I've felt the same way myself Eupho. Some women don't prefer the grouchy, lazy, wobbly, stoopid, unambitious, fragile type that I am!blues

I am fortunate, I guess, that I don't have any stretch marks. I haven't had any children but then I know some who have and don't have stretch marks and those who haven't bore children and do have them. I think its luck of the draw in many respects, like one's genes may keep one looking younger than their years and vice versa.

My mother made sure she minimised the chances of stretch marks when having her two children, she used olive oil....... worked a treat, not a single stretchmark to this day!!

Surely, a person can look beyond something so insignificant? cheers

i disagree with your humble opinion ... according to which US women with kids who happened for some reason(e.g elastic skin, genetic or such) not to have those streach marks whatsoever are NOT a real ones. Hmmm...

None of mine came from pregnancy, although I have three kids. Mine are all from weight fluctuation. Crash dieting, and crash eating! lol!

My thoughts too.
I have known men when I was in my twenties (had my first child when I was 19), that used to make jokes and talk about how *nasty looking* stretch marks are. Always made me feel paranoid about mine. But I am sure not ALL younger guys feel that way.
Not sure how guys my age feel about it, but I would hope they would be a little more understanding. It's not like something we asked for . But again, I am sure there are some older guys that are more childish about it than some 12 yr olds would be.
But hell, some people think freckles, moles, wrinkles, anything that they feel to be *imperfection* or a *blemish*..a turn off.
To them I say....enjoy that latex love doll.

I find stretch marks from pregnacies to be somewhat attractive....they can make fun foreplay blushing

Stretch marks from being overweight, not so attractive though. Just being honest.
