Manspreading is more often when dudes intentionally take up more sitting space than they clearly need in public when it's obvious there is enough space for additional people. Often it's a lack of self awareness.

I feel like doing it intentionally and doing it because you're lacking self awareness are sorta at odds

Fair enough, let's just assume most of them lack self awareness, because that makes the most sense.

There are definitely some cases where it's intentional, I've definitely experienced dudes trying to take my space on the bus by pushing into my leg that is currently existing in my chair space.
