anyone else gets annoyed ?

I was at the mall today standing in line to go to the bathroom when a lady comes next to me and starts rubbing my stomach .
I mean do people really think its okay yo touch a total strangers stomach ?
Or am I over reacting ?

I let no one but family n friends touch my belly n id be heated if any random person did that. Id have probably slapped her n cussed her out.

I wanted to smack her hand away but she caught me off guard and I was just in shock that she was rubbing my stomach.
People are just disrespectful.

Super awkward when that happens. If it's an old lady or family member is kinda okay I guess.
