Sitting legs crossed

[sketchytom]

^^ I cannot physically get my legs in that position.

I will sit with my feet crossed though if the mood takes me.

I think as I have short legs I can't do it.

are you one of these trolls by any chance ..... they cant cross their legs

If I'm sitting with my legs under a desk I go knee on knee.

Anywhere else its ankle to ankle / ankle to knee.

I find them all equally comfortable.

I always sit with a leg crossed. Not sure why. I read somewhere when I was in my teens that Keats was characterised in his milieu by his sitting leg-crossed posture, and was often ridiculed for it. I think that little factoid buried itself somewhere deep in my subconscious mind. Not that I ape Keats, or anything like that. I just always thought it was odd that a man could be defined and remembered in a small way by something so arbitrary.

Knee on knee... Is that as gay as I'm imagining it to be? Like, sitting with your legs positioned in a upside down V shape...

I sit cross-legged quite often. It's a little odd at first, but you soon get used to the squishing and it almost becomes therapeutic. I can even squeeze my legs crossed and it doesn't hurt.

Tried it a couple times but just ended up crunching myself. Never again.

Pretty funny that two posts ago I mentioned the famous crossed-leg pose of Keats... and then a user called Keates comes along

I have to pull my balls out on top of my legs if I want to sit like that.

Same, except I don't really have any preference as to where I do it. I actually find I do them all with even thinking.

Think of it like spooning one of your knees with the underside of the other.

Sit how you want, no one should care.

I can't sit like that, my legs don't want to stay there. If I relax it all falls apart.

Also excellent trolling kwerk, dropping the bit about the tranny earlier followed by this was a masterstroke.

Kwerk is the puppet master behind the OcUK masses, playing his wicked games.

It squishes my balls if I try that. Feels far too unnatural for me.

Same here, i always sit with my leg at 90 degrees

 

[Craterloads]

A few days ago I noticed I was sitting with my legs crossed like this picture. Now every time I sit I subconsciously do it. I don't even know why? I think it's just one of those things that happens as you get older? I dont even care how gay it looks.

For any old people on here - at what age did you notice yourself sitting like this?

Are you not like 15? feel for you if that isnt the case

 

[lucy_bee]

Turns out, with a bit of internet meandering, theres a niche market out there of people who have a fetish for women who can double cross their legs.

It's funny how many people admit to this on anonymous boards. Seems loads of people do it but won't admit to it for some reason.

 

[G-MAN2004]

Surely I'm not the only one to see Ian McKellen in the OP?

 

[Pestilence]

In all of Zefan's pictures, Pierce Brosnan looks THE most uncomfortable sitting like that. Like he doesn't naturally do it.

I naturally sit with left ankle on right knee, or both feet on ground, scrotum nicely resting on the seat between.


EDIT: Also, that watch is hideous for Brosnan's wrist. Doesn't suit the form at all.

I'm not sure he's even really doing it, I just chucked it in there for kicks.

Maybe that's the reason. It's like... "What IS he doing with his legs, poor chap?"
