It looks like something from a SJW dystopia.
It does actually... though being an actual poll of apparently real people, it manages to avoid actually being that.

Still I find it both funny and strangely dark that the male one for partner has that yellow everywhere except the arms and upper body. It's like they're all secretly never truly comfortable even with their partners but will take the secret to their graves xD

Right, because then there's no ambiguity...

Seriously, do people not just lay on the couch anymore with one partner laying their head in the other's lap while getting their head scratched? Really weird that people would have those kinds of boundaries with their partner.

I really hope that's not the actual reason because that's super-duper silly and kinda reinforces a `men only think about sex` mentality. I mean, I know my boyfriend doesn't immediately leap to `is it sex times now??` when I, for instance, poke him in the belly.
I do think it's strange that the partner one doesn't have more green on it, but I can't really think why.
I guess my sarcasm wasn't clear enough. :/
My response was also tongue in cheek but with another followup comment about how weird it is that men are in the yellow with their partner.

So women are very uncomfortable with their female friends touching the hem of their skirt?
Obviously it's the edge of the natural cone shape all females apparently possess.

But really I'm wondering wtf that's actually supposed to represent.
Well if we assume the black area in "Aunt" is the genital region, I guess that line is a stripe across the pelvis. But it looks ridiculous because it's been stretched to accommodate the triangular shape of the dress, and disproportionate because dresses generally extend past the genitals.

They should have stuck with the regular body ones and not done the bizarre restroom symbol people. But yes, comparing it to the more reasonable human body ones below that seems right.

Alright SJWs, you have enough material to flood this topic from here to Timbuktu :D

This chart makes some sense but I am not really a touchy person, while in some countries, it's a big part of the culture

Seems fairly accurate, if needlessly over complicated. I'm confused as to why skirts are included in the diagram. None of the women I know wear skirts.

My chart for random strangers looks like this:



Don't fucking touch me.

Yeah but the more hostile you are about it the more I think you've got something to hide and then I just want to do it more.

Are you scared of being touched in case someone finds your Harrison Ford photo album?

Aw man, there I was not thinking about it and suddenly you've dragged me into thinking about it. This is a weird time to pull some reverse psychology on us. I'm assuming here that by "don't do it" you really mean "Definitely do it".

Are we related?

I joke, of course.
Oh. :(

Okay, I'm being slightly hyperbolic, too, but I don't like to be touched by most people, period. PTSD intensifies this desire.

OT: as others have pointed out, this has nothing to do with where you can and can't touch someone, it's an aggregate of where people are okay being touched and not okay being touched, and there's nothing wrong with that. Friend or stranger, I don't want to be touching people where they don't want to be touched. Most of the time, I don't want to be touching people, period.

I can see no issues arising from this.

*takes notes*

Dresses...extend...beyond...genitals....

It makes so much sense now. I'm learning so much!

I know strangers don't feel as awkward about strangers touching their hands, but I think the MAJOR point of ambiguity is what they're OK with their hands being touched with. I'm pretty sure a sturdy handshake is less awkward than the hardy plunking of one's genitals into said stranger's unsuspecting hands... I mean, the former is all green for me but the latter is blackest black. Though, if they've just sneezed into their hand then the former also turns black.

Again, though, who the hell did they survey for men? In what world are men who shake hands all the time less comfortable with their hands being touched? Did they perform this survey in some kind of puritanical don't date seminar for the men's section?
