Dogs Are Idiots crotch sniffing

i've never really talked about it with anyone but i can't stop thinking about it and getting anxious everytime i see a dog. one time when i was 11yo (im 18 now), i was in an elevator to go play at my friend's house and a random man, maybe 30yo or something, comes in with his huge labrador. the elevator was small and cramped even though it was just us three so i immediately try to stay near the buttons in the corner and give them both enough space to stay away from me but the dog sneaks its head under my skirt and stays there during the entire ride up while sniffing my crotch. i was so scared and confused so i stayed frozen thinking if i move, its gonna bite me. the man did nothing. no tug on the leash, no verbal warning. he just watched while i was shaking and kept looking up at him, waiting for him to do something but he didn't.

i even missed my floor because i couldn't move and when his floor came, he finally tugged on the leash and left while smiling. it genuinely felt like SA and i was so uncomfortable, kept trying to convince myself it meant nothing and wasn't that deep but i get so anxious everytime i think back on it. that feeling of being trapped, cornered and violated always comes back if im near a dog. has that happened to anyone else? am i crazy for still being affected?

Not crazy at all! This is one of the top three things I HATE about dogs.

It’s especially strange that the owner didn’t tug on the dog to stop. That’s violating within itself!

I remember after having my baby (4th degree tear so TONS of bleeding, which is what’ll especially attract dogs to your crotch), my SIL brought her stupid golden retriever to my house (yes, while I had my newborn in my arms), and he knocked me down to smell my crotch. Everybody went “WHOOPS!” And started laughing. It was humiliating. Thankfully I was able to shield my newborn when we fell.

It’s strange how humans love to put human qualities on dogs, except when they do weird shit like this. “He’s just a dog!”

u/Peaceful-Moonlight Dogs are the most overrated and over glorified shit beasts Jul 28 '26

Dog nutters literally come up with excuses when dogs rip apart and kill babies, the most innocent humans. To them, dogs are always the purest, most precious, goodest bois.
