One of the things that I cannot understand is the behavior of New Yorkers on elevators. Normally, New Yorkers are rushing past you on the street, on the escalators down to the subway, etc. These same New Yorkers, when they are in an elevator, appear to completely change their perspective on civility: If people pile into an elevator, and if some women are standing in the back and some men are standing in the front, when the elevator reaches the ground floor, the men do not get off first but try to stand to the side WITHIN the crowded elevator to let the women out first. This typically results in some awkward shuffling and needless delay while the women push their way out from the back of the elevator to get out first. Whenever this happens, I usually want to scream at the top of my lungs to the men who are standing aside: "Get the fuck out of the damn elevator first you retards!" Have New Yorkers simply not heard of the "Last In, First Out" method of exiting from crowded elevators?

The men stand aside so that they can check out the women's asses.
