[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reclining is permitted.  No one is disputing that.

That said, if you recline, you are prioritizing your comfort over that of the person behind you.  That's just a fact.  It's your right to do so, but don't delude yourself into thinking that it is universally accepted.  Lots of things are legal, and permitted, but we choose not to do them to be considerate to others.

I and many others think that on daytime flights, particularly short ones, it is inconsiderate and bad manners and inconsiderate to recline.  Again, no one is saying that it isn't your right to do so.

If someone reclines in front of me, the only thing I do is free myself of any obligation to concern myself with their comfort.  I don't retaliate, but I also don't think about them.  If I need to grab the seatback to get up, that's fine.  If I jostle them getting something out of the seat pocket, no worries.  If my knees repeatedly hit their reclined seat, I don't care.

Fly business class then and quit complaining. [/quote]
