Reserved Seats

I always get stared by aunties who are in their early or mid-40s, whenever I sit on a reserved seat on the train. I just don’t understand why. Can’t a teenager seat on a reserved seat? Are the reserved seats only meant for elderly, pregnant woman, those with children and those who got their leg injured? I think that having this mindset is totally unfair to us, teenagers.  When we don’t offer our seat, we will get “stomped”. Because of this, I got a phobia of sitting on a reserved seat. In order for me not the get “stomped”, I will either stand or seat on the other available seats eventhough I see a reserved seat empty .
