In England from an actual trial:
A young woman who was several months pregnant boarded a bus.
When she noticed a young man smiling at her she began feeling
humiliated on account of her condition. She changed her seat
and he seemed more amused.
She moved again and then on her fourth move he burst out
laughing. She had him arrested.
When the case came before the court this was the man's reply
when asked why he acted in such a manner:
"When the lady boarded the bus I couldn't help noticing she
was pregnant. She sat under an advertisement which read "Coming
Soon: The Gold Dust Twins", then she moved under one that read
"Sloans Liniments remove Swelling".
I was even more amused when she sat under a shaving
advertisement which read "William's Stick Did The Trick". Then
I could not control myself any longer when on the fourth move
she sat under an advertisement which read "Dunlop Rubber would
have prevented this accident."
