    Crossing my legs like that crushes my balls.

    Weird - my balls are in a scrotum that moves, so if I want to cross my legs my nuts don't actually have to be crushed in between them. Your balls are static?

    Does it?

    Body language and how you carry yourself in public can send different messages to different people.

    One person will look at a guy crossing his legs like that and automatically think "that's kinda gay/female looking" while another will look and not notice anything unusual. It doesn't mean that either person is right or wrong. That way of sitting has generally been regarded as something a woman or gay man would most likely do so you can't really blame someone for seeing it that way.

    How many straight guys do you see walking around with their hands on their hips and pouting like female catwalk models?

    Zero.
    fair enough but my post was just me being a fool:D

    Northsiders and southsiders, culchies and jakeens, guys that cross their legs or not. United Ireland alright :rolleyes:


    By the way, who cares.

    As long as you don't cross the legs, twisting one behind the other

    I sometimes take a piss backwards,like, bend the schong around and back into the pot and piss between your legs.

    great fun, so it is.

    The quality of After Hours threads is going downhill rapidly...

    Ah, but I find a decline in the quality of replies to be directly proportional...

    I can't say that I have ever been bothered by a guy crossing his legs, because I don't think I ever noticed it before.

    But maybe I will from now on :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 266 ✭✭THall04


    If he's openly gay....a very camp sort of fellow ....then its OK....it's probably just an expression of his inner femininity.

    However a straight fella.......legs tightly crossed....crossed leg twitching...is probably having a sneeky hands free ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,305 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    One of societies big questions here. We are at a crossroads in our future. Masculinity is in serious danger.

    Or maybe not.

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    'Tis a guilty pleasure of mine, but I have to admit sometimes I am conscious on whether to do it or not. I probably perfer the hand in pants laid back position but sometimes when the mood strikes I cross them.

    But also this. Who gives a toss?

    I woke up at 5am with a major pisshorn, tried to bend it into the bowl, no joy so I just lay across the toilet seat....at one point I stretched out my arms and yelled, "Superman"!!!

    Crossing my legs like that crushes my balls. Thats reason enough not to do it.

    From what I've seen, it's mainly been guys in skinny jeans crossing their legs. So they must have crushed testes already.

    Seriously. Who cares.

    Oh for god sake! I have crossed my legs for years, when crossing, one thigh lifts the balls comfortable over the other thigh, very comfy and no pain, ever!

    A friend of mine brought this up last week saying 'I never crossed my legs much untill a few weeks ago when i discovered how to do it'.

    Lol its does nothing to your balls, ever!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 24,167 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Maybe crossing them doesn't, but I maintain the skinny jeans argument. They just do not look comfortable and lack.. space.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,311 ✭✭✭Procasinator


    It doesn't really matter, but it does tend to look a bit effeminate. A girl sitting with legs apart (besides in some scenarios :D ) often looks a bit masculine too.

    Each to their own though.

    Seriously. Who cares.

    Having been duped by a gay man and used as his "beard" on and off for a time, I care. I care now probably over-much for signs a man might be gay so I don't become attracted to one. That photo to me says the man is gay and its not just the crossing of the legs, though the posture is the main thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,408 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    I cross my legs but only in the manly way, ya know the way where one leg forms a makeshift table so you can rest the paper on it? That way.
    None of that flopping one leg over the other sissyness, I'm a man for Christ sake.

    Good for you! :rolleyes:

    IF the legs are crossed right up at thigh level, then it's feminine.
    If the legs are crossed so that one ankle is resting across the knew, then it's neutral.
    If the legs are wrapped around a women's head and then tightly crossed at both ankles, then it's definitely masculine.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 813 ✭✭✭wiger toods


    this is a funny topic. i would usually do the ankle to knee thing, but im 6'6 tall and sometimes i will get the dodgy back pain, so i would be forced to sit the 'quere way' when that kicks in. never in public though, only at home.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,419 ✭✭✭✭jokettle


    I've been told that regularly crossing your legs at the knee/thigh level can lead to/exacerbate varicose veins. I have no idea if that's medically viable, but I'm training myself to cross at ankles only. That way I'll look all dainty and ladylike, with veins that won't look weird.


  • Moderators, Regional North East Moderators Posts: 12,744 Mod ✭✭✭✭cournioni


    I find that it hurts the aul testicles. Therefore, not cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭el oh el
