BuzzFeed Attacks Tom Hanks for Crossing his Legs on Subway
Pundit Press ^ | 1/25/15 | Aurelius

Posted on 01/25/2015 10:15:52 AM PST by rightistight

BuzzFeed has written a full-length article about Tom Hanks crossing his legs on the subway.

The piece, called "Tom Hanks Is Just A Regular Guy Who Takes Up Too Much Room On The NYC Subway," attacks the actor for "manspreading," as BuzzFeed calls it.

An entire article because of this picture, despite the fact that BuzzFeed readily admits it "does appear there are empty seats in the subway car:"

Tom Hanks BuzzFeed

How dare Hanks, writes the article's author, Alison Vingiano. "Hanks," Vingiano quips, "is probably not a frequent rider, however, because it doesn’t seem like he’s down with the MTA’s new rules about “manspreading,” aka, when a dude takes up way too much room on the train."

Dear Alison,

Go find a stone crab, which is one of your relative bottom-feeders, find the codpiece, and (hidden text read only by folks who get it).

IMHO, that’s how a man should cross-leg: the 4 figure. I have an issue with “men” who cross their legs like women, close together.

Big deal

I cross my legs when I’m on the subway in NYC, BART in the Bay Area, The Metro DC, Metro Paris and Tube London.

Doesn’t look like there’s anyone on the train so why not relax...

That's not manspreading.

THIS is manspreading.

Looks like the woman is momspreading, taking up way too much room on the train to me. I’m sure there are many other categories. Buttspreading for obese people including most lesbians, smellspreading for unbathed or over-perfumed including most lesbians, and it’s not as if most lesbians don’t cross their legs in exactly the same manner so there’s lezspreading. Odd that lesbians appear to be behind this, since the precedent will hit them hardest.

The episode Church of No Maam’ is one of the greatest episodes in TV.

Tom Hanks takes the subway?

Yeah, right. He's leaving all the comforts of a stretch limo behind and being a good little socialist only to be harassed by feminazis because they didn't like the way he sat?!?

Screw them, Tom. Take the limo next time and double park. You can afford it.

How about the mother who’s chick-spreading by taking up a seat with her purse?

Bill Clinton is bopping underage slave girls and this woman is upset by this? She should go hang herself.
