"I'm a man and I find crossing my legs perfectly comfortably"

Your thighs are probably fairly small, leaving space for your nutsack.

"LOL you say it's uncomfortable to pretend you have big balls"

You've never seen a testicle larger than a raisin.
My strategy is to fork people.

I sometimes sit with my knees bent 90-degrees and my ankles crossed, but the closest i get to crossing my legs is ankle-on-knee because otherwise i crush my nuts.

Sit with your legs crossed as long as your doing something masculine at the same time.

Actually theres a number of great reasons to go for the manly 90° cross.

Obviously the first of these is the simple fact that you really don't want to cook your balls. In fact, the testes need to maintain a temperature a couple degrees lower than body temperature (37° celsius). High heat can cause sub-par sperm health and even infertility if it's maintained for extended periods of time (this happens to sufferers of cryptorchidism, otherwise known as an undescended testicle). Elevated testicle temperature can also cause a large decrease in the levels of man juice your testes can produce. By man juice, I mean testosterone of course. Testosterone is responsible for all those perks of being a man: bulging muscles, gritty facial hair, and a large amount of your mental and physical energy.

Fig 1: A man suffering from low levels of testosterone. Wonder why?

To maintain your manliness, the male body produces up to ten times as much testosterone as the female body. Even a 10% dip, or raise in a womans case, can send you down an ugly road.

Maintaning a proper 90° cross allows ample airflow to your manly bits, preventing any embarrassing gender confusion spurred by low sex hormones.

Another nasty side effect of crossing your legs is an increased chance of developing varicose veins. Varicose veins are tangled, enlarged veins in the legs, that show up as visible bluish bumps on and around the lower leg. Ever give your grandma a sponge bath? You know exactly what I'm talking about.

These unsightly veiny mountains are caused by the failure of valves inside veins that prevent blood from running backwards because of gravity. Blood then collects in the veins, eventually swelling them into disgusting bubbles of bloody fun.

What does this have to do with crossing your legs? Everything. Crossing them tightly puts pressure on the surface veins, increasing the odds of valve failure, and we all know what that means.

Fig 4: what that means.
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

Keeping ones legs relaxed and negating the effects of gravity as much as possible, much like one might do while crossing ones leg at a 90 degree angle, serves to greatly decrease the odds of developing these unsightly blood bags.

Finally, crossing your legs knee to knee makes you look like a girl. No really. It's been an age old lesson in girls school's that should any young lady wish to not appear whorish and poor, they are to cross they're legs. Search "crossed legs" in google images right now. Do it. Know what, I'll link it for you. Do you see a single man leg anywhere on that page? I rest my case.

Fig 5: hot. Notice the distinct lack of a penis.

Crossing legs knee to knee is bad for any man's health as well as image. I am, have been, and always will be a supporter of the 90° cross for the comfort and safety it provides.

Please read that again and again and think twice if you still want to cross ur leg the "girly" way. Comfortable or not, the "girly" way is wrong for mans because it's not healthy at all. You're comfortable with it only because you got used to it.
Don't get me wrong, it's like smoking a cig, after a while you don't feel the pain at all, but it's been proven that it's not healthy either.
Much like wearing tight pants instead of underpants.

Everything in bold has been proven false, excluding the part that assumes you need airflow to your genitals (Do you avoid swimming to prevent testicular suffocation?).

Bulging veins are caused by pregnancy, body-building, and on occasion: standing too much. Varicose veins are hereditary and not caused by lack of bloodflow (despite what a user on Yahoo Answers might have said. [He couldn't provide sources, either.])

Unlike your blind argument, I've provided sources.

I used to care about it when I was 14 or so and more insecure than I am today. These days I dont remember, nor care what I do.
