MANILA, Philippines – A guy had to air his side after a woman shamed him on Facebook for not giving up his seat so she could sit down in what appears to be a long journey to Bulacan. But most netizens actually picked his side, defending him from the woman and her friends.
A woman who was traveling to Bulacan angrily shares a photo of her position in the packed bus as she stood on the aisle because there were no more seats available. She was angry that none of the men in the bus offered her a seat and posted snapshots from the bus, clearly showing the face of one guy passenger.
“Anong masasabi niyo sa posisyon ko ngayon? Ang saya di ba! Sa panahon ngayon wala ng gentleman,” wrote the female passenger, posting under the name ‘Sam Francisco Datu’.
She didn’t really write that she meant the guy sitting at her back, but the original post clearly shows his face [covered by The Summit Express for privacy]. The guy, Denmark Maranan, later aired his side after getting bashed by the woman’s friends and other people on social media.
Denmark wrote in a separate Facebook post, sharing a screenshot of Sam’s post as shared to him by a friend.
“Nakakaiyak lang at sisikat ako sa paraan na ginawa ni ate ! Gusto ko Lang din paliwanag yung side ko! 😭😭😭
Monday to Saturday gumigising ako ng 4am para pumasok sa work. from pandi Bulacan to Sta. Cruz manila. Ang maaga naming uwi Ng misis ko, swerte na sa 8:30pm kapag minalas malas ka pa Aabutin ka pa Ng 9pm to 10pm kapag traffic. Kahit sa office ako pumapasok iba pa Rin Yung pagod at antok sa araw na araw na byahe ko. Minsan di na ko nakakapasok ng sabado dahil sa pagod.
May bahay kami sa Valenzuela pero mas pinipili Kong umuwi Ng Bulacan kahit pagod na pagod Makita ko Lang anak ko kahit tulog na.”
While Denmark understandably feels bad about the situation, he said that he doesn’t feel angry or sad about getting bashed because he knows for himself what kind of person he is. He was simply just really tired.
“Kay Ms. Sam Francisco Datu pasensya na Kung di Kita napaupo knina , pagod at puyat Lang po ako . Wala akong galit o sama Ng loob Kung ibash man ako Ng mga nakakakilala sayo. Basta ko kilala naman ako Ng mga taong nakapaligid sakin Kung anong ugaling Tao meron ako. Godbless!
Please share di ko masearch FB ni Mis. Datu sinend Lang Ng kaibigan ko sakin. gusto ko Lang mag sorry Kasi di ko sya napaupo sa upuan ko at mag thank you na din ako kasi sisikat ako nito! HAHAHAHAHA! 🙂🙂🙂”
Many of Denmark’s friends supported the post, vouching for his kindness and integrity. Many got angry at the woman for shaming him on social media, especially after learning that she boarded the bus at the last minute, despite being told that there are no more seats available.

Ganun tlga laht tayo mga pagod. Alm nya n punuan at tatayo magtiis sya. Sumakay sya e .nkpag selfie nga at nagpsikat sya ng tao e..not because sexy sya is assuming n may magpapaupo n? Come on! Ndi k nmn buntis or pwd db?
ReplyDeleteOverconfidence kase si nebeng na may mgpaupo sa kanya...sometimes we take the risk for our actions.......pero fishy din on the part ng lalake,..kse pagod dw pero di mn natulog...wagas mkasilip...nasayangan sa view ahead....
ReplyDeleteBakit dahil ba hinde nakatulog hinde na pagod?paano mo nalalaman, sumakay yong babae na alam nya na puno na kaya magdusa sya.
Deletein the event of gender equality we girls should not expect gentlemanly actions from the boys. I think the intention of THE GIRL WAS JUST TO SHOW OFF USING INNOCENT PEOPLE FOR HER WHORELY INTENTIONS ....NAKAPOSE PA NGA CYA E. kUNG AKO KAY KUYA DEMANDA NYA VIOLATING DATA PRIVACY , PINICTURAN KA INUPLOAD WITHOUT YOUR KNOWING.... BABAE AKO DAPAT NASA SIDE AKO NI GIRL DATU.. PERO SORRY , DI KO MAKITAAN NG REASON.
ReplyDeleteSa panahon ngayun na ipinaglalaban nyo ang equality among genders, what would you expect? Risk mo yang tumayo sa bus kahit alam mong punuan na. Wag ka mareklamo. Pag kulubot na makinis mong balat at lawlaw na mga assests mo, age 60 above siguradi may priority seat ka na neng
ReplyDeletedon't judge people to get your attention!!!! kawawa nmn c kuya ok lang yan kuya. karma will strikes her. kapal ng mukha ni ate nagpapasikat tuloy napahiya ka! mahirap kaya kapag may pamilya kang tao may anak kang nagaantay. tesa pagmumukha mong yan an sama ng ugali mo napakapangit makita ka ng pamilya mo ! mgging proud kaya sila sa inyo. pinahiya mo an pamilya mo sa ginawa momg yan ganyan ka ba pinalaki ng mga magulang mo!
ReplyDeletegender equality goes with self reliance (i think).. wag umasa na someone (male or female) will give up something for your comfort.. ������
ReplyDeleteYan ang sinasabi ko dati pa. Yung mga tao ngayon, basta basta nagpopost sa social media. Di nga alam side ni kuya. Ate halatang fresh ka naman... Si kuya halatang pagod. Oo babae ka, pero ano bang pinagkaiba mo kay kuya? Eh kaya mo din naman tumayo. Di ka naman PWD o buntis eh. Dapat next time pag alam mong puno na ang bus, wag kana sumakay kasi siguradong tatayo ka. Pareho lng naman kayo nagbabayad.
ReplyDeleteOo nga !
DeleteNako ate sana nagtaxi kana Lang, bakit kapa sumasakay sa punuan na Bus, feel mo kase pag maganda makinis may magpapaupo sayo.. Hnd na uso yan ngayon.. Hndi kana man Disable, Pregy or Senior Citizen.. Tiisin neo pong tumayo.. ������ May papost kapa..
ReplyDeletefeeling maganda kc kaya kala nya papaupuin sya ng mga lalaki...hindi napo uso yan dahil sa panahon ngayon hindi lahat ng maganda ay babae...mwehehe
ReplyDeleteTanga! Kabalo naman diay ka nga ouno nganu mag sakay pa Man ka? Tapos mang bash ka ug tao kay.wala ka gi palingkod! Juice colored inday wag puro paganda lang alam.paniid pud sa imong palibot.
ReplyDeleteSana maging lesson po eto sa bawat Isa..kapag alam nyo puno ang bus at sumakay kayo ibigsabihin lng nun na payag kayo n nakatayo kayo..... Choice po ninyong sumakay kahit puno na Kaya dapat panindigan.
ReplyDeletefelling entitled kasi di ate. ginagawang rason ang pagiging babae para manloko ng tao. pumunta sana siya ng mas maaga o naghintay nv susunod na biyahe kung gusto umupo
