Should You Get Up From Your Seat To Let A Heavily Pregnant Woman Sit Down?

evil Eranu

OK,my thoughts, and just after the polish hookers thread, i am gonna be biased, a bit

SMOKING - notice the caps, has to be done - i quit around 5 months ago, i stopped counting the weeks on good advice, from the person that didnt like me smoking, and was the the first reason i quit for. Not the only reason, and tbh not even the main reason, but a good reason and I no longer smoke.

Smoking is about priorities, i loved it, but i put something else ahead of it, i really enjoyed it, it was relaxing and felt good, and was an excuse to shoot the breeze at work.

this woman obviously felt that her pregnancy was secondary to her enjoyment of smoking, harsh but fair, and i know we all have different tolerancies for that kinda thing, hell tell me the life of a child means that i aint allowed to scratch for a day (see earlier hate posts) ,and sorry, dead kid.

well maybe

No Clunk, i ain't ever seen you do the wrong thing, not that i know you, you might torture kittens on a thursday night, right before you sacrifce your youngest sibling to the sun god on an altar made of vegans skins and virgins bones., Hell, you might well be the progeny of Richard Blackwood, but i reckon in this case the only loser is the kid that has to put up with her as a parent.

nah you were right to do that clunk, i mean if she doesn't give a damn why should you.

thanks hans!

whoops, silly me :rolleyes:

I reckon i would have given her the seat anyway... but mentiond that i didnt think smoking was a great idea when she is that far along....

this must be the BEST thread this week. :)

Clunk, I applaud you're thread title and the line within it....had me do a double take :)

Stewart and Nicho are doing superb job's tryint to goad you ...but the can of special brew addition was just class.

I applaud you all....and now I need beer :)

A gentleman doesn't stop being a gentleman just because those around don't deserve the consideration. There is no-one, except yourself, who can make you any the less. I would have given up my seat.

I would probably have said something about the fag as well, but pregnancy looks like no joke and the kid wouldn't be any better off if his mum burst a few varicosities.

Yep, would have definitely given up the seat.

Why stop at having a go at pregnant women? The risks of smoking are well documented as are the health risks of vehicle emissions. So anyone smoking anywhere, or driving any vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine (they could or could not be smoking while they do that too) should be charged with attempted manslaughter

Amen, someone with a bit of sense and reasoning.

fair enough she was smoking, but I bet half of you didn't have the backbone to say a word to anyone "before" the ban came into effect.

sure she wasn't just dead fat? ;p

I could hear the baby coughing.

lol

I think its really sad actually. I would go with the "Not stand up for her" option on principle. Although I might feel sorry for the baby and just stand up anyway to let her skanky arse rest. The foetus needs all the help it can get. Really though I'd be tempted to say something to her, although in reality I probably wouldnt, being a wuss and all. :P

I dont think its ungentlemanly to not get up for her after being forced to suffer inhaling the smoke. If someone's rude to you, do you still go out of yo0ur way to be polite? By all means dont be rude back, but I see no reason to inconvenience myself for someone so rude.
