Back in the day (yes, another
) children were taught at home to rise when adults entered or left the room, to give up seats to women and other adults, and a few other things. I can recall a kid who I knew did all those things at home but forgot to do the giving up his seat thing on the subway. Daddy's dope slap nearly knocked him into the next car.
Nowadays it's more important to teach kids which bowl in the school nurse's office has the condoms and how to put one on a banana.
stay safe.

(did I use that right?) having manners and being courteous in public was a generally expect way to exist. That is no longer the case.
The issue with 'manspreading' is the 'man' part. I wouldn't have as much an issue with a law that made hogging space on public transportation illegal. I would support laws that made having bags and luggage that impeded movement within the vehicles illegal, because, in addition to being rude, it is a public safety hazard.
The issue with 'manspreading' is that it is not about taking up too much space. It's about "privledge" and "oppressing womyn" which is just total bullshit.
