Branding his actions as 'inconsiderate', the disgruntled woman narrated how she was left with barely any legroom due to his intrusion into her space. Yet, some on Reddit suggested that she might be judging the man too harshly, pointing out he's likely unaware of his 'manspreading' given that he's asleep.
In a detailed post, she expressed: "My mother was a legitimate pre-boarder on a recent flight. I accompanied her to help manage baggage and get her settled. We sat in the bulkhead so she could have more space for her braced knee.

In a message to all men, she made an appeal for them to cultivate better self-awareness and to "check their ego", stating: "Women go out of their way to make others around them more comfortable and not take up literal and metaphorical space.
You absolutely do not need the extra space." Responses to her tale varied, with one commentator saying: "I've seen plenty of men and women take more than their fair share of space on a plane. Everyone is capable of being inconsiderate.
You are not the main character." Another said: "You have the armrest up, lay in your bed." A third user voiced their perspective, saying: "Fair to be annoyed by this.
Fair to ask, expect him to comply, and feel you shouldn't have to ask. I'd probably wake him up. But how's he being egotistical while asleep?" While another chimed in: "Girl, if you don't repeatedly and passive-aggressively start stepping and kicking his foot away.
