It has been a long time since I rode the Metro but, I do remember it being crowded. I do not remember people being worse than New Yorkers though.
I live in L.A. and we have subways now a days too. Things get silly at rush hour here just like they do back East but it is nothing like riding a new York City subway. People, even people you would not expect to be are courteous {Kids} for the most part on the subways here.
People do get up for others to sit down here which kind of blows my mind because on the freeways above, no one gives an inch.
I hope your level of courtesy and patience stays on the top of your personality while you contend with DC public transportation and have a very nice day.
