Girls, would you ever not cross your legs in your skirt?

[Anonymous]

Girls cross their legs when it's one of two things. They're wearing a skirt (with no shorts on underneath or leggings etc..) orrrr, when they're possibly interested in you (depending on which way their knees are thus pointed). But, would you ever not cross your legs while wearing your skirt (whether you had something else on underneath it or not) ?

I only chose best answer because it wanted me to, however, I'm always open to more answers :)

I sometimes cross my legs. I don't know why. I'm not even wearing a skirt or anything.

I also think females are incredibly excessive about it, the moment they see someone they cross it. Like, chill out! Just because your legs aren't crossed it doesn't mean your virginity is in danger, what the hell o. o

Although it also is interesting how "agitated" guys get just from the thought of seeing underwear on a female. I always found that rather odd if it's a random girl on public transportation and stuff.

[Asker]

Well, if it was a hot girl, wouldn't you want to. Obviously I don't want to see my grandma like that, butttt, a hot girl

[Mesonfielde]

On a scale from 0 to 10, maybe I'd be curious up to a maximum point of 2.21

[Asker]

lol, suit yourself

[Mesonfielde]

okay :P

Often, it can mean what tragicallyinlove said or that they are shy or that they are not interested in you. Also pay attention to her feet if they're open or not.

[DivaMonae]

If I did I wouldn't!

I use to hate doing that and when I was little I would always sit like a guy. Not just like my thighs weren't slightly together or my ankles weren't crossed but fool blown guy sitting everything spread out.

It's way more comfortable I'm not sure why considering I don't have a crotch but it just feels more natural.

I've gotten use to sitting the "right way" but whenever I'm alone I sit how I want.

[WovenEclipse]

I usually just put my knees together, crossing your legs can be uncomfortable, then you have to keep switching legs and whilst I'm switching thats when panty shots happen :/
The way a girl sits with a skirt isn't really something you can determine how much she likes you with though :S

[Asker]

No, I didn't mean how she sits with her skirt, I meant in general. If she's pointing her legs at you, she's interested.

[Anonymous]

Maybe if i wanted to look suggestive or promiscuous

[lumos]

I've never heard that women cross their legs when they're interested in someone. Sounds dumb af to me.
Anyway, yes, sometimes I sit with my legs not crossed when I'm wearing a skirt. It's possible to not flash your girly bits even if you don't have your legs crossed. You just have to keep your legs together. Wearing a flowy skirt helps too.

[Asker]

Yes, the way her legs are point, especially her knees, shows how interested she is. Something about how the fact that she's listening to him or whatever, is shown through the fact that she's pointing towards him. It's like eye contact, the more you give, the more you're interested (you could be interested and just really shy, if you can't give a lot of eye contact, eye contact can be very intimidating sometimes)

[Asker]

I just wonder if there are girls out there who basically sit like men, with their skirt on. I'm like, really?

[lumos]

Sounds like complete BS to me. If her legs are pointed at you while you're talking, it most probably just means that she's showing that she's listening to you (especially if you're sitting across from her). It has nothing to do with how interested she is. Body language can tell you a little about a person, yes, but ultimately it's impossible to tell if someone is truly interested in you only judging by the way they sit. So I wouldn't focus too much on that.
How do you "sit like a man"? With your legs wide open, or?

[Asker]

Well, think of it this way, if she wasn't listening, she wouldn't be interested... people, if they're interested in you, will listen, as you're doing right now...
Men typically don't cross their legs. Right now I'm sitting with my laptop on my legs but, even if it wasn't, I wouldn't cross them, why should I?

[lumos]

But I'm talking about romantic interest. People can listen to you because they want to be polite, or because you're their friend. Not because they're thinking about dating you, lol. That's my point. I'm listening to you right now because it's a part of this website to listen to others, to discuss and to give advice. Not because I'm imagining what life would be like with you. :P
Anyway, girls shouldn't have to sit with their legs crossed if it isn't necessary (i. e. if they're not showing their underwear). There are ways to prevent showing your underwear while you're wearing a skirt, without actually having to cross your legs.

[Asker]

Yes, I realize that... but when you're not wearing something underneath. I'm talking just a skirt (no leggings, no shorts, no whatever). By the way, if you weren't at least somewhat interested, you wouldn't be answering me.

[Asker]

Basically what I was saying about that is, can girls and guys be "just friends". And that's the question that most people have a tough time with

[lumos]

Yeah, you can still not cross your legs even if you're wearing nothing underneath. You just have to keep your knees and legs together and it won't show anything (unless you're wearing a super tight and short skirt). Kinda like this. 1.bp.blogspot.com/.../...-peplum-skirt-sitting.jpg
How hard is that to understand, lol.
And yes, I'm interested in this discussion because the purpose of this website is to have conversations, but that doesn't mean I'm interested in YOU or DATING you. We're just talking.
Yes, girls and guys can be just friends. I have a few guy friends. Some of them are in a relationship and some of them are strictly platonic with me. We're just not interested in each other obviously, but not romantically. You can't be friends with someone you don't find interesting.

[lumos]

ignore that random "but" before "not romantically"...

