        It's sad when obviously pregnant woman can't get a seat and need to resort to this. Who raised these animals? Taught my son early 2 do this

        That button is problematic and offensive. It should read "Clump of non-viable soft tissue on board" instead.

        I've been pregnant 4 times now... my legs worked every time. Keep your seat, because if standing is too much I should stay home.

        I never felt entitled to a seat on the bus but was always very grateful if one was offered!

        It's not about being entitled, it's about safety. With a pregnant woman, if she falls that is 2 or more lives at risk. That simple.

        Something is very wrong with our society when good manners have to be encouraged by the State.
