Can you offer your seat?

Picture this-
Co Ed College.A meeting of 120 students.The boys have come in first.There aren't enough seats for everyone and some have been left standing.Enter girls.They are only 16 in number compared to the 100 boys.Some girls make room for themselves by sitting on the tables at the far end of the class.Two of them have been left standing.You would expect some guy to get up and offer his chair to them.But that doesn't happen.They stand there for an hour like that.

Why do boys do this is beyond me.The above incident is not the first time it happened at my college I saw many other examples.There should be a mutual and healthy respect amongst boys and girls which I find lacking.A simple act of giving up your chair for a girl won't make you lose anything instead it makes you more of a man.Someone rightly said "the mark of a civilization is how it treats its women''.When I tell the same thing to the people around me all I get is the usual crap.

'Anything going on between you guys'? 'wink' 'wink'
'bahut fikar hai bhai' 'kuch khass baat hai kya?' (you are very much concerned about them.any thing special huh?')

I leave them asking just this question.I just tell people to imagine that if their sister or mother or friend was standing like that for hours and other people around her just went about their way without helping her,would that make them happy?

Now coming back to the incident.I was sitting at the other diagonal end of the crowded class and there was no way of helping them from my place.I just sent a message to a boy near them and he was kind enough to adjust with his friends and give up one chair.The girls shared that chair and were visibly relieved.But i was guilty of not doing it earlier. I was just hoping that someone else would do it but nobody did and I learnt my lesson.Never hesitate.Not for an hour at least.
