Don't touch . It's mine

I am not talking about my clothes or a book or anything like that. And I am not talking from a child's perspective either. I am talking about my body. DONT TOUCH IT'S MINE! I hope it's clear to all the people out there. My body is my personal space. I don't want anyone touching it. I have been very possessive or rather protective about my body. I have had the sense of this belonging that my body belongs to me and exclusively to me since I was quite young. I vividly remember three incidents in which I have asserted that my body is not for any Tom, Dick or Harry to touch and feel. It has always stirred up a feeling of immense anger in me and led up to behaviour deemed as irrational by the people around me. But for me it was the most natural and instinctive way to behave.
