Well, I was in Delhi a couple of days back, and it happened again!
It has become almost a rule for me now, that whenever I sit on a "Ladies Seat" in great buses of Delhi (or anywhere for that matter), I am bound to be asked to get up from my seat. Now I want to make it perfectly clear that I don't mind at all getting up and giving seat to ladies, after all its a reserved seat for them, but I am asking question, why me? (and only me??).
Out of all the people (like me) seating on ladies seats, how come each and every time I am singled out and asked to get up? I tried seating in obscure locations (hoping that ladies will ask person beside me to get up) but no, again I was asked to get up!
Is it my face which reads as if I am "an easy victim" or is it my overall appearance which says "oh, he is a nasty person, how dare he take up a ladies seat" ?
Well, I have accepted whatever may be the reason, but I am not going to have the luxury of seating in a crowded bus anymore.... :)
