Why do girls always hold their stomachs? Honest question FYI im a girl?
This is probably a weird question but I notice this happens a lot. Being a girl myself I find myself involuntarily touching my stomach when i speak or sit down sometimes. Its not just me I notice that sometimes female singers will hold their stomachs when they sing and even my female friends don't his involuntarily too. So is it an instinct or is it just an involuntary habit some people pick up? This is an honest question and I appreciate your answers thank you.

I do this wayyy often.
I always thought it was because I was born with deformed ribs on the left side (Above the stomach) and naturally wanted to cradle it.
Walking, speaking, and especially singing. It just feels like a need. Almost involuntarily.

I have the habit myself. I've always seen it as an insecurity. I find myself doing it alot when i'm talking, like i'm covering my stomach or something.
