It’s time to get tough on manspreading.
Two men were recently arrested in New York for sitting with their legs too far apart.
The men were reportedly committing the offence of “manspreading” – the irritating action where men become the most selfish humans of all time and sit on public transport with their legs spread wide apart.
Kind of like this.
The two men in New York were arrested for ‘inconveniencing other commuters’.
A few days later, the pair appeared before a court – presumably with their legs clenched together.
The judge found their crimes were not sufficient enough to pursue a charge — and indeed, found the police were more likely being racist — as both men were Latino.

How entitled do you have to be to want to make it illegal to sit in a way that isn't painful? Men sit with their legs open because it can be painful not to. Some people, and I mean people, not men, are jerks and take up way to much space. This shouldn't be labeled man spreading, since women do it too, it should be labeled "people being jerks." You feminists are irritating beyond heck. What ever happened to "my body my choice?" At least in instances of man spreading no one is killed.
My boyfriend does this. I tell him off and I'm made out to be a whinger. Men just dont get it.
