Leg crossing

I am always seeking ways to be better at CDing. The one thing I am having trouble with is crossing my legs. Many girls (GG and TG) simply cross their legs one over the other at the knees. For them, that is a resting point. I have tried, but I either have flexibility issues or my legs are too fat (most likely). I will say that even in elementary school sitting "indian style" was not very pleasant at all. So usually I have to resort to cross at the ankles if I want a feminine look.
Is there anyone else who has this problem? Is there something I could do to make it easier for me to be at rest crossing at the knees?

I use to cross my legs that way all the time, when younger. After gaining

pounds, it became impossible. After losing 75 lbs, I could again cross my legs.
Sitting "Indian style" has never been a problem.
I reckon, for some, some yoga type stretching would help.

Women can do that easier than we can because their legs are pinned to their pelvis further apart.. Birth canal and all... So if you are unlucky to had yours closser than average together and they aren't stick thin there is no way to cross your legs femininly.. Best we can do is keep them parrallel..
After loosing 50 pounds I don't have that problem any more but try this.. Sit on the side your right cheek, leaning to the right and lift you left cheek up off the chair and then swing your left leg over top of your right.. Then straighten your torso as much as possible.. Tuck first otherwise you might hurt something. Lol.
