Why Do Guys Spread Their Legs When Sitting on The Subway? My Weekend of Sitting Like a Man
_________
(snip) -- But of the 20 or so folks that I sat next to, most of them, male and female alike, just quietly tried to fit themselves around my body without saying a word or expressing any clear frustration. Though most of the women pulled their bodies inward and away from me for the entire ride, a few of the men slipped into the seat next to me with a pulled-together body posture, before trying to spread their legs out into my space once they were anchored in a seat. (I won those battles, by the way.)
Why weren't men and women alike calling me out when I slouched and spread? It took me a few rides to realize that it was because people were afraid that I might be crazy.

This girl is pretty funny ..... enjoy her story if you have the time.
Because we have a package we dont want to squash you cupid stunt
My guess over the years is because seating is too low for men. If seats were higher, men might more comfortable. Of course then, women wouldn’t like it because their legs would be dangling. Just my guess.
I recently saw a video, I apologize I would not be able to find a link to it, in which a man asked women to wear a prosthetic “package” and have a seat. Every woman who tried the experiment naturally and unconsciously splayed their legs upon seating. They all seemed surprised, but then they reluctantly understood “manspreading”. (Truth is, in most cases it’s the belly, not the balls. Watch an enormous woman sit. Older ones were taught to keep their ankles together, not their knees, so they spread as bad as any man.)
When you’ve got a major sized package like the One Man Gang Bang here, you need some SPACE. Can’t play football in a cubicle, either.
The fact it pisses off feminists and other SJW’s is just butter on my toast.
I wonder if she attracted any stray cats?
“... the man who takes up multiple seats on public transit with his splayed-out legs...”
I call BS.....
This must be a 7 foot tall basketball player....I’ve never seen a guy spread his legs much wider than his shoulders in any seat...
Nuts. And maybe because men with nuts BUILT that subway train, mined the ore and refined the steel its made from, bored the miles of tunnels, built the bridges that the cross the rivers. Its our train, just take what we give you Cujo the psycho. The deal is like this, you only get to wreck the life of the guy youre dating. The rest of us could give a flying fornication about your opinion on how we sit.
Gabrielle Moss has too much time on her hands.

Cause we have balls and you don’t
Airing out the nuts. If they get too sweaty, you can get a vicious rash.
This is one instance of a more general phenomenon. People showing lack of consideration for others in public places. The one who puts his/her feet on the seat across from his/hers. The one who puts stuff on a seat.
Obviously, today, man hating is rampant and it’s Ok to write drivel like this. She is incapable of seeing this as what I said it is, and can only visualize it as a MAN-ACTING-BAD problem. Also, if you were to write about women acting like turds it would not get into print. Write about men if you want to make money.
Besides, what do you ride a train maybe once or twice a year? No one in their right mind would get on the subway. Or live in a place where you had to.
Well, Gabrielle, it’s because we have external genitalia while women don’t. Believe it or not, men and women are not the same. Men require more space. Deal with it, shrew.
Ok, that was a funny piece. This woman has some writing skills!!
Because you know what they say about guys who cross their legs.
