Lol, Dragon.Poor guy.There was a sixty year old sister in my former cong. that looked seven months pregnant. Skinny little arms and legs and a watermelon for a belly(but she was very sweet, mind you--I mean no offense with the description).
Good policy, Freedom. I was preggos five times, and let me tell ya, after the first, ignorance on the part of others was bliss.People who come across a pregnant woman often forget that there is a woman attached to the abdomen. I swear, they start talking to you like you are five or something, as if being gravid dissolves all of your brain cells and renders you incapable of an intelligent conversation.Sure, those hormones kick in sometimes, but for the most part,not much changes in the gray matter.Luckily, I could hide it pretty well until I was about seven months along.
I absolutely hated having my stomach touched and being asked "Oh when are you due?"My pat response was "Never. It's never coming out."
So your policy not only prevents foot-in-mouth disease, it also helps out women who are so tired of not being able to see their feet, they would rather talk about any other subject under the sun.Believe me, most women who want to discuss their impending joy will bring the subject up themselves
