Time Magazine: Men Who Don’t Sit and Cross their Legs are “Manifestation of Patriarchal Privilege”

Time Magazine has declared that men who are able to sit and not cross their legs are a “manifestation of patriarchal privilege.”

In an article called, “‘Man Spreaders,’ There’s No Excuse for Not Closing Your Legs on the Subway,” Time’s Etiquette section slammed men who do not sit with their legs together. But more than it being impolite and against etiquette, there is a much bigger problem with men like this: they are proliferating “the patriarchy.”

The article explains that men sitting with their legs apart “is the most visual manifestation of patriarchal privilege and that is why it is especially angering.”

...The author, Brian Moylan, then states that people don’t like men with their legs apart because “everyone” thinks of the oppression of women: “It says to everyone, “I find this comfortable and I am a man so my comfort comes before all else in this entire universe and especially you.” That’s why people hate this.”

Or in some cases, myself included, they’ve just got to pee and are waiting for the bathroom to become unoccupied by a matriarch.

I would cross my legs but there is toooo much in the way.
Glad for you it’s not a problem.

FYI I was referring only to the original author that made the statement of course.

I think the pendulum has reached its apex.

Written by someone with no testicles to crush with crossed legs.

Dang; you beat me to it.

(Every time I think the minds in some quarters have gone as much to mush as possible, something surprises me...)

That thoughts like this can occur in anyone’s mind is stark evidence of mental illness of liberals.

Time Magazine has declared that men who are able to sit and not cross their legs are a “manifestation of patriarchal privilege.” In an article called, “‘Man Spreaders,’ There’s No Excuse for Not Closing Your Legs on the Subway,”

Crossing ones legs leads to high blood pressure, increased stress on the hips, increased risk of blood clots and increased risk of varicose veins.

Time magazine is a joke.

“An idiot wrote this article, clearly”

the article is from time, so that’s redundant.

We are living in the era where lunacy is the norm.
