I'm a pre-everything femme transboy, and though I'd LOVE for my body to become a "male" body at anytime, I really don't know much about the different *surgeries* yet, and I don't know if I want *them* either. But well, here's (Kinda silly?) the deal; I love crossing my legs. While sitting, sleeping, everything. And as I don't have a penis and have never really "observed" any people with.. penises, I guess, doing these things, I don't really know if you can still comfortably do them if you have a penis? Because no matter what I'm doing that's like my leg-position of choice. So, can anyone tell me if that's a thing I'd still be able to do if I decided to.. "get" a penis constructed? (I really don't know how to put this, I'm so sorry...) Thanks in advance~
Yes you can, a lot of people do it Personally I can even double cross my legs which is supposed to be a sign of being MtF(I still don't know).
You can, but it's not always comfortable. It's the testicles that are the problem though, not the actual penis, and since you won't actually get any real testicles, I don't think it would be an issue for you.
It is when you cross your legs, and you take the foot of the leg that is over the other one, and it goes under the calf the one below. I don't know if it's true about the trans thing, but most men can't do that.
I can double cross my legs. Kind of hard now I'm getting older but my anatomy doesn't get in the way too much.
Men do cross their legs one over the other like women do. I think it's mostly societal when men refuse to sit like this, however there is some merit to the fact that the wider feminine hip create an angle that makes sitting with your legs crossed more agreeable. But to answer your question no a penis does not get in the way.
As an owner of a penis I can say it is my default way to sit, lol. No discomfort really, maybe depends on the individual anatomy?
I double cross my legs. My guy friends ask how in the actual hell I'm doing it. I don't know. You tell me. I also have somewhat wide hips for a male bodied individual, so I think you're good.
Honestly, I can't get my legs into the position. Like, not even close. I'm not sure it's so much about the penis and testicles so much as it's just my legs. I can't even manage to get my knees together sitting with legs parallel. I'm kind of just physically wide in general, and the more I try to scrunch in and get my knees together, the more uncomfortable I am. Like I have to pop out my hips or something just to get my knees together.
many males, cross their legs by putting the ankle on the opposite knee. rather than crossing knee on knee. anatomy is a big factor in this, but societal influences are big too. i remember crossing my legs knee on knee in grade 6 and the whole class, including the teacher had a great laugh at my expense, never did that again.
I can do it comfortably enough if I tuck everything underneath my legs. Can't quite double cross them now in any comfortable way, though I think I might have been able to when I was younger. EDIT: Tried it now. I can, but it's really uncomfortable.
