Yeah, I am the person you quoted and your comment about a compliment from a close friend or spouse is so true. Really, if I were pregnant and with my closest friends and someone said my body looked good, I'd be fine and say thank you. It's just the fact that from OP's post it sounds like it was said in front of husbands who then started weighing in on how sexy pg women are. I don't think I'm that puritanical for not wanting my friend's dh commenting on my body but could be me. |
It's weird and creepy to objectify people and then discuss it in a group setting put down the porn and touch some grass.. learn social skills. |
Np You are horrible pp. I am sorry your own mother had to get pregnant and have someone so vile as you. "Fat like a pig" to a pregnant woman carrying life is unbelievable and so misogynistic. |
| Yeah but weird to tell a pregnant woman this to her face in front of other people. |
It's not puritanical, it's simply wrong for them to be commenting on your body. The friends DH should have known better...just tacky. |
| Some dudes like weird sh8t so yeah i can believe some do. but most normal guys don't. |
PP has some boundaries issues and immaturity. PP you keep those thoughts to yourself, and respect others. It's not your business to comment on someones body. Most of us aren't ruled by biology because we have a brain. PP you need some sort of filter as well if you have problems controlling your thoughts. |
Being attracted to pregnant women is neither weird sh8t nor weird shit. It's fairly normal, given biological urges. I think it's creepy as hell OP's friend's DH was talking about it at dinner in front of a pregnant woman. Btw, OP, where was your pregnant friend's DH/BF? |
Seriously. And the women? If my friend's dh called me sexy, pregnant or otherwise, his wife and my other friends would be like UHHHHH |

This is OP. It was not weird and people are so ridiculous trying to turn it into something more.. And the pregnant woman’s husband was right with the group. It was not a conversation about her body. It was an observation that (by another female) that she looked good. My friend was flattered. Her husband said, I said the same thing - “she looks great pregnant!”. Others chimed in and agreed.
And then the conversation evolved into what makes pregnant women attractive to some men. I brought it here bc I was curious if I would get different responses than a polite group of boundary respecting friends. And clearly people have lots of opinions and thoughts… |
Oh. That seems more reasonable. Your "hot mama" comment made it seem like people were perving out |
| I got hit on/cat called more than once when I was very visibly pregnant. All Latino men. I was amused by it, but yeah definitely something a little creepy about it too lol. |

I think many pregnant women have a clear pregnancy “glow.” ✨
They are likely eating healthy, exercising regularly as well as taking those huge horse pill sized prenatal vitamins. Plus they are typically under-40 so not too old. |

I will say what no one else is saying
98% of the time it a clear statement of “I have sex” and that by itself is a big turn on for a lot of men. |

Guy here. The answer is yes for many guys, especially in the later first and second trimesters.
Personal anecdote. We are good friends with our neighbors. The wife is very average looking (we all are, not a knock). A while back I started noticing that she just seemed prettier. A month of two after that they told us she was pregnant. It was an ah-ha moment. |
