Manspreading, how to deal with it?

[Anonymous]

How do you think about guys in public transportation or any other crowded spaces, who broadly spread their body, although they have other people next to them?

Don't they realize anything?🤨

[naijagurl]

I’m okay with it to some extent because I’m aware that it can hurt guys to close their legs completely but some people definitely take it too far and occupy way more space than they need to.

[Asker]

Yea , i agree. But jewel bags are quite flexible, as a man i can keep my legs together as easy as the girls can?

[anmari2001]

I have one friend who always takes most of the space in the car and it still not enough for him
Like they won't let you have space so you have to sit on them

[Asker]

Yes, it's exhibionists and conquerers behavior to me.

[anmari2001]

Well at least ine guy realize it, there is hope...

[anmari2001]

Tnx for mho❤

[MelaninDoll]

I mean like all men spread their legs it's natural they have a penis and a ball sack which is highly sensitive, i get it I really do. BUT SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO SPREAD THEIR LEGS AND BE ABOUT IN A DAMN SPLIT!! UM HELLO? I'M TRYING TO SIT SKSKSKSKSKS!

[Asker]

I fully agree with you. Aditionall y, Jewel Bags are quite flexible, no problem at all to keep you legs together as a man too.

I understand that men tend to sot a bit wider because of their junk but a lot of guys excessively spread out. I think it has to do with the fact that women are usually taught to not be an inconvience. Dont talk too loud, dont take up too much space. Men aren't taught that

[emmily2396]

They are so annoying... but same applies to the women who do it. It's not just men. I don't understand how these people don't think about the people around them.

[Asker]

Yes, either they don't realise or worse, it's male exhibitionism 😤
Women do it too, but not that massive.

[emmily2396]

Honestly, women were worst in my cases. For example, once i was traveling in a microbus and i started feeling a really bad smell... when i looked to the side i realize an old lady took her shoes off and put one of her feet on the left side of my chair...

[MelaninDoll]

you realize dudes have sensitive genital hanging in-between their legs right? I get when they spread their legs but some dudes be about in a fucking split that's what's annoying.

[Asker]

Even the most sensitive crown jewels are located in a quite flexible bag. No issue at all to stow them.
That's why men can ride bikes😉

[yasii]

That is so sexist of them!! Don't they realize I need at least two extra seats for my handbag?

[Giggletr0n]

Well, apparently if you are a douchbag from Buzzfeed you lay across 2 seats and claim it's manspreading (it isn't!) or you manspread with the intent to "bring attention to a serious issue" and then freely admit that nobody seemed to care therefore invalidating your argument 😒

[Moezan]

ffs i dont do it on purpose i got balls and a dick that both need room.
If someone is next to me I tend to realize and give them space but don't go all tumblr on me if I accidentally forget lmao this generation complains about the dumbest shit i swear

[MemeSupreme]

i don't care as long as they don't make a situation awkward or they don't take up too much space

[humptydumpty01]

I don't think they realise
Maybe try asking them politely to shift
Sometimes I don't realise too and suddenly something hits my knee or foot the I see that my leg is out of my chair

[up_64]

Most men dont realize. and i dont see people complaining when women take up a seat with their handbag

[emmily2396]

What do you mean taking a seat? Did you ask to sit down and I refused? If not, then you shouldn't complain. I usually put my handbag on the other seat but if someone wants to sit I allow them. Some people just want to stand, how am i supposed to read minds?

[up_64]

Just keep your bag on your lap. they shouldn't have to ask. or offer them the seat.

[emmily2396]

Why? the space is already narrow... sitting like that for an extended period of time isn't great, especially if a have extra luggage. Just ask, you're not a 5 year old... you don't want to be uncorfortable by not having a seat and neither do I by keeping my bag in my lap just because someone doesn't have a mouth to ask...

[up_64]

The seat if for people first. if you're not wiliing to ask keep your bag to yiurself thank you very much.

[emmily2396]

You don't get the point... why should i sit uncomfortably all the way home just because someone may want to sit there at some point? And a bus around the town it might not be a problem, but if you ever used public transportation between cities you' d understand than in some cars or trains you may not have much space.. like there is barely enough space for my kness and the seats are going backwards so there isn't much space for my bag... so why should i sit uncomfortably for hours when there are plenty of other seats available and if you want to sit exactly next to me you can ask... If the transportation vehicle is already full then I'd understand that I should take my bag off the chair before you'd have to ask, but other than that i don't see the point... you don't want to be uncomfortable and I don't either... you're an adult, you can just say you want to sit there...

[up_64]

Why should you need such a big bag. i dont. you shouldn't need one either. Set it down on your feet if necesarry

[emmily2396]

Do you even understand that i am talking about traveling on long distances? And even a small bag is annoying because you can't move much and sitting in the same position for a long period of time can be even painful. In the summer it also makes you warmer... There isn't much space down and I don't want to ruin my bag just because you're too lazy to ask. People shouldn't be uncomfortable just because you might want to sit somewhere... especially when there are plenty of seats available. Should I also avoid standing next to the exit doors just because someone may want to get off or on at some point?

[up_64]

If its long ditance then trains normally have luggage racks. at least here in spain they do.

[Littlewife]

It's not really a thing. How do you deal with a woman taking up an extra seat with her shopping? You simply ask her to make room.

[Just_A_Guy2018]

Funny when women do the bag spreading, no one bats an eye.
sexism

[blubblubblub]

i don't notice nor really care to be completely honest

[Exterminatore]

I know! Those insensitive jerks!

Seriously, people who are concerned about this or even think this is an issue need help.

[Northern_star]

i'm boycotting modern insanity by manspreading allll the time its possible,
i even bought a tram ticket, though i always use my car.. sometimes i manspread while im standing! really hard to do it, but still worth it

[Asker]

irony is to be marked😉

[Northern_star]

irony?

[SwoleCook]

I do it all the time lmao. People stare at me like who tf is this guy?

[Iamagoodguy]

It’s not a issue just ask them if they could move there legs a bit because u have no room

[kinda-confused]

Seems kind of rude

[Asker]

I fully agree 👍

[Somerandongager]

Showing their make dominance

[Somerandongager]

Male*

[BluemidnightMoon]

I don't think about it

[HereIbe]

They are unspeakable cads and have no upbringing.
