It's ok to assume one is pregnant if it encourages to be polite (to give a seat, open doors, etc) but if it's used to control and humiliate like in this example... Makes me MAD.

Just a reminder that you don't need to be pregnant to do this

That is disgusting, even when they’re pregnant they still have personal space! They should have two persons worth in fact!

I had a few people do this but always chalked it up to the fact that I was the size of an aircraft carrier. I got enormous, but in my defense I did have twins. I did once actually ask if someone wanted to touch my stomach, but only because it was someone I worked with and I was talking about how much they were moving and I could feel each one separately. The look on this guys face was sheer amazement. I asked if he wanted to feel, he said "Can I? Really?". So I let him. The smile that lit his face was worth it. You'd have thought I'd given him a million dollars. But I never let anyone simply walk up to me and touch me.

Can i have one too? I'm not pregnant

hahahahaha....this is perfect.

Why do people think it's ok to feel pregnant people's bellies without asking first? My last pregnancy my Mother-in-law started feeling my belly without asking and I was not happy. I like my personal space so if someone asked it was totally fine to touch. Would it be ok if I walk up to someone touched they're belly and asked when they're having their next bowel movement? Repect the personal space and ask b4 you touch.

My daughter (from England) moved to the USA to marry and eventually have our Grandson. I went over to help her with a difficult pregnancy and was HORRIFIED at the number of people (complete strangers) who would just walk up to her and touch her bump!!! What the holy Hell is this????? How rude. This never happens in the UK. Wish I'd have thought of this - great idea.

A friend of mine got pregnant about 10 years ago, and before then, I had no idea the whole concept of randomly touching women's bellies was a Thing. How is this even remotely acceptable?

Crazily enough... I never did mind people loving the bump. I knew it wasn't about me but about a new life... New hope.. That said..I never touch anybody without strict permission. And I never ask either unless its a friend. Even then it's rare. I guess just because I don't feel the need doesn't mean that others don't. I'm not sure why I'm like that. It just doesn't bother me but I can see 100% why it bothers others. Strange way to be i guess. (Though if they are sick or anything..um no. And I never handed my baby to strangers either. Germs..negative energy.. Who knows. Im the one that will have to deal with it though. Not them. )

It'd be such a shame if she never used it...

We should make a kid's version for when people try to make them hug & kiss them... when they don't want to or haven't even been asked. (Besides which this can "groom" them for pedophiles.)

PERFECT!

That spray bottle will come in handy a few weeks after the baby is born too! Both to spray away unwanted strangers and if you have a natural V birth! (If you have gone through this, you know how great that water spray feels!)

I don't touch people period. So this horrifies me.

I think I would prefer a ruler or something similar 🤔 (guess what kind of school I went to)

I’m not even pregnant and I want - scratch that, need - this!

Honestly it is a work of art, so you have to give the man credit.

I just thought it was common sense to ask first?

I believe I was about 7 months pregnant when I was finally really showing and decided to post a cute pic showing off my bump in a tank top I was openly engaged and even if I wasn’t this wouldn’t be okay. But this creeper guy I didn’t know commented how he really wanted to rub my belly because he used to for his wife and how beautiful I was and how much he loved pregnant bellies. Needless to say my fiancé was totally on the defense and I was totally creeped out.

Now that is a good man!

Ew

I think pregnant people should be allowed to slap anyone who tries to touch their belly without consent.

Wow, when this trend start happening? There was a time when no one would even dare think of doing such a thing! Not even the hubby!

Haaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Tell them dinner and a movie first...then maybe they touchy.

People are so rude these days

i should have made this when my mom was pragnet with my brother

When I was pregnant if someone tried touching my belly they would have unleashed my inner beast and been so-so sorry. I hate people touching me and with pregnancy hormones they may not have lived. I don't get why people think that's acceptable.

Ughhh, personal space! It seems like people think that's an acceptable thing to do, even though they don't know the person.

Ugh, I used to hate people standing near me when I was pregnant 😬

oh lol I love it! thankfully, I never did have that problem. maybe people were scared of me cos I was so quiet!

Yay!I have never been pregnant but always respected a woman's space...but you just want to touch...

Meme Worth

AWESOME

Excellent. KUZCOOOO!!!!!! 😄

That man's a f*****g legend.

I have a Tshirt like this

MINE

What do people expect by touching anyone's belly? A hi 5 from the baby?

People disregard personal space it doesn’t matter if you’re paralyzed or pregnant your space is still going to get invaded 🤣

this will be me in the future if I have children

ew why they touching u any way😦

Why would you even touch it without permission? You can't really feel the baby anyway unless it's kicking

Ima print me soma deez
