"I confirmed that this was abnormal by admittedly feeling up another man's car's behind in the parking lot." Not going there, sorry.

There should be a somewhat flexible, >vertical plastic piece<, one each side of bumper, near tailpipe, in area which you show. Each piece goes up and under, to body of car...for slight strengthening of that area.
Note: There is no strengthening behind light, just those two pieces each side, near tailpipes.

Appears you may have aftermarket muffler, maybe those plastic pieces were left off for installment of muffler, or forgotten to be reinstalled ?

Possibly photo you show is a stock photo and not your exact vehicle ?
