So, I said that and said 'I' would but I still ask why in this day and age is it expected that it always happens that way.
Why should it be that men always have to sit on the floor or stand for women,most of my female friends prefer and choose to be on the floor and they wouldn't automatically expect to be offered seats anyway.

I would offer them a seat but I have actually on public transport offered my seat to a woman who fired back,''I am perfectly capable of standing''.

Good manners goes 2 ways not just one way.
