Gentlemen, prepare to spread your balls.
It appears that we have a major turning point in the lifelong battle of manspreading vs. women, and finally it seems society is on our side.
The Chief Experience Officer of Washington DC transit was the victim of harsh backlash from the public after she shared a tweet complaining about manspreading on public trains. Sarah Meyer, a high ranking official at the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), tweeted out a photo of a man sitting on a train with his legs spread far apart on Tuesday and it did not go the way she planned.
“DC, do we really need to do a manspreading campaign on our train?! I thought we were above this,” Meyer wrote in her tweet which was accompanied by a photo of a man’s crotch. The tweet sparked wide criticism from the public who called Meyer’s photo of the unnamed man an invasion of privacy. Many comments called Meyer a “creeper,” while Daily Wire columnist Matt Walsh wrote “Why are you taking pictures of a stranger’s crotch and posting it to social media?” Good question, bearded Ben Shapiro. I was wondering the same thing.
In less than 24 hours, Meyer deleted her tweet and posted a new one apologizing for her actions.
This is a win for men everywhere. While the war for our precious ball space is far from over this was most definitely a step in the right direction. Not only do our babymakers deserve to breathe, but we should never need to worry about our junk being photographed and posted on the internet, even if we are wearing khakis. So men, let us rejoice for this glorious victory by all taking up extra seats on public transit over the next couple of days. It shall be only us, the handicap, and pregnant women carrying twins who will get to sit due to this injustice we have all just faced. March on and stay strong, my good men.
