In both Brazilian and American contexts, making an 'inconsiderate proposition' is viewed negatively as it violates social norms of respect and empathy. In Brazil, such behavior may be more directly called out as 'falta de respeito' (lack of respect), while in American culture it's often addressed through indirect criticism or avoidance. The term is frequently used in workplace, romantic, and social contexts to describe behavior that crosses boundaries.
