ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Pregnancy fetishism

Okay kiddo, so some people really like to think about or see pregnant women, even if they're not going to be a mommy themselves. This is called "pregnancy fetishism". It's like they think pregnancy is super cool and they might even like to touch the mommy's belly or watch videos of people giving birth. But it's important to remember that just because someone has this interest, it doesn't mean they get to make a mommy uncomfortable or do something they don't want to do. We always need to ask for permission and respect people's boundaries.
