Manspreading!
Ever hear of it?
Me neither.
Manspreading is not when a real man like DoctorD spreads BBQ sauce on the ribs of the buffalo he chased down and killed with his hairy bare hands, then butchered himself.
It's when a man sits on a crowded subway with his legs spread apart, taking up some of the next seat.
NYC Transit Authority has a campaign to stamp out manspreading.
They are trying to teach men what little girls are quickly taught, "KEEP YOUR LEGS TOGETHER!"
It would be funny if it led to a lawsuit where evidence was needed to explain the anatomical reason that only men ... oh never mind.
I love these kind of things.
I'm not saying it's not a legit complaint.
It just wanders into a delicate/humorous area, the age-old battle of the sexes, and it's set in NYC one of my favorite places for people to people drama.
I'd love to be a fly on the wall of a neighborhood bar where guys with thick NJ accents complain like they are being castrated.
