Mainstreaming, and other feminist constructs

According to some feminist media outlets, mainstreaming is a problem, men sitting with their legs open is an attack on women apparently.

I was thinking about this among other things, and was trying to think of the other things that men do that irritate women, like the age old problem of men leaving the seat up, even though women leave the seat down, and it takes the same amount of effort to put it down as it does to lift it.

And manflu because apparently men almost die when we have a cold, but women never exaggerate any kind of illness

Your thoughts?

I get annoyed at casual sexism.

Phillip Hammond's 'joke' about women, made in Cabinet this week, and Trump's comments to Mme. Macron are just verbal manspreading. Use up the space/the oxygen and just grab the attention and power.

No I'm just drawing a comparison between when the context of sexism is shifted when men do it, and when women do it.

I lack the subtlety to be passive aggressive to be honest

Man spreading was deemed illegal somewhere in the States I think.

Though I have wondered, what are we to do with our bits - crush them?

I don't think it's impossible for a guy to sit within the parameters of a seat without crushing his bits. If it is, stand up. Manspreading is the term for the legs being so far apart he's encroached into the nest person's space.

Although perhaps the issue is simply the seat sizing?

It is not impossible no, though without sitting on a bollock, which is painful, it means wriggling or adjusting like an an adolescent. I don't see why guys should have to stand up for the sake of comfort, though it is only my take on one issue.

if a guy leaves the toilet seat up and we don't notice we fall in the toilet (not all of us have bums big enough to stop that happening) but if we leave the seat down the worst that can happen is they piss on the seat. and there was a south park episode on the dangers of leaving the toilet seat up so you know it's an issue.

I think it's funny the excuse the billy big bollocks on the world use for taking up more than their fair share of room is that otherwise their pom poms get hurty

If you want equality, put the seat and then lid down, then everyone has to move it once.

But you're missing the point, the manspread makes someone else's seat smaller and more uncomfortable! Face palm.

Your thoughts?"

I disagree with the toilet seat example ladies only have to move it slightly to put it down then gravity takes over not a lot of effort we have to fight gravity all the way raising it up definitely more effort .

Exactly this..... it has nothing to do with "occupying" space or any other feminist tosh. Sitting with your legs together simply isn't comfortable when you have meat n two veg between your thighs!

So suck it up ladies and stop whinging!

No. Make seats bigger if that's really the case. Why should I have less seating space because you're a dick.

"

Two points with this.

One.

I tend to look at the toilet before using it, even if it is to make sure I'm walking in the right direction.

Two.

I fail to see how it's a man's job to prevent a ladies toilet accident, that's going against all that feminism stands for

women multitask though and so don't look, they're already doing something while heading to the bog, probably with several kids in tow (coz let's face it they never let you go the bog on your own).

but also, if you leave potty training to women then obviously we are gonna train boys to use the toilet in the most convenient way for ourselves.

and coz it is left to us we then end up with expectations that other potty trained men have been trained the same way.

and don't get me started on leaving the tooth paste caps off and your washing on the floor. clean up after yourselves, how hard it that really? i'm not your mum, don't make me potty train you.

Thatsnot the case at all, it sounds silly. But the toilet seat thing is another example of Howden are supposed to bend to the will of women (for want of a better phrase) but thanks for reminding me about mansplaining, that's another one

Seat down can be used by everyone.

Seat up is men only.

Asking that something be returned to a state which is usable by everyone is not the opposite of feminism

No doubt I am mistaken, though I have seen articles reporting Manspreading being as much as a knee overlapping to the obvious legs in peoples spaces. There are degrees to invasion of privacy.

south park and not your mum should have given it away, let alone anything else, but i'm not even taking this topic seriously.

the most serious thing i could do with this topic is that no-one wants to see others being inconsiderate, and having your legs wide open, genitals on display (coz lets face it, if your balls are too big to close your legs then they're gonna be showing through your pants also).

i couldn't give a shit if the toilet seat is up or down, i have 3 sons. it'd be a stressful life if i gave a shit. i fall in the bog quite often, no big deal, the south park scenario never happened for me.

women multitask though and so don't look, they're already doing something while heading to the bog, probably with several kids in tow (coz let's face it they never let you go the bog on your own).

but also, if you leave potty training to women then obviously we are gonna train boys to use the toilet in the most convenient way for ourselves.

and coz it is left to us we then end up with expectations that other potty trained men have been trained the same way.

and don't get me started on leaving the tooth paste caps off and your washing on the floor. clean up after yourselves, how hard it that really? i'm not your mum, don't make me potty train you.

