Pregnant Woman Sits On Man's Hand After He Refused To Remove It From The Last Free Bus Seat

The only a-hole here is the guy who refused to remove his hand.

Riding public transit can be frustrating; however, it can be somewhat tolerable if you live in an area where people exhibit some human decency. Otherwise, it is pretty much survival of the fittest, and you will have to constantly fight your way to be comfortable and secure your basic rights.

Human beings still struggle with sharing, and they can sometimes be a bit too selfish regarding certain matters. Despite this, most people are expected to adhere to the basics, which include prioritizing the elderly, pregnant women, and children. It is literally the least one could do.

We are supposed to help individuals who struggle with tasks that able-bodied people can easily accomplish with minimal effort. If we don't assist our most vulnerable, we essentially fail as a society.

The world would be much better off if people did not randomly decide to be a-holes every now and then. They do not care how it affects others' lives, and they seem to enjoy doing it for some reason. It is sadly something that cannot be predicted, and it can happen to anyone.

OP is definitely not the a-hole in this situation; she did the only logical thing since the guy wasn't willing to have an adult conversation about it. As for the husband, he should really apologize for his reaction and for defending that jerk.
