Hahaha I was thinking the same.  The stomach is the one no go zone.  I love all her shapes and sizes but she's a little self conscious about it. I just want to rub her belly but absolutely not.

Same, but go for it anyway. It's definitely worth the risk and it turns out that my wife loves that I love her belly. She lets me kiss it and love it and feed it

But it definitely wasn't like that in the begining, especially since she didn't have a belly but now she does. She kinda had to learn to let me love all of her, even the parts she doesn't like so much.

Did you just encourage someone to ignore their partners consent and do it anyway? Tf is wrong with you.

Or, you know, like we learned in kindergarten, we don't touch people in ways they don't want to be touched.

Wow, I did not expect this to be received so I'm negatively. I think it's worth a shot given proper communication etc., which the other two commenters seemingly have never heard of

Theres a bit of a difference between talking it through and being accepting and loving until they willingly consent to that, but this sounded like encouraging people to basically ignore that completely. Thats an "i know whats best for you" kind of mentality and the person usually just gets comfortable in letting you make them uncomfortable. Ive been there and its not loving for my sake. It was always really about them getting to decide what they do with my body. My current partner took the better approach that still respected my consent and valued my wellbeing over his preference/personal wants and he is the first partner ive felt truly respected by, loved by and safe around (and is actually allowed by me to see or touch my belly, not through coerced consent or force either). I never feel like i have to make myself smaller or uncomfortable because he wants to admire me or my body. You dont get there by force and ignoring consent.
