Do you find it strange for guys to cross their legs while sitting?

[MangoFoalix 24,928]

Why would I care about something so meaningless like that? As far as I'm concerned anyone should sit how they want unless it's uh... harassment.

[Nye 1,652]

Should sitting position matter? Honestly, this is such a silly thing.

[Snow 6,930]

While I type this there is a businessman across from me on the train sitting with his legs crossed, it does not at all seem unusual in any way, though personally I find it uncomfortable to actually do myself and like others view it as a more feminine posture.

[Wannabrony 11,638]

In my opinion, it's one of the most uncomfortable ways to sit and I don't understand why anyone prefers this sitting position, but if you think this position is something you feel comfy with, then be my guest. Why would I judge anyone based on how they decide to sit, I don't care if you think doing the splits is the ideal sitting position for you.

I used to sit cross legged a lot but recently I started feeling uncomfortable doing it. I really don't care if another guy does it though, because what's the big deal?

[Dreambiscuit 9,575]

Sitting cross-legged is no big thing. In fact it's not a 'thing' at all. I see guys do it all the time. Girls cross their legs knee over knee and most guys cross their legs ankle over knee, but I've seen men do it both ways and it seems perfectly natural. Whatever is comfy, that's what matters here. 

[Here No Longer 5,276]

No. In fact, I do it from time to time myself.

No I don't find it strange. I'm a guy and I do it from time to time.

...... * head tilts suddenly to one side, both in confusion & the distant sound of bamboo pipes clanking together*

 Really?! Like... really? 

Never even occurred to me it was a thing anybeing else thought about, much less judged! In fact, I judge myself for doing so on entirely different reason! Don't think femininity ever comes into play here!

 Because... you know... I think the general consensus is that males might not want to so tightly close the gap betwixt the legs... where most males usually wish to have room for comfort... or not have force applied there... because they may have things there that the other genders typically don't.... Yoooou, uh, picking up what I'm putting down here...?

In fact, I often find myself strangleholding down my legs from a fierce habit because doing so should, and often does, hurt! 

Think the homosexual idea is only involved because of the assumption that less testosterone would make one less sensitive, or at least less concerned with, that general area. Though it's not like there's any link to testosterone & preference. 

 Me, probably the only reason it doesn't feel like making a Manwich outta two 2x4s every time I slam mah gams, it's probably because my thighs are so pillowy, fluffy n' comfortable.

.....

 ...Yes. I do refer to my weight as "fluffy." Shaddup, don' make me beanball you with one of my limbs!

[Codelyy 1,286]

I do actually remember back in High School feeling sort of self conscious about crossing my legs as I remember someone pointing it out once that it was "apparently" a very feminine way to sit.

Of course nowadays I don't at all care what people think and neither should anyone. It's a way of sitting, why does it matter? If it's comfy then do it. And if people judge you for it then just laugh at how low they are

It's a feminine way of sitting so I can imagine some guys getting weird glances about it, but they probably aren't as judgemental as one might imagine.

[The Kaeya Simp 13,988]

I don't find it strange at all...

I sit like that 99% of the time

One of the most comfy ways to sit!

[碇 シンジン 27,431]

i almost always sit like that so i dont think its strange at all 

[TBD 17,253]

I don't notice nor care if guys crosses their legs but I don't cross my legs while sitting. It's feels awkward and uncomfortable, plus my legs gets numbs pretty easily.

[Thorgir the Mighty 736]

What’s so strange about that?

[Kapitan zur See Hans (Daz) 883]

Yeesh, one hell of a necro. Anyway I most certainly don't, never had anybody say otherwise all my life. I personally find it comfortable for the most part, but I can see where this stigma came from. 

Either way, I've never had anyone look at me funny, ask me why I am sitting that way, or anything else. Seen plenty of other males do the same thing too, both the very masculine looking guys and to opposite side of the spectrum, in my experience hardly anybody cares the way you sit unless it is provocative or infringing on their personal space.

Nobody cares enough unless for the most part. Not saying there aren't people who will make judgments on something so petty though.

[Cash In 22,180]

I personally don't do it, but I don't find it particularly strange. It's really none of business on how others sit.

I only care when they are sitting right next to me, then it becomes my issue. Sitting cross legged makes you mindful when next to people since you dont take up any more room than needed. However, if you are sitting cross-legged in a fashion where the bottom of your shoes are facing the person next to you, or your leg is draped and resting on the other, than your not only weird, but your also a jerk.

[Appley Hooves 136]

No lol, I do it all the time to relieve pressure on my heels when they swell in the summer heat.

[O-78 28,605]

Of course not, I do it all the time when I'm sitting on the couch

[Midnight Solace 5,132]

I don't get why it would be weird. I actually do it most of the time.

[Meson Bolt 2,647]

It's a little painful for me to do that. Not for that reason. My legs just don't like it. :v

[kinda deleted 224]

I guess. My mom once told me the world's gonna roll me. Jkjk she told me about being careful of my sitting position that it won't look like girl idk

If you refer cross legs the way girls do

[Lucky Bolt 35,061]

Wouldn't that...hurt? I mean I always heard that it can be painful for guys when crossing their legs while sitting cause of their..you know...*cough*plumbing and accessories*cough*, but then, I wouldn't know, cause I ain't a guy.  But to answer the question.. do I find it weird when guys cross their legs while sitting? No. I never pay much attention to how a guy is sitting anyway, unless it's my boyfriend and I never see him cross his legs, so.....

[Mellow Mane 5,931]

Not at all! I sit like that quite often.
