Hey Pandas, What’s The Rudest Thing You’ve Been Asked About? (Closed)

That's as rude as asking a woman if she's pregnant because she's big.

That is sad.

And the belly rubbing thing is just creepy.

Ok my GOD PLEASE tell this to my Aunt! I swear she says that to anyone who looks mildly pregnant and I just have to hiss, "Maura!"

When will people learn to keep their mouths shut and opinions to themselves regarding pregnancy (amongst other things)? It doesn’t matter if the question is about wanting an existing pregnancy, if someone is actually pregnant or if they are planning to get pregnant. You never know what has happened in this person’s life. Maybe they would love to be pregnant but can't and may even have had countless miscarriages, or maybe they just don't want children, but don't want to have to justify themselves for not wanting to. Perhaps they ARE pregnant, but as a consequence of being raped, or as in this post, the woman is not pregnant, but has abdominal swelling due to illness.

When I was a kid I knew it was rude and I just asked the lady I’m talking to a few questions before asking if she had any kids. Usually she would tell me if she was pregnant or not. I was about 6 or 7 at the time.

Yes! That's so freaking rude.

Try answering: "Because you showed me just how boring my life could be"

This is a very popular rude question where I live, usually asked by busybody aunties/grandmas 99% of the time.

UGH! SO FREAKING ANNOYING!!!

I would explain my terminal illness, fictional with an awful sounding fake name that prevents pregnancy

Yeah when someone asks me what's in my pants I usually just tell them that it's their mom and then they shut up

Genitals are a private thing. Please tell to those people having Gender reveal parties. Pink smoke for a vag,blue smoke for a peen. Thats really gross!

It's never ok to ask that question no matter who you are

Just say “not you” (I just ignore them)

"Actually I wonder about that too, do you know? Cause I have no idea" Never got asked that, but that'd be my sincere answer. I'm most probably intersex, I've actually been told by someone from a non-profit that even without a diagnosis my experience is that of a lot of intersex people I just struggle with saying that for sure without a medical explanation to my body.

I got told to "speak Asian" the other week after I said I was Asian!

I'm half-black and when I was about 2 months old, a stranger asked my white mum what language I speak, her answer was "Double Dutch with a French accent". The stranger was like "oh wow, that's amazing, I just loooove little black babies" pinched my cheek and tried to give me a kiss. WTF??????

I am Indian, and I once, ages ago, saw this person role playing countries and all of the others sound fine, but then when this Indian country's turn, we r given the most steryotypical voice ever (if you know what I mean abt the typical 'Indian voice' given to us)

I totally believe you but it still shocks me that people act like this and say these things.

Indian as a language would be Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Mewari, kashmiri, Urdu, Afghan, Assamese, Nepali, Naga(idk if its a legit language on its own), Mizo(idk same again), Odia, Andhra, Tamil,Telugu, Malayalam, Kannad, Punjabi, and a couple others, not to mention the hybrids such as Hindi-Urdu, Punjabi-urdu, etc. Thats basically what you should tell people if they ask you to 'Speak Indian'..

One of our pastors had a pastor in training and was giving premarital courses to couples who wanted to get married. One of these couple had both parties blind. The PIT asked how they were going to do it if they couldn't see anything!!! How stupid can you be? BTW, when I was young, we had a neighbor's uncle who was blind and went skiing every winter (he had a caller with him).

This also happens to people in wheelchairs, it's disgraceful.

If your blind than how did you type this?

I had a blind literature professor while I was in college in Taiwan. He types, super fast too, on a braille + laptop hybrid machine. Not sure what it is called.

It's really strange that people keep asking about weather someone's gay or not... It's none of their business. People called me a lesbian, then bi or fake because I "switched camps again" I always told them I'm capable of loving both men and women, nothing to put a label on. You just do you and be happy, what other people think about you is so important.

Everyone thinks im gay because i wear makeup and am very ‘girly’ for a boy, im actually aroace so not actually attracted to anyone but people basically insist im gay 🙄

So sorry that you had to go through that. 🥺

Love that!!

🤣

The last sentence tho. Also, that's exactly how my parents describe trans people, it's super annoying.

Some people are just so rude, it's none of their business. You be you, whatever people think of you doesn't matter, they're ignorant fools.

He’s about fighter me mtf

What my friends have to deal with constantly =( it's difficult to listen to I can't imagine how awful being the target would be

Exactly. It's annoying when people ask.

Why did he think that was appropriate ask ???? ABKBRKSKDNF

He was really obsessed with your bosom, good thing you didn't cower down.
