For example, 99% of women cross their legs like this:

Many men of power cross their legs the same way:

However, at our softball game the other night, this one dude on our team was crossing his legs like in the pictures above, and he was ridiculed. I guess he was expected to cross his legs like this:

I don't cross my legs since my balls are oversized, but I can see crossing them like in the two top pics being more comfortable.

What does the OT say?

any guy who crosses his legs like this while wearing shorts should be shot. nobody wants to look at your balls brah.

CornDogCologne•158 months

ankle over knee feels better to me and no accusations of being a fig. win-win.

and showing my balls off while wearing shorts is just another reason to love warm weather. stop staring at my crotch, brah.

pochejp•158 months

My balls are way too big to cross like Obama does.

colorchangintiger•158 months

I cant

Ric Flair•158 months

I cross like the top picture if I'm dressed up, typically with my hands clasped around the top knee.

Celery•158 months

It's more comfy lady style. You just gotta move your balls outta the way.

LSUChamp06•158 months

ghey

IceTiger•158 months

thighs are big, healthy wang, medium ballzack and nerve damage to my right leg equals

no frickin way I can cross like a girl;

however, I can cross at the ankles and cross with the ankle on the knee

Walt OReilly•158 months

I cross mine both ways

My dicks not big enough to stop me

LCA131•158 months

I mostly sit on the floor indian style....or kneel facing Mecca

Tiger HouTX•158 months

can do any way other than ankle to knee.

LSUTygerFan•158 months

I don'y know about acceptable but, it's uncomfortable as hell.

Htown Tiger•158 months

I will cross them both ways, just depends on the situation.

However, people should note there is a difference in how Cheney is crossing his and how Obama is crossing his. Obama does it like the girl above, where his leg is crossed all the way over on the other side. I cant do that.

Cheney does it where the underpart of one knee sits on top of his other knee. That is how I do it, and fully acceptable IMO.

TopWaterTiger •158 months

agree with htown

REB BEER•158 months

With cowbells like these, there is absolutely no comfortable way to cross my legs.

Just sayin'

I do that in public just so that I'm not constantly hounded by hot chicks.

But seriously, if you do that and it's uncomfortable for your balls, you're doing it wrong.

It's a continental European thing, the men there generally do it that way.

OneMoreTime•158 months

I cannot physically do the first one. I always do the ankle over the knee

RagingStiff•158 months

like a gentleman

Festus•158 months

I cross em like the chick. It doesn't effect my ballsack at all. As the right leg lifts to go over the left, my balls drop comfortably under my right leg.

The only way I can imagine it having any effect would be if you grabbed your balls and pulled them up while crossing. That's just silly.

When I'm evaluating patients in the clinic, I find it easier to cross my legs like the first picture simply because it is easier to write on a clipboard that way. Otherwise, I do the second picture.

DanTiger•158 months

I can't cross my legs like that as they are too large so I have always called men who do it light in the loafers. Perhaps if I were able to cross my legs I would have a different perspective.

Topwater Trout•158 months

I sit indian style on the floor.

I'm double jointed, so I find it impossible to sit Indian Style. I can do it easily with both of my knees going inward rather than outward.

Pics lol that seems impossible....FTR i don't sit indian style.

Why not sit comfortably, with no crossing?

OMLandshark•158 months

I'll do either. I really don't give a shite.

DeafJam73•158 months

I think it's a bit ridiculous that people judge another because of how he or she crosses his or her legs.

eddieray•158 months

I do the man cross probably 95% the time. It feels a little more natural to me. I think it depends on the height of the chair and how you're built as to what's more comfortable. Both seem to be acceptable

Gradual transition to the "power cross"

fig.

I physically can't sit like that. muscular legs? idk. if i try that, my calf gets to my knee and then my crossed legs points straight out like it was ankle to knee anyway.

This is how I would sit if space was limited. My crossed leg does hang lower than if I were sitting in the normal ankle-knee cross and takes up less space (good for when sitting in those blasted auditorium classrooms). If enough space is present I prefer the ankle-knee cross, but can sit comfortably with my calf on my knee as well; however, I do not have my leg hanging as low as they do in that pic. That is quite uncomfortable and can lead to some ball crush-age.

Making one of the ways to cross one's legs into a taboo is the mark of a culture I can laugh at.

pathetic.

be comfortable.

This reminds me of the line from Good Morning AMerica, in which the comedian uses the phrase WOMEN IN COMFORTABLE SHOES as a stand in for lesbians.

I dont wear pointy Italian shoes.
I cross my legs however I feel like.

What about the way you put your belt into your pants?
Is that one also one of the items that 'men' do one way and women another?

Dr. 3•158 months

I do it and I learned it from Michael Corleone.

LSUAlum2001•158 months

Hell no. The junk gets in the way.

Pectus•158 months