Wow, just wow.

I'm a single dad, I've been bringing up my son since he was 18 months old, but you felt the need to explain what it's like to nit be able to go to the toilet alone, and assume that men can't multi task.

And them men get accused of mansplaining?

The mind boggles

south park and not your mum should have given it away, let alone anything else, but i'm not even taking this topic seriously.

the most serious thing i could do with this topic is that no-one wants to see others being inconsiderate, and having your legs wide open, genitals on display (coz lets face it, if your balls are too big to close your legs then they're gonna be showing through your pants also).

i couldn't give a shit if the toilet seat is up or down, i have 3 sons. it'd be a stressful life if i gave a shit. i fall in the bog quite often, no big deal, the south park scenario never happened for me.

there was a south park episode on big balls now i think about it. "

There are episodes of South park that are dedicated to every part from the trouser area, both male and female, they were fun like that, I remember the quest for the clitoris

"I get annoyed at casual sexism.

I don't understand your response here, is that a pass-agg dig?

No I'm just drawing a comparison between when the context of sexism is shifted when men do it, and when women do it.

I lack the subtlety to be passive aggressive to be honest

I don't think anyone appreciates hypocrisy. I'm still not sure what the relevance of your post was as a response to Lickety's...

*shrugs*

I was pointing out that very hypocrisy, nothing sinister, just that

It was a non point.

To you yes, but maybe not to everyone.

Ahhhh, did some people think you were a fan of hypocrisy? Fair enough. Point necessary!

Ok, yeah we'll go with that as an explanation "

I'm teasing. But that was pass-agg so you'll be pleased to know you're capable.

"if a guy leaves the toilet seat up and we don't notice we fall in the toilet (not all of us have bums big enough to stop that happening) but if we leave the seat down the worst that can happen is they piss on the seat. and there was a south park episode on the dangers of leaving the toilet seat up so you know it's an issue.

Two points with this.

One.

I tend to look at the toilet before using it, even if it is to make sure I'm walking in the right direction.

Two.

I fail to see how it's a man's job to prevent a ladies toilet accident, that's going against all that feminism stands for

women multitask though and so don't look, they're already doing something while heading to the bog, probably with several kids in tow (coz let's face it they never let you go the bog on your own).

yeah. used to love that show, randy was my favourite character and cartman.

i'm not so sure that manspreading is that big of a feminist issue really. it's more a etiquette issue. it's possible the word man (because it's men doing it) caused some confusion?

You know why there's a seat on the toilet? To stop the piss and faeces being sprayed around the room when you flush. I don't want your shit on my toothbrush. Put the frigging seat down.

You seem to be confused about why manspreading is a problem for society. We don't care if you sit so your massive balls are comfy so long as you're not dominating others space in an egotistical effort to be seen as an alpha male.

Nope, it's just about comfort, if it were about assertion of dominance we would beat our chests and swing from the hand straps.

I sit with my ankles crossed and my knees fall about shoulder width apart, but I still got told I was manspreading, maybe it's because I'm fat and I take up more space anyway, yeah that would be it.

cant ever say toilet seat arrangements or caps off toothpaste or details of that nature ever got on my nerves, maybe im just too chilled...or maybe ive forgotten what its like to live with someone....

Hi Suzy, forgive me if I've misunderstood you -- are you suggesting that being a feminist means not liking men? being derogatory about anyone, means you dont like them doesnt it?i dont like feminists theyve lost the plot, more masculinists if you ask me, and i should know i was very much like that once, thought that to have worth i should compete, be equal, the same, but i am not the same, i am a woman, i am now loving my womanly self, and in return i appreciate men. who have embraced and hold and understand their masculine nature..i dont like the domestication of men, i feel women who do this, dont like men at all

Okay. I don't understand your form of feminism though. But that's okay. My feminism is not about man hating! "

good and no, gender as i understand it and do my best to practice, is an art form or dance of energy, beautiful in balance if lucky enough to experience it.

that is a man made false concept, to demand your own way. very human, a good excuse to bend will, which is masculine in energy terms..i dont feel the need to be equal or anything else in particular, i used to, but i dont any more, thats my truth x

My brain doesn't look at these kind of examples and think men are trying to exert their dominance ~ I just think close your legs if there ain't enough room and put the fecking toilet seat down.

