"Created as part of her final-year project entitled “A Solution for Manspreading", Laurel also created a second chair intended for women which uses a small piece of wood in the centre of the seat to encourage female sitters to rest with her legs parted, allowing them to take up more space."
She says,"“I designed and created these chairs in order to identify and challenge problems surrounding the act of sitting that might potentially be more gender specific, such as ‘man-spreading’.”
So her solution was to force men to crunch their legs together while pinching something in there AND making a chair for women which forced them to spread their legs which is unacceptable for a man who has a good reason to give things room? WOW! And this, a final year creation project for Brighton University. It is possible that some men do spread their legs too far apart, BUT SOME LADIES DO, TOO! And men have something in there which needs room. Aren't women and men's hips created differently due to necessities of childbirth? Is this feminism gone crazy or the norm?
"As well as receiving plenty of praise for her design, Laurel’s work has been presented with the Belmond Award for emerging talent."
"As part of her prize, Laurel will be commissioned to create a product for the hotel and leisure company (who gave her the above mentioned award) and receive a £1,000 bursary."
