They wanted to raise a bunch of girlie-men instead of REAL men, and now they are complaining

A REAL MAN would have immediately noticed her and asked.

I offered a seat once to a pregnant woman, and when I stood up to let her sit down a stupid punk sat down.

I whacked him in the head and yanked him out of the seat.

[Moonman62]

Why is she riding the subway?

[originalbuckeye]

Heard this on the ‘news’ today. Apparently someone tweeted back ‘I paid as much for my seat as you did’. The Left sows the wind and reaps the whirlwind. My husband and son would have given up their seat for a pregnant woman, but they are Conservative.

Olivia Wilde is pregnant? It wasn’t me. Sadly.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Excuse me, but aren't these the same people who kept saying, "Pregnancy is not an Illness" and kept demanding that pregnant women be forced to keep doing high risk jobs?

Yes, I said, "forced" and I mean "forced". Once upon a time if you were pregnant you had the option of moving to a job that was safer until your baby was born. Those jobs were usually lower in pay and status but you would have the comfort of knowing that your child was protected.

Many companies can no longer offer this option without being sued. So they just don't hire females for those jobs.

I always give up my seat for a pregnant woman, an older person, or someone with young children (male or female).

What are you squawking about?
What are you squawking about?
You women who fought to get equal rights
Then cut off your hair and stayed out at night,
Just go on and smoke all you please,
And drink till you’re weak in the knees.
But if you’re in a crowd and they tromp on your feet,
And no one gets up to give you a seat,
And they don’t tip their hat when you walk down the street,
Well, What are you squawking about, about?
What are you squawking about?

from What Are You Squawking About? by Carson Robison (1932)

I ride the NYC subway every day and give up my seat to every pregnant woman I spot. Here is a problem (which may have been the case with Olivia Wilde): sometimes you can’t tell if a woman is pregnant! Some very thin women just don’t look pregnant, while some women who are chubby or fat look pregnant when they are not. Believe me, I have jumped up and offered my seat to women who were baffled as to why I was offering, and I’ve offered my seat to women who knew I thought they were pregnant and it turned out they weren’t and they were offended. I’m not kidding about this! And I’m a woman myself, so I do get both how hard it would be to be pregnant and standing AND how much it would sting to have someone think I was pregnant when I wasn’t.

This may seem nuts, but I suggest pregnant women on the subway announce, “I’m pregnant. May I please sit down?” I guarantee many riders just didn’t notice them and will hop up.

[Buckeye McFrog]

As well she should.

I don’t know what man with any sort of manners or consideration would not give up his seat to a pregnant or elderly woman.

[Darksheare]

Wait, isn’t this the “equality” that feminists fought so hard to inflict?

[babble-on]

I once held a heavy office building door open for a pregnant woman, a stranger, in New York and she barked at me, “It’s not a disease you know!” very pissed off that I had made ANY allowance for her condition.

Basically you can’t win, because you never know who you’re dealing with. Do unto others, and then get kicked in the nuts for it.

[wardaddy]

Wilde is a major libtard big mouth

But on this she’s right

I’ve been in office waiting rooms in barely still southern metro Nashville and watched GenX and Y parents with kids sit in all the chairs while old people and women stand

The kids don’t know better

And the parents are ill raised

I always give my seat to women or older folks....and I’m older now too but eff all that

If I can barely stand I will

Call it what you will

Unless I’m Monty Python black knight I’m giving up my seat

Course I am old school southern

Along with the virtues of slavery they taught us that ...lol

[smokingfrog]

Olivia can sit on my lap.

[Boogieman]

Olivia Wilde could have my seat anytime! Now, RULES!

[PghBaldy]

A wealthy pregnant woman should not be riding the subway. There is no reason for her to do this.

[Organic Panic]

BUT BUT BUT. It’s outrageous Trump said pregnancy is inconvenient.

[daku]

I thought she was a lesbian ?

[camle]

maybe it was her attitude, or projected sense of entitlement? i was touring niagara falls last year and in a lot of back pain from too much walking when i managed to hobble onto the bus. teh bus was crowded as the day was waning, and i grabbed a strap to hang on, when this guy gets out of his seat and insists that i take his seat.i didn’t want to make him stand as he was probably as tired as i was, but he insisted, and i reluctantly acceded...

he was a young black male... this act of kindness added an element of gratitude on that trip

[newnhdad]

A feminist Hillary supporter whines about being treated the same as a man. Shocked..

[Celerity]

The subway for me is a place where I can just unleash gastric fury on people.

Just walk up and down the aisle and crop dust them with whatever vile adventure I had on park ave.
