Do you remember the social media panic over 'man spreading' or whatever? This whole thesis that men sit with their legs spread in public spaces to specifically deny women a place to sit?
It was so wild. And everyone ate it up. And if you pointed out how many women dump their bags on seats and take up 2-3 extra seats... you were a misogynist attacking hard working women who were just trying to bring their shopping home.
It can't just be that people who take up extra space are the jerks.

that was the only video that women ever appeared in to talk about that I'm fairly certain, or maybe I'm thinking about the woman that's talking about gaming and male gaming fantasies. yeah sorry about that I was thinking about this woman https://youtu.be/Q6pewZ6LWro