"if a guy leaves the toilet seat up and we don't notice we fall in the toilet (not all of us have bums big enough to stop that happening) but if we leave the seat down the worst that can happen is they piss on the seat. and there was a south park episode on the dangers of leaving the toilet seat up so you know it's an issue.

Two points with this.

One.

I tend to look at the toilet before using it, even if it is to make sure I'm walking in the right direction.

Two.

I fail to see how it's a man's job to prevent a ladies toilet accident, that's going against all that feminism stands for"

a toilet has a lid

a lid is designed to be closed

it is impossible to close the lid as intended without lowering the seat

closing the lid prevents the small amount of faecal matter and bacteria aerosoling out if the toilet when you flush and coating many of the surfaces in your bathroom with said faecal bacteria

so...put the lid down and with it, the seat...

. I can't be bothered with such a serious discussion on this. Men/women are different. The humour in it is endless and has been shown with jokes from comedians for years. Jo brand is notorious for attacking men etc, which in some people's eyes is dated. (Especially when men go with sexist jokes towards women)

We're different, something each sex will be different to How the other sex will do things. It's how it is. And we should just think its quirky rather than offensive.

"Sorry, that should say man-spreading

I wish women would do it more.

That's what the patriarchal system wants you to say "

You joke about this, but in my (traditional, strongly gendered) upbringing I was repeatedly told off and even shamed for sitting with legs or knees apart, because it was not considered an appropriate posture for a girl/woman/lady. Occasionally I'd also be told off for sitting cross-legged, depends on how straight-laced or old-fashioned the person commenting was. The last instance of this was at the ripe old age of 19. As a result I cannot sit with my legs open unless I do it consciously.

When someone sits with their legs open it is a dominant stand. Flashing your crotch is a sign of power. Yes many people (men and women) would swing from train handles and beat on their chest if it was socially acceptable, but it is not. Sitting with your legs spread is acceptable, but we are discussing that perhaps it shouldn't be, or that people should just be more aware of the space they take up.

I will grand you that most men are larger-bodied so genuinely need more space. But this is a made worse by the fact that men are taught they never need to and should never have to take up less space, squeeze in or whatever. My husband's sense of personal space seems to be about 10cm larger than mine all around. Women tend to be smaller bodied, but also taught that small is cute, suck your gut in, diet till you're tiny, sit with your legs closed and generally be neat and tidy. The women who spread are mostly seen as repulsive. I thoroughly agree that seats need to be larger though.

I disagree with the most "men are larger" statement. These days id say most women are larger across the pelvic region. Men have testicles that don't like to be crushed between thighs. This much is true.

"And manflu because apparently men almost die when we have a cold, but women never exaggerate any kind of illness"

There will be women out there who exaggerate illness, as women are the same species as men. However, studies have been done that show doctors are more likely to dismiss women's concerns about symptoms, and are less likely to refer us for tests and other opinions, mainly because women are more likely to believe doctors (of either sex) when they tell us there's nothing wrong with us.

I'll always remember booking an appointment for my daughter as her periods went on for weeks, and the male doctor telling us, in all seriousness, that there was no point in asking him as he didn't 'do' menstruation and 'women's problems'. In the 21st century, that's a disgrace!

Women could do more to stick up for ourselves, whether its ensuring we don't put up with manspreading, mansplaining, or manterrupting. However, its past time where people stop treating men and women differently, whether its to do with our health, our income, or our ability to do stuff.

Not sure what your point is or how you can disagree with the observation that most men are larger. Sure my big-ass ass is wider than that of most men I know but they still tower over my 5'4" frame (the men, not their asses).

Though I wish men thought more of your female pelvic size comment, then when the bus is full they'd pick to sit next to a slim-hipped man rather than docile-looking me

my mum had periods every fortnight and they were really heavy, when she finally got the courage to go to the doctors he said she should be lucky she was still having periods at her age (she was in her 30s).

anyway she got the hysterectomy she needed eventually. but years later. she felt shamed into not going back to the doctors even.
