I 24(F) caught a metro two days ago at 8 am after finishing a 10 hour over night work shift. All the metro seats were taken and there was a very obviously pregnant woman on board as well. She was about 7-8 months pregnant. Normally I would offer a pregnant woman my seat as I myself have been pregnant before and when I was it was an absolute pain in the ass to have to stand near the end. However there were many other able bodied people on the metro and I was extremely tired from work. Now I think because I was the only woman in the area she felt more comfortable asking me for her seat. Everyone else around us was men. When she did ask I politely told her no, and said I was extremely tired and just got off work and did not want to have to stand for 30+ minutes. She was upset but understandable and walked away. The man next to me however decided to tell me I was an asshole for not giving her my seat considering I was a woman and should be more willing to support and help other women. I then told him to please fuck off and give her his seat since he had so much to say. He called me rude and ignored me for the duration of the ride. So now reddit? Am i the asshole for not giving this lady my seat?
