The OP complains about tzadikim because they don’t come in the elevator with her. She says that “the whole ride is less than 30 seconds.” Well, I don’t care if there is a rabbi somewhere who says it is okay. There are those who say it isn’t okay. And these men have a right, nay obligation, to follow their posek on that. Even if it offends someone. Because it is something that shouldn’t offend. It should be admired. I mean they’re not telling her to wait for the next elevator! HE is waiting for the next elevator. And HIS hanhaga is to not go in the elevator with a strange woman. Respect that.
