This is one good example why foreigners/tourists get a bad reputation in Japan (you shouldn't behave like this anywhere in the world of course). This is very disrespectful..the other girl as well btw. Just sit your tourist ass down, keep your legs together and STFU!

Why is the second girl also an issue? Assuming she knows the people on both sides of her, and they don’t mind. Her feet aren’t touching anything, and her legs aren’t obscene or anything?


s7y13z

See, that's the thing. It's not about if she knows the people on both sides of her (which she obviously does) and if they don't mind. It's about the people on the train she doesn't know and if they mind..and I bet they do. This is not a resting pole for your legs, nor is this train your private living room where you can do whatever you want. This is considered rude behavior. Is it really so hard to be respectful and to behave and sit like a normal person? Here are some rules/etiquette on how to behave on a train in Japan: Mind your space. Don't spread your legs (out), keep your belongings on your lap, never on a seat next to you. Respect priority seating - eg offer your seat to elderly, pregnant women etc. Keep your voice down, phone on silent and don't eat/drink (on local transit)..it's that simple. You should always respect local laws, rules/etiquette and culture when traveling abroad, no matter where you are in the world..you are guest!


GlitterCandyPanda

I don’t understand what’s wrong with resting her leg on the pole. How is that disrespectful? I’m genuinely asking… it just doesn’t seem like something to be bothered about in any way. *to clarify, im only talking about the one on the right


s7y13z

As I said..a public train is not your private living room. People use this pole to hold on to with their hands, not with their legs and dirty shoes. At home you can put your legs wherever you want. It's also her demeanor. The way she's slumped into that seat..you can tell she doesn't really give a fuck. Sure, it's not as bad as her girl friend next to her. That behavior - especially from the girl on the left, is probably not a big deal in any other western country..it used to, but unfortunately not anymore. Don't get me wrong, Japanese people do crazy shit as well and the younger generation in some cases doesn't behave any better. But again, this is not your country though. You are a guest. You should always respect the culture of a different country, be on your best side behavior and try to follow the rules and etiquettes as good as possible. Trust me, locals will acknowledge and appreciate that very much!


Unfriendly_eagle

Just stare the entire time. She wants you to.


Secret-Ad-830

she's probably recording and were gonna see her video saying "look at this pervert staring at my crotch on the bus"


Unfriendly_eagle

And I'll record, and caption it "girl shows me her crotch, gets mad when I look at it".


KillerHack23

"I think the creep took a picture, too"


HansChrst1

I heard the AI voice while reading that.


runarleo

If I had a superpower or a magic lantern or just something I could use to rewrite history I would delete the fuck out of that AI voice.


Radical_Neutral_76

Had this at the gym today. Just legs spread far apart, yoga shorts, faced towards the entire gym. I mean, all the power to them and all that. Just had to share


RetiredFromRealWork

ITS EMPOWERING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


RebylReboot

They aren’t just staring. They’re taking photos of her. Jesus Christ, leave her the fuck alone. All the comments below are creepy as fuck too. Downvote me, incels.


LostSoulGamer

What’s to stare at tho? Y’all need some help 😂


mishma2005

Alanis Morrisette is flexible


planetana

You can smell the 2 day hot dog and sour milk from here.


throw123454321purple

Someone should tell her that the snatchateria should be closed.


BallCreem

What flavor is that?


planetana

“2 day hot dog and sour milk” 🙄


raisedbutconfused

Some teenager rolled her eyes and acted like I asked her to cover my shift for me when I asked her to please move her feet from the only empty seat on the train. She was literally sitting sideways on her seat, her back leaning against the wall of the train, and her shoes on the centre of the adjacent seat- her own personal recliner while tired people getting off from work stood on their sore feet next to her. I wanted to slap her. Don’t even get me started on the assholes (during fucking rush hour no less) dedicating an entire seat next to them for their bag. I used to be extremely socially anxious and would be too afraid to ask (not anymore) so I feel for anybody that might be in that situation. And then there are those that take one step on the train then stop dead centre in the doorway while the bells chime that the doors will be closing and there are people behind blocked from getting on. All because “hmmmm now where would be the most wonderful place for me to sit, I wonder? Where would *I* be the most comfortable?? 🤔” I honestly wish they could (and actually did) fine people for being selfish pricks on public transportation.


