    Yes it is a big deal - huge actually.

    Men who cross their legs are for the watching..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 666 ✭✭✭DeltaWhite


    The extreme pettiness in the world is exhausting...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kraggy


    You're dad is right.

    And women shouldn't wear trousers.

    :confused:

    Step into their blind spot and watch out for the hooks they have for hands.

    Also, why do you think they're crossing their legs like women? They could be crossing their legs like men, couldn't they? The subtlety must be lost on me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    I only found out today that men and women's shirts button differently. Won't stop me wearing them though.

    What do you mean cross your legs 'like a woman'? As opposed to what? Like a centipede? Like a giraffe? Men and women are the same species, with the same type of legs. There's only one way to cross them and both sexes do it the same way.

    I think the fly on jeans is different too. Maybe I'm just making that up though.

    Are you a knee man or an ankle man?

    Women cross their legs thigh over thigh. Men usually lift an ankle over the knee of the other leg.

    How can the fly be the other way round?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,814 ✭✭✭TPD


    I find it too uncomfortable to cross my legs that way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,750 ✭✭✭iDave


    I do believe it makes you look like one of them there homer-sexuals

    That's not crossing your legs - that's propping a foot up on the other leg.

    something like that. Dunno

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,572 ✭✭✭✭brummytom


    I always sit on one of my legs, usually my right. I sort of tuck it under myself.
    Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this?


  • Registered Users Posts: 251 ✭✭Terry1985


    It's a sign of insecurity, trying to protect yourself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,299 ✭✭✭✭MadsL


    Are there men who take off T-Shirts like women too?

    Men: Back of the collar - pull up
    Women: Cross arms, grab hem - pull up


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    I remember the weekend before starting secondary my older cousin gave me a few tips.

    They included when your sitting cross legged, to do so with one ankle lifted onto the other knee, or outstretched with one ankle overlapping the other, and to never, ever wear white socks.

    I'll pass his sage advice on to my kids, and take it with me to the grave.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,648 ✭✭✭Cody Pomeray


    If you do it, you must show 5mm of skin between trouser and sock.

    That's the old man way.

    Anything else is gay.

    OP your father is right. Crossing your legs like a woman constricts the air flow to your balls, leading to overheating, decreased sperm count and lower fertility*. It's his future grandchildren he's concerned about. Real men let their junk hang out.

    *Scientifically proven fact.

    I'm a guy and I think that's the most uncomfortable way to cross your legs. I didn't even realise this was a thing until about two years ago. Honestly, people should just sit how they bloody well like. I'd sit upside down on sofas if it wasn't so difficult to drink wine that way.

    My cock is too big to cross my legs comfortably but I bear no ill will to those that do.

    And the way belts are meant to face XD

    gender differences bug me. But I reckon as years go by there will be less and less.

    A guy is not meant to "cross their legs", If you must, you lift the leg,placing the foot over knee on other leg. If that makes sense.

    "crossing legs" is considered a "lady" thing to do.

    OP, I'd tell your Da, if bothers him so, he should've raised you better :P

    Never realised that there were so many differences between men and women, someone will be on next to say that they pee differently.

    its a sign of little equipment


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭Crooked Jack


    I am guilty of this but i tend to make it a bit more masculine by having to pull my bag out from between my thighs as i do it.

    nope,I do it at work all the time, I expect a blood clot any day now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,797 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    I'm not able to do it, it hurts me bollix :D

    Any time I cross my legs it's usually just putting one foot on top of my other knee, so you get an upside down triangle between your leg and your bollocks. Any closer together than that and I'd worry about damaging the future hatrickpatrick Jrs in there :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    Dont do it for the simple reason it squashes my balls. I like my balls (very very much) and would like to keep them so crossing my legs like a woman is not an option.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,678 ✭✭✭I Heart Internet


    Putting an ankle or shoe on the opposite knee is a man's leg cross.

    As the supporting knee travels further up the cross-over-leg, your chances of becoming a woman or a ghey increases.

    Half way up is passible for a man, if he has a strong chin or can change a tyre in under 5 minutes.

    Once you get to the knee on knee with your cross-over-leg draped down the front of your supporting leg you (as well as probably being very tall) have entered womanhood or are properly ghey.

    In fairness though OP - your old-man sounds like a right eejit.

    Their legs are very different. I have never commented on a man having a fine pair of legs.

    :P

    As for the crossing the legs, theres two ways I know, one where the top leg sits horizontal on the bottom leg, and one where it hangs to to side.

    :confused:
