If she or someone else gets pissy, just be blunt. "Sorry, but I just had hernia surgery and my balls hurt."

If they're an obvious SJW type, follow that up with "Demanding that people with medical disabilities confirm to your expectations is ableist, and I am triggered."

You should have told her to stop womanbitching and go sit somewhere else lol.

In NYC they've been giving man spreading summonses, part of the feminist objective of criminalising Existing While Male.

Otoh, you'd have had valid medical grounds for suit against the lady for violation of the local disabilities legislation.

I can't believe this is even a thing that someone would take seriously. Who were you even hurting? Feminism is enabling some seriously psycho behavior and it NEEDS to be called out more!

So you were literally going through one of the most uncomfortable things that a man can go through and this cunt is giving you the devil bitch face? These are the kinds of women that need a proper kick in the cunt, forced to mow the lawn, re-shingle the roof and then carry a 100 pound bookshelf up to the second floor.

ell I know I was doing that because I'm still in a lot of pain but what pissed me off was that in the entire train car we were about a half dozen and there were way plenty of seats available.

That's when you have to open your mouth and very loudly (so everyone else can hear) tell her "yes, my legs are spread because I just had surgery there and I'm in a lot of pain. You're frightening me. Would you please stand somewhere else?" Make sure everyone can hear you say she's frightening you, so if she does attack and you have to fight back, everyone knows you asked her to go away first.

I had a stroke and a heart attack in December. I actually died, they brought me back. When I go shopping now I use the electric ride-on shopping carts - I can walk the store, but it's very tiring to do so, so I don't. I get a lot of dirty looks and angry comments when I'm in the cart (even though my cane is sticking out of the basket, and people are very nice to me when I'm standing with the cane). I think people fail to see the cane and think I'm just riding the machine because I'm lazy. I've learned that when someone wants to get nasty to me, I just say "you can complain to me after you've had a heart attack." It tends to shut them up.

I just submitted a CNN headline story about this a few days ago to this sub. Two days ago I actually paid attention and, ironically, saw 4 women "manspreading" and 1 man sitting knee-on-knee cross-legged.

You know, in this thread, I've seen alot of hate and things said that shouldn't really be said. Are we really different to feminists if we make these "joking" comments full of hate? I may be downvoted for this, but we shouldn't be the same as the #KillAllMen crowd. We should be compassionate and logical, not hateful and emotional.

TheDude41 · 2016-06-26T06:53:57+00:00

If anyone ever approaches me about this supposed crime, I promise to let rip a long smelly one, right in front of them.

what you do is whatever you have to and fuck that crazy bitch... its none of her business.

maybe invest in a taser in case you get one of these even more aggressive idiots that tries to actually sit on you to "prove a point". (not really... you'll just end up in more pain yourself most likely but if something like that happened I would love to watch the video of the idiot being tazed!

barryy123 · 2016-06-26T11:07:42+00:00

That's an unfortunate situation. If it happens again, stand face to face with the accuser and let it be known that you are ready to defend yourself and impose your will. 99% of the time people who call out shit like that will back down. Don't be afraid to absolute defend yourself to your utmost ability if it gets confrontational

scanspeak · 2016-06-27T00:17:38+00:00

Don't apologize.

Don't say you're scared.

Tell her to go fuck herself.

Until men fight back we're going to keep being treated like dogs.
