That's one of the main reasons I created the thread. Most pregnant women will not react even though their boundaries are being violated and they feel deeply uncomfortable. Society is still not sending the message that women have bodily autonomy. Some women don't know what to do so they tend to freeze or don an uncomfortable smile. I have seen this happen more times than I could count. The whole situation is unnecessary and easily prevented. People need to stop touching pregnant women's bumps unless invited by the woman. Same goes for children's bodily autonomy. We need to simply apply the same rules for respecting bodily autonomy to women and children as we already do for men.
