Actually, I doubt we'd sit at all. I'm looking at my parrot, and she has knees that bend backwards. She just bends her knees on her perch, and when she sleeps she lifts one leg up and tucks it under herself. I think we'd have a modified perch instead of a chair, and "sit" by getting into a reverse crouching position, just like a bird.

It'd be a stool. Otherwise we'd crack em back and sit as we do now, like in that alien movie charlie sheen was in with the big satelite dish and stuff.

the same. You'd just sit in it backwards.

My brain hurts from your question. I guess you'd have to look between your legs.
