What does "sit like a man" mean ?

Don't cross your legs ? 😅

    There are different styles of crossing your legs. If you put one knee over the other, that style is often seen as feminine. Compare this with putting one ankle over the other knee (so the top leg is roughly flat) and that is seen as the masculine way.

    I do both. Which one depends on the situation.

    Lmfao what

    One knee over the other is feminine? That's fucking wild because I do it, my brother does it, my dad does it and my mom doesn't.

    Guess I better start wearing a kilt and "sitting like a real man" lmfao

    It's totally a thing, at least in public perception. For example, in Fortnite, there's an emote called "Have a seat." Here's two of my skins doing it: https://i.ibb.co/Fb9BRS9J/IMG-20251109-155653-COLLAGE.jpg

    Notice anything? Spike and Chun-Li do totally different animations because they have different gender presentations.

    What the flip

    Oh well just another thing that masculinity is wrong about.

    It's just about bone structure at the hips, it's more comfortable for us to sit legs apart.
