It happens everywhere though, buses, trains, restaurants. Funny story though, when we were in Boston we were taking the Subways to get around the city. Each time we got on, the trains were always pretty packed and we were standing each time. We finally got to sit down on one of the days, so I was sitting across from my brother and dad and taking up a seat and a half :) This little old lady got on the train and sat right next to me, even though there were a lot of open seats. A few stops later (at this point the train was pretty packed) two rather cute girls got on and stood right in front of my brother and dad. Later on we had a good laugh, my dad and bro got the cute girls and I got the little old lady :P So at least little old ladies don't mind our size is what I guess I'm getting at, there are always those that are going to look at us. Those are usually the same people who stare at handicap people or old people having trouble though. I just let em look.
