大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【跷二郎腿】的话题。
跷二郎腿，就是坐下来的时候一条腿跷起来放到另外一条腿上面。那么，为什么叫“二郎腿”呢？古代传说里面有一个人物叫做“二郎神”，一些地方的庙里面有二郎神像。二郎神的坐姿就是这样子，所以把这种坐姿叫做“跷二郎腿”。很多人都有跷二郎腿的习惯，这是为什么呢？跷二郎腿好不好呢？我们来听一下吧。
翘二郎腿是很多人都有的习惯。当坐下放松的时候，腿不自觉就翘了起来。这是为什么呢？爱翘二郎腿，不能简单粗暴地用某个科学发现来解释。不过它和身体舒服感、心理状态、习惯等都有一定关系。其实翘二郎腿和葛优瘫一样，是身体本能追求舒服姿势的表现。人是一种喜欢折腾的动物，喜欢不断变换姿势来维持肌肉的张力。翘二郎腿时能放松一条腿的肌肉群，并让腿部和足底肌肉更轻松一点。当人们坐下时，翘二郎腿可以调节中心，感觉做坐起来更稳当。另一方面，跷二郎腿能防女人走光，让男人看上去更有范。夏天穿短裙的女性坐下来后，跷二郎腿的姿势可以有效地防止走光。而颜值高的男性坐下来跷二郎腿，也会显得更有魅力。
但经常跷二郎腿其实会影响到健康，让我们腰酸背痛，并会带来脊柱侧弯的风险。翘二郎腿时，人们难免会将重心偏向一侧，导致盆骨旋转和髋关节紧张。时间一长肌肉力量不平衡，就会带来体态改变等问题。
有谣传说，二郎腿翘多会影响到生殖健康，提早出现退化性关节炎，变成o型腿，导致静脉曲张，高血压。小姐姐在这里郑重地辟谣，这其实并不是翘二郎腿会带来的危害。
那如何翘二郎腿才是正确的，危害小的呢？那就是不要长时间一直翘，翘起来腿麻了都不管不顾，直到天荒地老。腿麻了就换换腿
翘，时间久了就站起来活动活动。毕竟久坐也不利于身体健康。除此之外，只要你自己感受是舒适的，想怎么翘就可以这么翘。
