Perhaps another slow day on the forum...but is this man-spread issue in sync with public spitting and swearing...and or
general lack of decorum? Are there social graces anymore? Giving up your seat for an older person? Waiting for another person to pass through a door before you? Opening the door for another person? Saying excuse me for coughing or sneezing?
Is man-spreading now acceptable behavior?

This should be less about what guys tend to do naturally and more about *bleep* that can't be bothered to give some room for someone to sit.

Dizzy, I hope you're going back in time because it probably only will be worse going forward.
My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?

I agree.. It should be about PEOPLE who have a lack of courtesy when it comes to making room for others in or on public transit or other places...
But this will /has degenerated into a man bash , complete with the typical " Hey buddy ,your junk aint so hot" quips.
If I were to ask "how much room does a woman need to breastfeed her child "? on a bus , I'd get publicly flogged. start in 3 ,2 ,1...

It's more a position as a consequence of slouching .its kind of automatic when you sit far enough back that your on your tail bone . Try sitting up properly and sitting with your knees apart . You don't see guys laying in bed trying to make room . Or running or walking that way . It's posture . And don't get me started about people with their feet up .
Strong and free

Here's an unpopular fix.
Install airline style seats on all forms of transit, good luck getting any man space there.
