You're physically allowed to cross your legs, even as a guy. Your masculinity can't be emaciated by the way you sit.

Sitting cross legged is so comfortable and can convey so much emotions. I don't know why anyone would see it as feminine

[–] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Because it is comfortable and conveys emotions. If you are not uncomfortable and push those emotions down till you reach the point of critical hear failure, you are not acting masculine.

Ah. "If it's good it's femine". Got it, knuckleheads.

emaciated

I guess that's my word of the day.

Not sure why you brought up masculinity, though — I'd argue that getting your balls cut off doesn't make you any less of a man. It certainly does expand your repertoire of safe and comfortable seating positions, though.

They meant emasculated, emaciated means dangerously low weight, typically as a result of starvation or illness.

No, I meant crossing your legs won't thin your masculinity like I said. I brought masculinity into this because the person I responded to had already interjected it with the castration statement.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm the person you responded to. I never brought up masculinity.

Saying someone has no balls is attacking their masculinity.

Ive been sitting like that for years before coming out as a trans woman and I didnt even know it was feminine

It's just not comfortable to some. Because dick & balls.
