Sitting with your legs crossed

[Szeph el raton]

A night out at a bar a month ago with my work mates got me a comment about crossing my legs too. In what world do we live in when a young woman tells you to not "behave like a gay" just because you cross your legs?

Srsly, people are able to ride a bike to work/school but not able to cross their legs? They think we believe the "it weighs 9 pounds"-hint?

I always thought of crossing your legs as being a sort of antiquated, gentlemanly thing to do. I never thought of it as gay at all. I think this is a rumor propagated by angry-abercrombie-wearing-closet-homosexuals, who are too fat to cross their legs.

Dude I do all the things I listed. If some marsupial thinks I'm gay he can ************, err wait.

I usually do this, though technically/historically it's considered rude as you should not show the soles of your shoes. I doubt 99.999% of people would care though...

So much easier than standing.

Yes, and they need us to protect them.

The method generally performed by women is considered gay.

this is a "I am ready to take some serious kack" leg crossing.

My issue is sitting on my nuts when I am at work.

Who started this thread insecure with how others viewed his leg crossing?

Always nice when the logically-impaired make appeals to reason.

It's perceived as feminine with the younger crowd. I generally do the ankle on the knee thing, even though I find crossing my legs a more comfortable position. If I'm somewhere where I don't give a ****, or around older people, I cross my legs. I think it has to do with supposedly crushing your massive balls, which is probably only reality for a few dudes.

It's just the way things are... I mean there's nothing wrong with pink, but I aint going to the gym in pink shorts.

Even though I don't cross my legs this way, I don't see how it can crush anyone's huge nuts. The bigger your nuts are, the lower they hang, and they should be hanging below your crossing leg in the first place. Just sayin', physiologically.
