The way we can change all this intolerant fuss, is to change "Look at them" into " Oh look at us"
I met my sister for lunch one day and was introduced to a slightly older lady who was a colleague of my Sis, a quick "Hello" and "this is my Brother", it maybe lasted 2-3 minutes before she went about her business. She seemed nice although a little 'mousey' I guess, she looked like you could blow her off her feet if you sneezed.
A few days later I was in a shitty coffee shop with a friend and this lady walked in, got a coffee and proceeded to cry her heart out for some unknown reason. Everyone in the vicinity stared, a few giggled and I heard a comment of "crazy lady" or something to that effect. I decided to be "kind" and went over asked her if she remembered meeting me and sat with her holding her hand and comforting her as she sobbed on my shoulder, with real heaving crying she thanked me and left. I never found out what it was that had upset her but my Sister told me she had later said it was the kindest thing anyone could have done as she felt so alone and humiliated.
