This video has really opened my eyes to some previous comments on this board about how a lot of feminist really want to emasculate and feminize men. This ? said they are trying to bring men closer to the middle.
I'm asking the middle of what exactly?
@desertrain10 can you watch the video and explain to me what exactly some feminist mean by trying to bring men closer to the middle.
Manspreading or whatever is popular in white feminist discourse
But it's just suppose to me an example of how women are conditioned to shrink themselves: we are raised to sit with closed legs, to not talk or laugh too loudly, to not be seen or heard, to take up as little space in the world as possible
And with men it's the opposite
This trickles down into every aspect of our lives: from how we sit and where we choose to sit, to what we say and how we decide to say it, to what we wear and how we’re treated
I admit it's not that great of a example, talking point
And as a Blk woman I have sort of different perspective
Growing up in certain environments being direct, aggressive, "loud" etc is a matter of survival for both men and women
But going a lot of times going into largely white spaces, for Blk men and women, we are punished for it
So you still going to say black feminists aren't poisoned by white feminist rhetoric? The most obnoxious chick in the video was arguably the black one. -

@? can yall stop acting like these ? fringe "movements" mean anything? Regular level headed women pay no mind to them and neither should yall.

if ur down with them when they're at their best, you have to be down with them when they're at their worst. -

again I think using "manspreading" as a talk point was dumb...
and many white feminist have a blindspot when it comes to race and white privilege, which many blk feminist have been highly critical of dating back to the women's suffrage movement
but I agree with the thesis that women are conditioned to shrink themselves in ways men are not

They already are ? about that, and have been for years. What do you think the seat up/down battle has been over? -
I have to keep my leg spread tho cause my ? are too big and saggy. I can't wear tight jeans either or they will hurt for 2 days afterwards. I hate this new fashion trend if tight jeans. My ? has it made in JNCOs were in style.

........where have you seen this manspreading ? besides this thread? -
You know, men actually have a biological reason to sit like that. Aside from the uncomfortableness of sitting with their legs closed, sitting like that can raise the temperature in their testicles which is bad for down production
Regardless, just another reason I despise third wave feminism. You know you could very easily ask a guy to move if he's taking up too much room, just like you'd ask a woman with a bag on the seat to move
Men sitting with their legs apart is cuz of biology, not the patriarchy
? I hate how these idiots are staying to make legitimate words sound ridiculous by their blatant mis and over use
-
Why don't these hoes just sit like men if they wanna sit like men? Like are they really that desperate for approval from men that they actually care what a guy who would be offended by their ? would think?
Also, what is mansplaining? Is that when you use logic and data to back of your point of view? -

Not enough to get her elected. -
For people who are so passionate about social justice and equality for us (black people), I don't understand how you can be so indifferent and hostile to social justice and equality for women.

I am surprised at you. Do you realize that you are encouraging these guys' anti-feminism?
Even if you aren't too passionate about this particular issue, what you're saying is not helping your advocacy of feminism.
Also, maybe you might be more passionate about it if you were frequently in those situations where you have to make yourself smaller (e.g. if you used a subway to get around). -

I have no problem with feminists. REAL feminists - not feminist zealots. But this ? here is ridiculous and overstated. I can't really speak on how society conditions men and women to sit or whatever. All I know is this:
-I've never seen a man spearing his legs to take up 2-3 seats when people are standing.
-When a public place is crowded and I see an open seat, if the ? sitting next to me has his legs spread to the point that it's infringing on MY seat...I just say 'Excuse me.', if I care enough. He moves his legs. The end.
-We as humans do ? unconsciously ALL the time. When it's brought to our attention that it infringes on others, we usually change that behavior. If a person doesn't, that has no connection to their gender. That just means their an ? .
-If I saw a woman sitting on a bus with her legs spread, I wouldn't think anything of it. I honestly prolly wouldn't even notice, al things being equal.

If you're fighting injustice aren't you also fighting against inequality?
There's nothing unjust or unequal or about somebody sitting with their legs open. -

lol
maybe dumb was too strong a word
but ultimately i believe viewers are suppose to go on to question the social constructs of gender
i just don't think manspreading or at least the way the issue was presented in the video was counterproductive
and no, i don't use public transportation much anymore
