LadyPact -> RE: EXPERIMENT: Women Try 'Manspreading'! (6/26/2017 10:26:09 AM)
|
I promise. This is how this went in my home. (I happen to think it's amusing.)
Me: Honey, do you know what manspreading is?
MP: Do you mean man 'splaining?
Me: No. Manspreading.
(He proceeds to tell me he doesn't and gets that look on his face when he's preparing himself to hear something stupid.)
Me: Would you sit down for me for a sec?
MP: Why?
Me: Just do it for me. I want to see something.
(He sits. I look to see how far his legs are apart. For those of you who have never met MP, he is a slender built guy. Much the same frame as rm displayed in a pic he posted years ago. MP's legs, while sitting, were well within the range of not intruding on what would have been other people's leg room if he would have had other people sitting on each side.)
Me: OK. Thank you. That's what I wanted to know.
MP: I don't get it.
(From here, I explain the thread, who started the thread, and what I was looking for. Granted, MP doesn't post on these boards much, anymore. Still, he knows some of the posters by name recognition, if nothing else. I won't repeat some of the more colorful comments that ensued. I can assure folks that this part of the conversation was funny.)
This part is extra. I might be older than some of the other women on the boards. However, I doubt very highly that I am the only female bodied poster here who was told to "sit like a lady" from the time I was knee high to a grasshopper. Yeah, it's for different reasons. Usually something to do with a skirt and people not wanting their daughters to be flashing the panty shot. Still, you can bet I was told how to sit when in public. Conveniently, all of the versions of sitting like a lady, (aka sitting with your legs together) has the added benefit of me not taking up the leg room of other people. If I can do it, I'm pretty sure other people can if they aren't disabled in some way.
(At home, I will admit that I have the same habit as Winsome. Usually left foot tucked under me, right foot on the floor. I'm also 5'2" and it gives me a couple of inches 'up' in a seated position.)

Are you willing to try the lived experience of a male like the video? If not, shut the hell up!
I've got a fair bit of confidence in the ability to do this as well. (I did watch the video.) Of course, you have to remember, it's not like I've never worn a strap-on before. I already know that I can sit, walk, and accomplish a few other activities with the apparatus. It's a little different when doing such things with an object that is foreign to you and not as flexible as flesh and blood, so the women in the video having trouble should be expected.
I'd love to see the experiment tried the other way around. I wonder how many men would be willing to have it simulated for them how uncomfortable feminine hygiene products would be for a day. Better yet, the pregnancy simulator. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5H6MmJvs_Mg
