Sitting manners : - • the first lady of good manners- talks about the art of sitting gracefully. Her advice: a woman should never cross her legs or sit with legs wide open. The perfect pose is a cross between sitting in an easy yet dignified pose. When sitting in a formal meeting or party, men/women should sit with an erect posture and with poise. • Do: Sit erect in the middle of the chair with legs in a 90 degree with a gap of 6-7 inches between one's feet or slightly sideways in the corner of a sofa.
First, we've got the non-crossed-legs positions. It's either the knees close together or spread out. The legs themselves are 2-10 inches apart – and it's not comfortable and isn't recommended for how men should sit. • This position doesn't necessarily “hide” your manhood – but the thighs still put pressure on it. That's why it's natural for grown men NOT to keep their knees close together while seated. If you ever tried it, you'd catch yourself feeling tight and wanting to spread your legs. • Science points out that sitting with the knees together is physiologically easier for women. The female pelvis has an overall greater width than its male counterpart. And the angle of the female femoral neck isn't as large as the male one.
