Have you ever touched a pregnant stranger's belly?

I had a complete stranger basically feel up my belly yesterday. She asked if she could touch it and I said yes, but she ran her hands all over it. It was so weird.

I just can't imagine touching a perfect stranger's belly whether I asked for permission or not. I can't even imagine asking a stranger for permission to touch their belly. I'm not a very touchy-feely person, though.

    I don't even like touching most people. Forget strangers!

    Hell no.  I wouldn't touch my BFF's belly when she asked me to, so there's no way I'd touch a stranger.

    No but it's one of those things that I think is weird that people get upset about.

    I wasn't upset per se, but I was a bit taken aback that she was so into it. She was very enthusiastic.
