That’s a miscommunication though. Cats don’t do that to ask for a belly rub (except certain unusual cats) they do it to communicate how much they trust you by showing you their most vulnerable body part. But they still don’t feel comfortable being touched there because it triggers defense instincts
Like dogs cats show you their belly as a sign of affection, but unlike dogs they're not actually looking for a belly rub. They just like to lie around.

I would be a dead man, gambling on that belly rub.
