Does crossing your legs give you spider veins?

there is no one reason that you get spider veins. the trait is passed down through your genes and is usually more common in people with light skin or who are overweight. BUT when you cross your legs you are putting more pressure on your capillaries which can be a contributing factor as to why you get spider veins. so just to be on the safe side, switch off which leg is crossed on top and give 'em a break for a few minutes each hour. =D
