Give up that seat

-

This morning on the train, a gentleman got on and he was walking with a cane. It was obvious he was having difficulty balancing correctly. The train was very full because of other train issues. He stood there for a moment as others passed, and I was just getting up to offer him my seat when another woman noticed him and offered hers. He accepted graciously.

There were several young men, millennial age range, sitting close by. One in particular looked up, saw the situation and went back to looking at his phone. Mind you it was two women who were getting up to offer their seats. Not one man.
