I don't mind turbulence, and there's always someone near me who's scared (BTW, watch the men more closely and you will see some of them are just as scared as the women who openly show their discomfort), but I ignore the seatbelt sign because I keep it fastened from pushback to parking.
I make it tight for takeoff, landing, and serious turbulence, but leave it on, at least loosely, unless I have to get up, which I avoid doing.
There's such a thing as unforecast, unreported clear-air turbulence at the FLs, and it can kill you if you're not strapped in.
