This was not an article about not giving up our seat for a pregnant lady because we doubt her pregnancy. This was an article about TACT... A large-sized lady may look pregnant to an untrained eye, so if you had just offered a seat to her, wouldn't it be insulting her?? Also, before you make comments about others' character, please first take a look at your own. First, you made the comment about Singaporeans... you're showing neither tolerance nor understanding, but prejudice and arrogance. Secondly, the blog mentioned nothing about foreigners vs locals. Why are you bringing it up here and making an uncalled-for attack on Shang?? I'd suggest you re-read the article and apologise to the blogger for your insensitive comments!!

Anyway, I would do the same as ShangLee... and no, I wouldnt give a seat up for foreigners anymore than locals. Makaw, you obviously arent one of the brighter people around, because your statements do not follow logically from ShangLee's First time reader here…..

Given that your blog is about love, compassion, peace (and all that crap that you preach), I don't think you show very much of it but is the first to criticise others. I hope you have read the post properly and not just decide based on the size of her. Imagine asking someone "fat" and say please sit down. How do you think that'll make her feel? Show some wisdom in your words, practice what you (try to) preach for once. I think it’s you who’s having the “foreigner v local” goggles.

Malaysians and many South East Asian thinks like you do - which is very shameful indeed. Why think? Just get up and let her sit. If she's not pregnant - so what? What so shameful about it? People who live in Malaysia and Singapore are known to be very rude to their own races but will gladly do all out for a foreigners. A pregnant lady will not get a seat on a crowded train if she's a Chinese. Malay or Indian. But if she's an American or other races with Anglo-Saxon looking skin, she'll get a seat - no doubt about it. You wouldn't care less if she's pregnant. What a joke! Shame on you!
