This kind of nonsense always happens to me on the 6. When the train gets crowded (usually at Grand Central) I usually offer my seat to someone that looks like they need it. The other day I offered an elderly woman with a huge bag my seat and she gave me a dirty look. I guess she took it the wrong way but it's common courtesy.

What a great thread. I am all for old fashioned etiquette, but even I agree some rules need updating. It's great seeing people applying modern logic to traditions that in some cases are hundreds of years old.
You could just get up and let them take the seat if they like. You don't need to offer it to them.
Agreed.
As with all these things that could offend even when you are trying to do the right thing... 'Know your audience' and 'be aware of your environment'......
As with all these things that could offend even when you are trying to do the right thing... 'Know your audience' and 'be aware of your environment'...... Unfortunately you can only do so much. There have been times when I have been a traditional gentleman, only to have a lady roll her eyes and mutter under her breath 'I can open my own doors... thank you!'.
sigh. that's so "rhoda". of course they CAN. the question is whether they should HAVE to.
+ 1. I've never understood the "I can open the door myself argument." I know you can open the door, I'm not doing it because I don't think you can.
