Good. Manspreading isn't a problem, but what is a problem is that women are expected to take up as little space as possible. Sitting ladylike and such. Everyone should be allowed to be comfortable.
Something i found out fairly recently was that men have a higher center of mass and narrower hips and thus they need to splay their legs more. I would agree that no one should shame women for not sitting “ladylike”, afterall i think freedom is the answer to most questions of inequality. But it would go quite a ways towards explaining why men feel the need to do so more than women.
Manspreading IS an annoyance. If the people who do that could just refrain from spreading for just a few stations. Doesn't matter about their hips or center if gravity. It's just being polite. Don't think the chair will be commercialized anyway. It's just for the statement, right?
It's only a breach of politeness if you take more than your seat's space. If you intrude on other's, that's not good. If you sit a bit open because otherwise it hurts, then that's just being normal
Idk man I think the guys on the train and bus need to learn to control their legs a little better. Sure sit wide but don’t do it on top of someone else or their belongings
