Now if you don't recline, you force the person in front of you not to recline, and the person in front on him, and so on. It's just not a very mindful thing to do because you're actively forcing your preferences on everyone else. I feel like not reclining is only fair is there's nobody sitting in front of you or if that person has already not reclined their seat.
- DrJokepu 11y agoActively is the keyword here. Not reclining is the passive, default thing to do, because during takeoff you can't recline your seat anyway. If you had to recline your seat all the way back during takeoff, your argument would be valid.
- gusmd 11y agoMy interpretation is that deciding not to recline is a conscious, active move on your part.
- notahacker 11y agoEspecially when you go to the trouble of buying a Knee Defender to limit the movement of the person in front...
- DrJokepu 11y agoMost of the time I don't recline my seat at all because I simply forget that it's a thing I can do, especially if the person in front of me doesn't recline his seat enough that I notice it.
