[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with a premise that if you do not fit in the width of the seat provided, you need to make accommodations for that - either buy a second seat, first class, whatever. It is not shaming you or your weight to say that you do not have the right to encroach on another paying customer's seat. So just like you have the right to buy whatever seat you want (aisle, window, etc), the person next to you has a right to the entire space that they purchased.

I realize that several PPs mentioned that the airlines keep taking back these extra seats - but if we didn't have this intense fear of fat shaming, maybe they would change that practice. I'd love to believe that most people are the like the PPs coworker and dad who do pay for extra seats, but at the very least, the folks in this article did not. And I do not see why they feel that they're entitled to any space that they did not attempt to pay for. [/quote]
