On Saturday my dh and I went into London with 3 of our dc. The youngest is 5 weeks, and He was carrying her in a sling. No shortage of people,especially women willing to offer him a seat.
Today, I get on the train for a 2 hour journey, with the baby in a sling. Standing room only, not one offer.
Would rather have hopes the (female) ticket inspector might have encouraged someone to offer up a seat
I do realise I need to learn to be a bit more vocal myself, but I was so cross, it would not have been pretty.
Surely these men have mums, wives and girlfriends, it seems so disrespectful to women!
