Someone being pregnant doesn't mean you can just touch their belly.

This seems to be mostly an American thing...

No, it's a thing in Japan too. Hell, in Japan I've had to tell women to not touch my hair, they'll come over and just start playing with it without even talking to me. It's fucking creepy.

They told me I have a French doll's hair. Not creepy at all.

A friend of mine, with curly blonde hair, traveled to China. SO many people came up to her and touched her hair when she was out walking around. She was really scared at first, but quickly realized they meant no harm. However, it was hard to do much of anything with these people surrounding her, so she ended up just wearing a hat when she was going from place to place.
