Lol, that is one of the better songs on Automatic for the People, IMO. :)

I’ll bet Michael Stipe doesn’t Manspread. No need to!

(Actually, I love a TON of REM’s stuff. Too bad they’re such freaking leftists!)

I’m a casual fan, I guess. My favorite is The One I Love, which is the mainstream choice. I can imagine hardcore R.E.M. fans turning up their noses like a Zeppelin fan hearing your favorite is Stairway. :)

Oh, yeah. Find the River is terrific.

Bull. I refuse to squish the family jewels just to please some misandrous Lefty busy-body.

Squeezing my legs together hurts and is a violation of my person. Maybe women don’t understand what it’s like, but it really does hurt.

I guess a woman showing cleavage is “Woman Pressing”?

One of the Euroweenie countries has banned “manspreading” on public transportation.

Mandatory sitzpinkling will be next.

” men have external genitalia. “ You can say that again.

At the risk of sharing way TMI, I’ve noticed that like govt. work, mine seems to be expanding to fill its allotted space. In recent years I’ve had to buy trousers with gusseted crotches, like Duluth Trading sells.

Ahhhhh, as a lad I had a neat, compact nut sack. As a silverback—it’s like I’m having to fit one of Dumbo’s ears in my shorts.
If we can’t stretch it out at first and get comfortable, we’re miserable. Women just don’t know.

If a man is walking towards her on a narrow sidewalk and he doesn’t alter his course, she doesn’t either, and writes that she’s had “literal run-ins with guys on campus, boobs and butts hitting” because of it.

“and the regulation of women’s bodies.”

If we truly had that power she’d be on all fours 16 hours a day at least.

Just saying.

Women also sit that way too. Or use purses and bags to take extra space. Or are so grossly overweight they take a second seat.

I’m wondering if real women would even want men who sit like fairies?
*******************************
I think REAL women understand that some men have some “junk” that does not permit them to sit like fairies with their legs crossed like women sit. ...I cringe when I see men on TV sitting with their legs crossed that way!
