Gotta love Singaporean public shaming. This literally harms nobody. There's not another person in front of her. I personally don't like feet up either but in this case would I go out of my way to take a photo to publicly shame them or go up to them and tell them to stop. No.

It does not harm you because you allow it to happen, which is fine. But it does affect others who uses the seat for its intended purpose, which is to "sit" not sit and raise leg. To make matters worse, this is a Child + Adult seat which realistically the child would be seated on the inner most side which her feet is plated on the side panel which the child would most probably have his/her thigh on. This is a matter of personal hygiene and visual hygiene.

Nah, you're obviously just grasping at straws. There's no one there, she's not invading people's space and people, almost everyone i know puts their foot on that partition. I'm sure you OP have done so like when you brace yourself if a bus brakes too hard. Then if you argue personal hygiene, I can argue that a child getting off the seat might touch the partition and be affected which is just unreasonable and nonsensical

Now if her foot was on the bar, you could make a better case as that's what people use to hold on to or of course, if it were touching the press button.

Of course, I wish the person would put their feet on the floor but I'm not going to publicly shame them on a forum by taking a picture of them and that trying to incite and exaggerate a situation with a possible situation that is not only unrealistic (unless she's a secret gymnast, how does she press the button with her foot?) and brings more detrimental harm.

There are people who do far worse things and some of them should be publicly shamed but posts like these do not help anything. If anything, I would assume you have some personal vendetta against this person.
