Two men arrested for manspreading... I had never heard of this. Not sure where this is going. What is this world coming to?

I can't help but think of that old cartoon, perhaps school house rock about need more elbow room...

You have GOT to be f--king kidding me??? Do they charge Kim Kardashian for 2 seats on a train due to the size of her ass?

Not so sure this is a worthy topic on this forum.

Probably no more worthy than other topics trending. But, I certainly would not want to be on the receiving end of this ridiculousness.

I just googled it, this is stupid and I can't believe this has become an issue of any magnitude. Are we really Turing into the Demolition Man future?

As a New Yorker, who takes the subway everyday, by the way the train in the picture is in London, not NYC, it is not a problem. You just sit next to the person, with or without saying excuse me and sit down. Rush hours most trains are packed where people are standing right up against one another, nut to butt, like on the DFAC line in Basic Training, except it's people on all sides of you, not just in front and behind.
It is just NYC's way of attempting to create more tickets and revenue.

I guess for lack of a better way to put it "ball/nut room" as some men put it. I guess guys do it on trains/ subways and take up more room than needed and its become a problem...lol

Its funny this is even an issue. I guess some people just weren't raised to be polite and curteous, the fact the authorities even have to get involved is rediculous. but ive never been in a place where this type of public transportation was needed so I guess im speaking from an outsiders perspective

I am getting ready to move to the center of Political Correctness... I hope I do not get caught up in this foolishness in reality.