[Asker]

I would think that sort of posture could get VERY annoying, and if you notice, she's got wedges (heels) on too, so it makes that sort of posture even more awkward. I don't think guys and girls can be "just friends". If they do, they're delusional

[lumos]

The only reason why it looks annoying is because her upper body is pointed in a different direction compared to her lower body/legs. If her shoulders were facing the same way as her legs, it would be no different from sitting like a regular person with pants on. There's really no other way to sit with heels, either. But it doesn't matter, I showed you that picture simply because I wanted to show you that you can sit like a normal person with a skirt, without actually flashing anyone.
I think you're delusional for making generalizations and thinking that something is universally true...

[Asker]

lol, nope

[anon56789]

Please tell me you aren't one of those guys that think a girl is interested because of the way she sits. That has to be a joke.

I personally wouldn't just because of the way I was brought up, its not ladylike to me and I couldn't do it. But I have friends that would.

[Asker]

Most women don't even know it but, when they're in to someone, they are generally faced towards them. Guys typically do the same

[anon56789]

... do people really think like that? I have to watch where my knees point from now on XD

[Victoria14]

sometimes ill just put my knees together but not fully cross my legs. i won't cross them (in a skirt) if im driving/sitting in a car though. i think thats pretty much the only time

[Asker]

Well, yeah, that'd be pretty stupid to cross them in the car while driving, haha

[Victoria14]

hahaha exactly. it wouldn't work well at all

[dymphnak]

Crossing your legs is bad for circulation so I try not to. You can still cross your ankles or keep your legs together...

[Asker]

You're not worried about it?

[dymphnak]

What is there to worry about?

[SandPlanet]

You don't seriously think women don't cross their legs when they're wearing pants, do you?

[Asker]

Less likely to. Not as dangerous... but, of course, still possible. I'm just saying, I wonder if there are women out there who don't cross their legs, while wearing their skirt (short or not, flowy (skater) or not)

[SandPlanet]

Women always cross their legs, also when wearing pants.

And well, when wearing a skirt and sitting somewhere, we don't have our legs crossed 100% of the time. You should just open your eyes and look around, you'll see for yourself.

[Asker]

Why? Why would they not cross them when they do, like I said, long OR short

[SandPlanet]

Do you sit in the same position for the whole time when you sit somewhere? No, everyone switches position after a while. No one sits the same way from beginning to end. You cross your legs, uncross them, cross them the other way around, stretch them out, and so on. Do you ever look at people? This is something you could easily observe yourself.

[Asker]

When I sit, I typically choose one way to sit. If I need to lay down to stretch them out, I will. But no, I typically will not switch positions for sitting. Why should I?

[SandPlanet]

Then you're very unique in that sense. Like I said, people usually switch positions after a while, because any position because uncomfortable after some time. And I repeat, just LOOK at people and you will observe this yourself.

[Asker]

Huh, well, I just figured all girls crossed their legs when wearing their skirt. Probably should have something else on underneath then yeah? If you are going to keep them uncrossed

[SandPlanet]

I guess.

[Anonymous]

I never do! lol. .. seriously.. although I like wearing skirts, I'm still a bit of a tomboy and that's always been too "girly" for me... I'm weird! :p lol

[Asker]

How do I know if I deserve a girl who likes wearing skirts and dresses most of the time?

[Opinion Owner]

what do you mean deserve?

[northernligths]

Yes, I would not cross my legs while wearing a skirt.

[Asker]

Care to explain

[northernligths]

Id just close my legs and not cross em.

[katiehalper]

Ok a lot of women dont cross there legs when wearing skirts

[Asker]

Like who?

[katiehalper]

I like me. I would never cross my legs in a skirt. that like saying to the guy look im slut and I want you.(my opinion no offense) I sit like a dude in skirts its more comfortable

[katiehalper]

I meant I feel like a slut when I do that because I feel like my undies are showing

[Asker]

Aren't they more likely to if you don't though?

[katiehalper]

Not really

[zombiebabe]

i guess it depends on the length of the skirt itself

[Asker]

No matter the skirt length

[Asker]

Remember, I said, no matter what she is or ISN'T wearing underneath

[Asker]

I'm really just curious about if a girl would ever not cross their legs in a skirt because I hear that when girls cross their legs, it's because it's a feminine thing to do butttt we all know how skirts can be, so, I'd figure you def. would want to cross them

[zombiebabe]

nope i won't cross my legs if my underwear will be visible to everyone

[Asker]

Really, you want people to see?

[zombiebabe]

can't you read what i've written? i've said i won't do it... damn!

[Asker]

The way you worded it was confusing, my bad. I was just checking, lol

[zombiebabe]

wtf?

[jessicaBabe]

thats our way of sitting which is way too comfortable, doesn't matter if we are wearing skirt or jeans :D

[Nanda]

ahahah sometime even if a skirt i open my legs like a man lol hahahaha (i shouldn't i kno)

[tragicallyinlove]

I just cross my legs because i find it more comfortable.

[TheNewClassic]

When no one is in front of me then i wouldn't cross my legs.

[Asker]

So, basically, at home... and even that's kind of dangerous

[TheNewClassic]

At home, public transportation, restaurants...

Why is it dangerous?

[Asker]

The whole point of the question ;)

[TheNewClassic]

Hmm, okay...

[hahsjddkaka]

Nope not if i didn't have leggings
