I have a breast pump for sale, so knew I might have some weird responses but this really did confuse me.

Man called whilst I was in the Drs surgery sounded very professional in his approach like he worked in a call centre. My immediate thought was that he was going to try and persuade me to advertise elsewhere. In fact he wanted to know how big the bit you put your boob into is as his wife is very large chested. I said sorry can you call back in an hour or so when I'm home & I'll take a look at the box for you.

He phoned back precisely an hour later and spoke to me for a further 15 minutes about the size of his wife's boobs, areoles, how she'd been intimidated by a man in a waiting room & didn't want to BF in public anymore. He kept on about how big her boobs were, asked me how big mine were Confused apologised when I wasn't keen to answer!!! I gave him advice to pass on about how to use the pump, reassured him that all the instructions were included & gave him details of some local BF support groups and said he could have a microwave steriliser FOC.

He wanted to come & collect it after work, said that he worked nearby & would be about 6. Thanked me for all my help, then said he would text me for my address. I knew I'd never hear from him again before I put the phone down. WTF??!!!

Well, obviously he's completely perving over the thought of breastfeeding (95% likely?) or he's an over-invested New Man/New Daddy type who is very keen to take an equal share in everything, including breastfeeding pumps (5% likely) and was trying to show he genuinely had a bf partner and wasn't a pervert, hence the detail.

I personally wouldn't give him your address even if he unlikely rings up again. (erring on the side of caution and all). Tell him it's been promised to someone else and end the call quickly.

A bit odd for a man to be making that call I would have thought - even a new age one. Some guys do get off on lactating women so maybe that was his fetish... in any event you didn’t give out your address so I doubt you’re going to encounter him again.

AnalUnicorn · 21/06/2018 22:28

Yes, guaranteed perv.

Eurgh.

Scummy tosser.

Graphista · 21/06/2018 22:33

It is a fetish. People will perv over anything!

Have to say I find it VERY odd that people are far too willing to give their address to sell/give stuff away. You've no idea who you're taking to.

Either post it or arrange to meet in a safe public place wherever possible.

But he was telling me all about his new baby!! Euuuuuuuuwwwwwwwwwww!!! Didn't give any info out. So fucking brazen.

So if I can't sell my perfectly good breast pump because of weird fetishists (I may have made that word up??!) what can I do with it??

Looking back, really you were too kind to carry on the conversation when he asked how big your boobs were.

No man in their right mind would ask that of a stranger without expecting it to sound pervy and knowing it sounds pervy.

I binned mine to be honest OP and it was a very good make too. I considered trying to sell it, but with the minefield that is contamination/infection/sterilisation especially where new borns and old milk are concerned, I just didn't want the worry.

calamariqueen · 21/06/2018 22:46

I think he asked several times if it was suitable for larger ladies because of his wife's enormous boobs rather than asking me if I had big norks straight off... Ffs. Can't believe I talked for so long Envy

calamariqueen · 21/06/2018 22:49

Lol just remembered he asked me if I thought he'd be able to use it on his wife while the baby fed on the other side. Thought that sounds awkward- in the context of a pervSadEnvySad

Laughing at this. Poor you!! Grin some right weirdos out there

Oldraver · 21/06/2018 22:53

In fact he wanted to know how big the bit you put your boob into is

I dont think he was planning on putting a boob in there

Ellie56 · 21/06/2018 23:02

Grin Grin

Oh come on! You can’t be that naive OP?

LankinMcElf · 21/06/2018 23:05

Omg! Ffs! Are you totally baby brained?!
You have just made a pervs day!

SundayGirls · 21/06/2018 23:08

OP - there IS no baby. Probably no partner either. He's invented both (probably) just to hear a women talk about big boobs and lactating whilst he gets involved Envy < not envy.

lineyturner · 21/06/2018 23:09

I sold mine on eBay. No discussion required!

Littleredboat · 21/06/2018 23:13

Well yuHUH.

Lactation is a surprisingly common fetish. Just like pregnancy itself.

I bet you've made his day OP.

Do t be sad you've made a perv happy.

But on a serious note at least he doesn't have your address.

littlemisscomper · 21/06/2018 23:26

When I was a teenage babysitter I had a call late in the evening from some guy, supposedly looking for a part time nanny for his children. He went on to tell me all about his wife's corset making business and how he was sure she could supply me with one, and all this. I was young and naive so didn't hang up straight away as I should have with hindsight. Creep.

You know what's really scary? These perverted weirdos have got a mum out there somewhere, they used to be innocent children - at what point in there lives did they turn from sweet little boy to disgusting slimeball?

Mrsramsayscat · 21/06/2018 23:31

Littlemiss, I would like to know that too. Horrid experience, OP.
