Yes. If you manspread like that, I will kick you. Manspreading is so selfish and annoying.

No, I'd give him a fist to the balls and get instant room.

I'm annoyed by idiotspreading.
Women putting their purse on the seat next to them. Guys spreading their legs. Idiots standing basically in the doors, when there is plenty of room elsewhere.
God damn it. When will people realize, that this (and pretty much every) issue is not only about some superficial feature? It's bot sexes, all races, religions. People are dumb, don't give a fuck, don't consider others…
And calling out only selected group doesn't really help. What helps then? Better education. Because apparently we need to teach people how to use public transportation like reasonable beings, not like asshole-animals. Althoug I find it hard to believe. I grew up in city so small there is no detectable PT. Then moved into bigger city, and…it was just obvious. How to…you know…use PT like civilized person.If someone sat like the guy in the picture, I'm pretty sure he would have got an earful from other passangers already. Spreading your legs like the girl on the far left is a-okay, but the guy's position is obviously exaggerated. If that happened in real life, it won't happen the next time.
It definitely gives the impression a man is confident and maybe even a little cocky. I don't like a man that is too cocky because I automatically think he is a player as well. I don't want to be played or cheated on so I generally avoid men that give the impression of being overly confident or cocky. So if I don't know the man than yes it would be a turn off. If its my boyfriend and I already know what he is like than I probably wouldn't even notice him doing it or care. Once I know he is a good guy than I want him to be confident and strong but only doe me.
Mhh, I haven't noticed. I think it almost never happens where I live. People usually spread only when there's more space available around. Both, men and women, spread when there's space avaliable.
I have see more often people using a full seat for their personal objects, though, and some wouldn't put their stuff on the floor even if there weren't more seats available. Also seen once or twice teens putting their legs in the next seat.
Anyway, if you are occupying a seat more than you really need with your body or your objects when the train or vehicle is almost full, you are beign disrespectful and annoying regardless of sex, age, culture or race. That's it. No manspreading, womanspreading, womanpursing, teenagelegging, elderlyshoppingbagging or whatever stupid term we can come up with. Keep it simple: don't occupy more than you really need.Yes because it's disrespectful, they don't care that they're taking all the place and bothering people. I can understand it's more comfortable to them but for me laying down is more comfortable but that don't mean I would be laying down in public place. (and when I do when I see someone wanting to sit beside me I just sit normally).
Manspreading is ok but if someone is sitting next to you then just sit normally.I honestly don't care. The majority of guys sit like that so I'm guessing it is normal for them. I've seen worse things in the bus and subway than a man "manspreading". Like people having their stupid purses/backpacks on a seat. Or someone putting their feet on a seat as well.
The picture is clearly posed , anyone REALLY sitting like that , will at some point , have their legs shoved out of the way / kicked / elbowed etc , as that is simply acting like a twat. Women tend to bag-spread and put their bags on seats. I hate idiots putting their feet on seats.. esp in wet weather , both genders do this all too frequently. One of the main reasons I start and finish work early where possible , much less busy... and Spotify in my ears... always at least one muppet engaged in an inane , loud , mobile phone pointless conversation.
Sometimes if you don't stretch out a bit, you can get a cramp. And then the only way to fix it is to spread out.
I don't know why women think it's so malevolent, and that men are doing it as some kind of "show of dominance," they have all these wacked-out theories about the secret psychology of manspreading. . .
I wonder if women actually even realize that men's hips and pelvis are shaped different, our muscles are attached at slightly different spots, we have a whole different set-up down there, do they even take that into account when they're writing their man-hate articles about how men are all just domineering brutes 24/7?Honestly no. I’ve never even come across it in a situation where it impeded on my personal space to a large degree. If it’s like anything in the picture however then yeah I’d be annoyed. That’s just unnecessary.
What a lot of feminist don't understand is that men have this thing called a scrotum between our legs. The reason we sit with our legs apart ( needless to say the guy in the pic above is an exaggeration) is because if we st with our legs closed all the way it puts pressure on the scrotum and this sensation can range from bothersome to painful.
The whole man spreading bullshit is just some over reaction from some radical feminists who need something to get offended by (which is basically everything)Yes lol we need leg room too sometimes or own our space. There should be a certain amount to how much a guy opens his legs to show he is confident or if he has a big one but sometimes it’s ridiculous how much some men open there legs for no reason like the guy in the picture. It’s just unnecessary unless the man also has extra space it’s fine or has a whole seat to himself I wouldn’t mind. I don’t see guys opening their legs though that much which is a relief I rarely see them do that as most aren’t a nuisance.
That's not manspreading, that's just being an asshole. That is so over-the-top.
Don't tell me you believe in this sexist term of "manspreading" and "mansplaining". It's weak.I can't believe that some women think that most men do this on purpose.
Men have genitaila that need more space than women's , thus we need to give it a bit more space.
This picture is exaggerated, you won't find anything like this on your normal transport.Yes. I grew up with eight brothers and none of them do this of we're in a car or on a public transport. Yet I've seen countless men who do it all the time and claim it's more comfortable and sometimes sitting the other way hurts their privates. Which I find dumb considering none of my brothers have ever whined about that problem themselves. If your next to someone then close your legs. It's not hard
It's not a real thing that I've ever encountered, and any time I've seen someone do it, it was Buzzfeed showing how terrible guys are by overdramatically acting it out
Sometimes yes, when I sit near them in the bus, half of my body is juggling and we don't have straight roads here, once I nearly felt down.
Totally not staged picture...
yeah, things like that do not happen in reality, only for cringey social experiments.I take the bus everyday to school and back, so I'm used to other people taking up room outside of their seat occasionally, but I remember once this guy was taking up legit half of my seat because be was slouching as well, and I was pissed because the bus was already crowded in the hall as well. I understand that people can't help it sometimes but I get annoyed if your taking up my personal space to an extent where its just ignorance male, or female.
That's the wY guys sit. There's no need for them to keep their legs together. Sometimes I don't either.
I’m only annoyed by my mum telling me I can’t do it because it’s not ladylike.
