Why ‘Manspreading’ Is Definitely a Serious Issue, as Explained by the Feminist Internet
The National Review ^ | 1/6/2015 | Katherine Timpf

You might not think that it’s appropriate for the government to launch a campaign telling men how to sit on the subway. Well guess what? You’re wrong.

If you “manspread” on the subway (which, by the way, means to sit with your legs apart, in case you are a fixture of the patriarchy who doesn’t educate himself on important women’s issues), you are doing so much more than taking up space.

Here’s what’s really going on with manspreading, as explained by some of the bright, forward-thinking minds on the Feminist Internet:

1. Manspreading is saying, “Who gives a f*** if you can’t sit, [we] are men. See [our] balls.”

The feminists need to go mouth off to the Muzzies.

Hehe. My first thought too, reading the second paragraph.

This is another reason why private cars are “bad” and public transportation is “good.”

Yeah, all other issues in the world are secondary to “manspreading”. /s

These people are so stupid. They must manufacture conflict despite the fact that there are more than enough problems in the world already.

You just cannot please a Feminist. You stand up and give a female a seat and you are a pig. You stay seated and you are a pig.

If he is wearing a kilt, I might agree that that could be problematic.

Otherwise, it is nothing more than a new issue created by the feminists so they have something to complain about.

They should talk to Obama about this first, I’ve noticed several photos of him with wicked manspread.

Aren’t these the same hags who demand their “personal space” on the subway in fear of some man groping them if they are pressed up against other people?

They are deeply, deeply unhappy people.

They are so utterly, irredeemably unhappy that they have convinced themselves that the rest of the world is wrong, messed up, corrupt.

If you wait to see what they want, and then ask for the seat , you’re a pig because you couldn’t figure it out before they had to ask.

There can be only one satisfactory solution that is equatable to both sexes. Separate cars, schools, clubs, lounges, and golf courses.

Let the feminists have their own trains and forbid them to board the "man-trains" and we witness the apoplectic fit of the misandry.
