According to reports, the woman is in her 50s and is a grandmother. It is said that she was playing games with the elderly man and teasing him by saying, "I still don't know what you're up to." Some netizens criticized the man for behaving inappropriately, suggesting that he should not treat public transportation as if it were his own home.
One netizen commented, "Just because someone is elderly does not give them permission to behave like this. Seventy-year-olds and eighty-year-olds should know better than to act like this." Another netizen expressed concern, saying, "I can't imagine what would happen if younger people did something like this. It's just too scary to think about!"
The woman with the elderly man is reportedly his wife, and some netizens questioned why they were playing such games on public transportation. Overall, the incident has sparked a discussion among netizens about appropriate behavior in public spaces.