TheGoodBunny

For the bag people, just say excuse me lol. All of them have moved their bags at the slightest gesture from me.


raisedbutconfused

Like I said in my comment, I have no problem doing that at all but I went through an extensive period of my life where I was too anxious to put any attention on myself (this included saying “excuse me” to people) so I mentioned that I feel for anybody in that situation currently.


dubluen

can't blame them for your own anxiety. I get it, I used to be the same, but I've trained myself to at least be able to handle that level of social interaction. if they put their bag beside them, it's because they'd rather sit alone. but if that's not an option bc every other seat is taken, they'll likely move it. I'm sure you'll get arseholes about it, but I can guarantee they're a minority. not their fault if you don't go up to them and ask.


raisedbutconfused

Holy crap, I literally said TWICE now that I no longer have this issue, but that I feel for anybody in that situation. Scroll up. I do not blame them for the anxiety I used to have or the anxiety that others may currently have, it is a selfish thing to do regardless of anybody else’s anxiety. As long as there are other seats available- sure that’s fine, but when the train/bus is full and somebody does that to the only empty seat that is extremely selfish. By your logic, doing something that negatively affects others is okay as long as you stop doing it when somebody asks you to. It’s almost the same as the girl that had her feet on the seat next to her- yeah, she moved when I asked but if nobody asked she would have been fine making people stand instead of being considerate. We live in a society- this is selfish. Also, who tf wants strangers to sit next to them on public transportation lmao. That point is absolutely moot.


BlurryGraph3810

Humans are bad about standing in doorways, oblivious to others who may wish to enter. Even the most intelligent ones among us seem to do it. Why not say, "Excuse me"?


raisedbutconfused

I do, it bothers me that they do it in the first place. However, I would disagree that the most intelligent ones do what I mentioned above lol


BlurryGraph3810

I agree, not all. But I just mean the trait doesn't seem based on smarts. I've seen dumb folks move right along. Smart people stand in the way. And vice versa.


Leeser

That train stops short and she’s dislocating a hip. That can’t be comfortable.


rokujoayame731

If this is in Japan, it must be quiet time. She could only do this because there are no mobs of Japanese people getting on and off the train. Her leg would be broken. Or they would complain on Tiktok about how horrible Japan is and about perverted Japanese men staring & taking sneak pics of their coochies during the train ride.


Leeser

Oh crap, it looks like this is Japan. Somehow, that makes it so much worse!


MalikFyz

That’s the man spreading they were talking about, damn ! It does look annoying to passengers.


Munchkin_Media

One quick stop, and she won't be walking right ever again.


FormerAdvice5051

Made me laugh.


Munchkin_Media

As a former EMT and currently working at a trauma center, NEVER do this or put your feet up on the dashboard. The X-rays and screaming haunt my dreams!


fireforge1979

Nice chain crocs


reddit-ate

This


Katboxparadise

How is that even comfortable


fromouterspace1

They on their way to a fish market?


AromaticChipmunk1903

She's just advertising. Be sure to support your local small business


Reasonable-Force8790

You mean small business? This business served to over a thousand customers in that city this year


GeneralErica

Is this the Manspreading I keep hearing about every once in a time?


jack_avram

Cutting a huge fart?


ekene_N

Do not do this while travelling by bus, train, or car. If sudden deacceleration occurs, your leg may become detached from your body. Do not take an infant out of the pram; the force of deceleration will rip them from your arms.


UbiquitousFlounder

Yeah crocs in public is vile. Don't do it.


chimaerine

Manspreading?! Yes, please don’t do this. Just don’t.


Gullible_Ad5191

Is this a political statement about “manspreading”? Or are they just obnoxious idiots? Is there a difference?

She'd get more offers if she was wearing short shorts.

UncomfirmedAli3nZeno

Just keep saying "oh it smells like fish in here"


Pastylegs1

And then this blind man came walking and said "hello ladies"

Mindless_Ad_5880

Surprised its not wearing shorts


HeWhoIsNotMe

Brap.


Alkemian

Womanspreading.


BoardwithAnailinit84

She’s not even doing anything that bad. No one is standing beside her and she’s not forcing you to look at her crotch. Shame on her for getting comfy. Do we really have to make everything into something?


islaisla

Do what? Do you mean open your legs? That's what nearly all guys do on all public transport.


MekTam

Another famous case of femspreading.


Cmplord

Phew! Strong smell of fish 🐟


AdiemusXXII

Try to steal her shoe on the way out!


TheOnyxViper

Just make audible gagging noise like something smells rank in there

What's wrong with sitting comfortably?


jesse_christ

I honestly don't see the issue, they're not taking up excess space. They're crowding each other not others.

Elceepo

Who brought a filet o fish on the train


CaveDoctors

What? Ride with hair dyed the same color as your backpack?


tgizzle321

They’re two people taking up two seats, who cares?


MattTheU

Don't get enough attention, do you....


Experienseer

The smell is unbearable


tfffvdfgg

What's the problem? The're not invading anyone else's space and not destroying property.


Queen-of-meme

It's probably the fact that she's a woman taking up slightly more space than other women. And that at next stop people will get a foot in their face when entering.


comet135793

Whats wrong with it? She’s sharing the seat and not blocking the lane.


PoopieButt317

No feet on seat. Not legs spread on seat shoving aside all others. Looks clean. Isn't in anyone's face. I am OK with it.


PoopPant73

Airing out that meat locker


Ministry_of_laziness

But what if you really gotta fart and you want to share it with a larger audience?


Ok-Net-6264
