CMV: People who lean their seats back on planes and trains are selfish.

They believe that their comfort is more important than the person behind them’s comfort. I understand “the seats were made to lean back so why shouldn’t I lean back?” argument. But that’s a lot like saying “couches were made to lie down why shouldn’t I lie down?” When there are a few other people in the room who are sitting on the on your kitchen table chairs because you wouldn’t get up. Yeah they still have a seat but the are far less comfortable because your selfishness. 

Just because something is convenient for you does not mean it is convenient for anybody around you. I’m sitting here with my knees jammed against the seat and my tray pushed into my chest wondering why does this man put his own comfort in front of mine? It’s because he is selfish.

Wouldn't the true fair result be a middle ground where he leans his seat back a bit, but not enough to inconvenience you? 

Because by saying he shouldn't lean back, you're doing the same thing you're mad about. You're putting your own comfort over someone else's. You're right that neither of your should place your own comfort over everyone else's. So the real fair solution would be some sort of middle ground.

Expecting nobody to recline at all in order to facilitate your own comfort is also selfish.
