&gt; Just ask a motherf*@&amp;er to move.<p>Even that&#x27;s not even usually necessary.  I tried to avoid manspreading when I realized it was a thing, but I can&#x27;t.  I have testicles.  Sitting like someone without testicles is rather uncomfortable.  That said, if someone is nearing the seat next to me, I will (and anecdotally, so will everyone else I observed) pull my legs closer together to accommodate.<p>When this was a thing, most of the pics I saw on Tumblr were photos of guys being shamed for spreading even while the bus&#x2F;subway&#x2F;metro&#x2F;whatever was only half full, and there was no reason for anyone to have to sit uncomfortably.
