Why do humans think it’s okay to comment on others body?

I am a prude. Before anyone tries to accuse me of anything, I never wear revealing clothing because I’m autistic and only feel comfortable when my clothes are baggy.

Anyway, I was leaving the gym earlier and had this man cat call me because of my “fat” buttocks.

I understand to modern Americans a big butt is attractive, but I get this comment a lot and I don’t understand why they think it’s appropriate to tell me. 😞 I can’t even say it’s only men. I’ve had a woman coworker comment too.

I think my history of áń0rexiä might make me extra sensitive to this. I’m heavier than I have been in years and it makes me want to die.

No, no no no no. It's not a bad thing or an insult. Please, please don't take it that way and go into another spiral. Please?

Look, here's why a big butt appeals to some people. It's indicative of a large pelvic area, which would in turn indicate the ability to bear children. As to why people think it's appropriate to tell random strangers that they have a nice аss, that's on them, not you. Their mothers never taught them how to treat a woman. And I have to say as a man, I'm embarrassed that there are so many men out there who think they're being smooth and smexy by shouting out crass remarks at random people. I think that I would get myself in legal trouble if I ever witnessed it happening.
