While the rationale behind manspreading is perfectly valid, to single this problem onto men is just plain ridiculous. This has nothing to do with gender, it's simply a matter of public etiquette. If a girl spreads her legs out while the bus is jam packed with people, people would be pretty pissed too.
Do not listen to any feminist suggestions. Instead, every man and human should simply stick to this guide:
1) When the bus/metro capacity is under 25%, spread your legs as you so desire
2) When the bus/metro capacity is 25-75%, generally spreading is fine as people have other seats to choose from
3) When the bus/metro capacity is over 75%, it's best to play it safe and tuck your legs because people will likely want to sit in the adjacent seat

Me: You know what misses me off so much? When people leg spread on the bus. There was this guy who freakin' blocked two seats with his legs on the bus. Like, I ain't gonna complain about that if the bus was half empty, but the bus was full and there was an old lady who wanted to sit down but the guy was too busy on his phone to notice her.
Her: Don't you mean manspreading?
Me: No, I mean leg spreading.

The biological need to have your testicular temperature lower than 25 ºC for male fertility. This temperature in required for the process of sperm development, or spermatogenesis, to proceed normally. The testicular blood supply is also specialized to help maintain a lower scrotal temperature.
"STILL, MANSPREADING IS WRONG"
But that's why we have our testicles out of our body and not inside...
"WHAT ABOUT IT, CIS-GENDERED WHITE MALE"

The act of sitting down so as to not smash one's testicles uncomfortably between ones thighs. Often found offensive by women that are either ignorant of the male anatomy, live in a fantasy world where everyone has a vagina and unicorns are real, or simply want to castrate the opposite sex out of pure, unadulterated, hate-filled sexism. In either case it's a term used in bigotry.

Something the buzzfeed YouTube channel doesn't know the definition of. Also commonly overexaggerated by third-wave feminists.they say things like "oh,you don't need 24 inches between your knees!no.we don't.we need only around 3-5 .usually that's to the very edge of OUR SEAT.as in,it doesn't go ON YOURS.like the borders of the seat are a box,the legs usually don't go out of that box.
(In video) Look!there are only 5 or so people on this subway train and he is lying down!that only leaves around 5-7 seats for the rest of us! Manspreading misogynistic shit!

The ordinary position men take whenever they it down in order to NOT crush their genetalia to utter stew.
The name was created by Third-Wave-Feminazis who think they're better than everyone and everything but are really just retarded and need to be taken to the nearest Insane asylum as soon as possible, because the presence of these humpback whales-... Feminists is cancerous to everyone who can think straight (unlike them)

Humpback-whale(aka the typical Feminist): Oh my gosh, I saw a man manspreading on the bus and I was like Oh my god! That misogynistic bottom feeding pig! Later I went on a bus manspreading for 4 minutes straight. Hopefully I pissed some men off, because that's the sole purpose of why I was manspreading. Like OMG I feel like a serial killer now!
