Oh i'm so with you on the PT in Melb! I normally catch the train, but have had a pretty tricky first trimester, and was told by both GP and obs that I MUST sit on the train. Soooo... there I am, not looking PG (most of the time - sometimes I do, due to massive bloating)... having to ask for a seat.

So last night - trains were PACKED and hot... I dived over to the "priority" seats and asked two guys if I could please have a seat... the one guy got up immediately and said oh yes of course. So I was lucky that went well, but I'm paranoid about having to ask again, or having someone say - you're not PG, you're just fat (ok so maybe they wouldn't but that's what i'm afraid of!). My heart was pounding after just having to ask that one guy! Oh well.

That lady sounds like she was so rude, very annoying! Good luck for next time!
