact same thing the stomper had, what rights do you have to call her a selfish person? how can she be selfish if she's trying to protect another (yes, I do agree though that the baby does belong to her.) if you've endured a whole crappy week, and would just like to have a little rest while getting back from work, it would only be human for one to be irritable and snappy, especially as the seat has already been specified that it was for "needy" people. Just by the label, it would instil, the notion, somewhere in her mind, that the seat was more or less rightly "hers". Hence the drama.
it to, however would be equally wrong if we just deemed the other lady on the seat to be a selfish, rude, person with no moral ethics. Cause by doing so, we would have neglected other factors which would have led to her behaviour. If she was asleep, which most people generally are, if would be impossible to demand her to sense random needy passengers in her sleep to suddenly awake and give up her seat to her. Also, she too might be just as in need of the seat.
The main point is that everyone should just try to show a little more consideration for each other. And to not be so petty. If neither on of them perused the matter after the lady gave up her seat, there would have been absolutely no need for this whole big issue. Ya? All this fuss about nothing.
and on the picture taking thing, its absolutely vile. it's the same “投æ‹�”aint it? you’d be totally invading the privacy of another. to post it on the net whilst spreading stories about the other person it just abominable.

wah the woman in the pic is quite chio. Later she kana gang raped sia
-
This pregnant b itch go to hell , really think whole world owe her a living , f ucking b it ch remind me of someone I work with , go to hell , hope your baby wont be like you ..
So un gracious , last time I gave up my seat to a lady who is heavily pregnant guess what she refused to take the seat , and thank me .. say she is ok ... ask me to remain seated , I feel so paiseh have to quickly run to the back of the bus, later she see me paiseh lanlan take up the seat, why come singaporean be gracious like that ??? Till today I still respect this lady
-
sorry for being so rude, but really angry when see this post , but this pregnant lady really pawned herself as the whole thing back fired and the most netizen sided the other lady
-
I find the pregnant woman abit retarded, just because someone doesn't give up seat to you, you take her pictures. What if the lady sitting on the seat was not feeling well that day?
There are so many seats on the MRT. Why aren't the other commuters giving up their seats? Is it because there are no priority seats signs?
-
Singaporeans cannot be compared to Japanese and Taiwanese.. the standards are just way to far apart..
