[quote=Anonymous]Using a seat for bags is very rude if the train is standing room only. People on the Metro couldn't care less about allowing those with additional needs to sit, though. I am quite frequently on crutches, either underarm or forearm, and occasionally use a walker, so my disability is quite visible. Even when I've explicitly asked to be given a seat, I have been turned down. Some people who give explanations might be being truthful (such as, "I too have a disability and need to sit, but my disability is Invisible"),`but others just say no, ignore me, or intentionally turn the other way. Some of those who are seated might have a need to sit, and it's no one else's business what their need is. However, not offering a seat to someone just so you can stretch out or have a place for your bags is very rude. [/quote]
