Seattle seems to be an outlier with a non-gendered approach--telling everyone to keep to one seat, rather than bashing men. Not so hard, is it?

I saw an overweight woman manspreading the other day. I initially thought to take a picture and post to show women do this, too, but then realized that the woman has to sit like this because of her size. I didn't want to make her into a prop. I realized it would be childish.

I guess my ability to understand another person's situation is the reason I don't identify with feminists.

There is a reason that men tend to sit with their legs spread, and I'll give you a hint: IT IS NOT TERRITORIAL. IT IS NOT MISOGYNY.
