Joanne Freeman: Today’s rando NYC thing: Someone came up to me while I was sitting in the park and asked me how I twisted my legs like this, because Stephanie Ruhle on MSNBC did the same thing & he couldn’t figure it out. And I’ll be danged, he was right. NYC, man.

I can do this too. I always thought it was a bit weird. Not generally that flexible or mobile haha.

I'm born female and I *cannot* do that. My teen daughter and her dad can though! Another sign I'm getting less and less flexible, I suppose

Garudasana! www.yogajournal.com/poses/eagle-...

Eagle Posewww.yogajournal.com You need strength, flexibility, and endurance, and unwavering concentration for Eagle Pose or Garudasana. Here's how to do the pose right.

Don’t know and I have a mostly metal leg. ?

My hypothesis: It has to do with pelvic structure. Men's pelvises are generally narrower, so thighs can't cross over as acutely. Therefore, foot won't reach behind the calf.

I am not a medical professional but I think you are correct. Something men can't do... so we badly compensate by manspreading. Sorry

But, some men can.. ..

Then They are very talented and should be revered

💯!!

I'm a woman. I'm pretty flexible. I couldn't do this to save my life.

Interesting. It’s comfortable for me. I do it without thinking. Bodies are so danged interesting.

Yeah! I mean, it's not like I didn't see adult women do this as a child and TRIED. For a while, I thought my legs were too fat to do it until I lost weight and learned that nope, I just don't fold that way at any size.

Yup. Not all pelvises the same. And hip angles are going to vary as well.

Just tell em you have flexible bones.
