Window seat etiquette on flights

Wow. So much to unpack.

I'm 5,0" and even at my fattest, I could curl up comfortably on most airplane seats. Almost everyone asked before reclining.
So...
Do women get treated better on airplanes? I've seen the viral stuff where passengers are hateful to each other and am wondering where that comes from. Not geographically, but what outback of the great Venn diagram of human behavior is occupied by people who decide to be dreadful to each other in such tight spaces? S'stupid.

As for the people in the above video, they're both toddlers.

 

Seems like airlines could re-jigger the seating situation so that the last row can recline.

How fucking difficult is that?

 

OK. I take your point here, JC. But I couldn't help it. I still laughed out loud at this.

 

Ah, but that would be six inches of space that's not making the airline money.

Kind of like copy editors at newspapers!

 

Whole lotta overcompensating, too.

 

Meh. Recline your seat and enjoy the ride ... er, thread.
