[quote=LONELYJOURNEY,492506]I saw a photo a few days ago. It shows that New Yorkers’ rides into the commuter trains. In the photo, the window and aisle seat are occupied but the middle seat isn’t. The train is very crowded. The aisles are jammed with passengers and some of them even sit on the floor. Why don’t they take the middle seat? I searched on the internet to seek the answer. Actually, Americans hate center/middle seat. Those who take the middle seat take a great risk of being physically squeezed, unwillingly forced to listen the neighboring phone conversations, entering the ‘smell zone’ of foods eaten by their neighbors or heavy odors from the ladies who use perfume etc. What about buses? They put their backpack, lunch box or any other articles to occupy the neighboring seat in case someone takes it. Why? They don’t want ‘close contact’ with their neighbors. Do you hate the middle seat?[/quote]
