Crossing my legs when I sit

i usually put my feet on the chair but in public i cross my legs at the knee

 

I kind of fold myself into positions that are much more comfortable than they look.

 

I sit how a guy usually does(foot on knee). I've tried it how females do and it gets uncomfortable fast. I think my legs are too big for it, lol.

 

I'm the same as Maddy but I've been doing it since I was a kid as well.

 

If I'm slouched in a chair/on the train, I generally cross my legs at the feet (i.e. 1 foot over the other). I can't recall a time where I crossed my legs at the knee, though (but that's got nothing to do with the fact that it's considered (by most) feminine. Moreso because I don't find it comfortable! )

 

I don't cross my legs at all. Sometimes they'll sorta be crossed at like the ankle when I have them stretched out, but that's it.

 

I know what you mean. Sometimes when I cross my legs my jumbo thighs start weighing in .

But, I find it quite comfortable other times. My legs can get pretty crazy when I sit. I just do whatever is comfortable.

I will usually do the knee/foot way more in public, just because. Though when I sit like that I usually will grab my ankle with both hands, and if I am very entergetic I sorta of rock back and forth. It looks just as gay :lol:

 

I am muscular, and for the most part, more masculine than Feminane, and I cross my legs. I think the reason alot of people assume it is a female thing is based on the fact that women would cross their legs so as to not present things one does not usually show in public.

I cross my legs because I am tall, and therefore, have long legs, meaning it is more comfortable to cross my legs when sitting in most chairs. When I am alone, most of the time I see lotus style, regardless if it is my computer chair, or my couch; my mom thinks it is because I dont vacumn my floor once a week, though it is simply because for me, that is the most comfortable position to sit for long periods of time.

 

me too. when i do sit with my legs crossed, it's often with one leg kind of wrapped around the other. so say i've got my legs crossed at the knee, i'll have my left leg from hip to knee over the right, but then from knee down tucked behind the right, so that my left foot is once again to the left of my right foot. i guess that's kind of hard to picture, but i've been told i look like a pretzel

 

I have tried crossing my legs "as a woman," and it doesn't really work. I tend to cross with my left ankle just above my right knee.

 

I'm weird.. I tend to sit in any position. It can be any position at any given time, and it doesn't usually last more than 30 seconds at a time. I was once asked how I was sitting while the topic was the question of what my gender was, and at the time, I was sitting criss-cross-applesauce on the chair. :\

 

I don't cross them at all, not that I've notcied anywyas.

 

Am I the only one who thinks that crossing them the "girl" way at the knees hurts my d**k? lol I mean it's just not comfortable in general for me, but it really hurts that area specifically. Just saying...

I hardly ever cross my legs either way though.

 

It doesn't hurt my genitals though, lol... It does place some stress on my calves though.

 

I definitely sit with my legs crossed less than the average straight girl. Of course, it depends where I'm sitting, but a lot of the time I find myself sitting like a guy.

 

Exactly.

It is possible to put stress on your genitals in that position, but there are better ways to sit in that position.

 

For awhile, back in grade school, I would often sit at my desk with one leg tucked up under the other on the seat [if that picture makes sense.] However I stopped sometime in eighth or ninth grade when some assholes were mocking the way I sat.

Since then I pretty much just keep both feet on the ground, sometimes resting one leg across and on top of the other [so oddly enough, just the opposite of what I used to do...]

 

I kind of do something in between. I cross my calf over my knee so it's more like the "girl" way but it leaves an open triangle between my legs. I usually put my hands then in that triangle cuz they get cold a lot. Probably looks really flamboyant but it's the comfiest way I've found yet. I do definetly like sitting lotus-stle though (not to sound ignorant but that's the same thing as "Indian style", right? I realize that may or may not be politically correct but that's how I was taught it in the Midwest.)
