You Can Be Arrested For ‘Manspreading’ In NYC Now FYI

Have you heard of manspreading? You know, it’s when men are sitting and spread their legs out. It’s what moms yell at their little girls for. You know, for sitting “unlady like” and whatnot. (And I’m going to be real here. I’d rather see a dude “manspreading” than crossing his legs like a chick any day.)

But in DeBlasio’s New York, you can totally be arrested for it. Last week, two Latino men were arrested for manspreading on a subway. They took up more seats than needed, and that warranted an arrest.

Although, according to the report, the judge said that at the time of the arrest there could not have been many passengers on the train, she nevertheless slapped the two men with an ACD, which means that charges against them will be dropped if they don't get arrested again for a fixed period of time, the report says.

So basically, manspreading is the male equivalent of purse buffering. You know, when women place their purses next to them to avoid having a stranger get too close. It happens.

But manspreading is an epidemic. We need to take down the patriarchy! In fact, Metropolitan Transit Authority spent $76,000 on a PR campaign to raise awareness and ask men to “stop the spread.”

And I’m just wondering when the men are going to come out and tell everyone to stop telling them what to do with their bodies!

First NYC libs want to regulate your drink size. Now they want to tell you how many inches away your knees should be apart while you're sitting.
