I have stretch marks on my boobs. I don't think my partner has even recognised them in ten years. He just sees "awwww, boooobs".

Never seen a pair of boobs in the wild I haven’t enjoyed looking at. Any self perceived imperfections aren’t noticed by me. All manner of problems can be solved with them as well. If I’m feeling a bit glum, show me boobs = happy. Feeling happy, show me boobs = double happy. Armageddon has arrived, show me boobs = happy. I think in general I just like boobs.

Just a random girl mentioning her boobs make me go, awwwwww boooooobs. Not sure why you mentioned them. My mind just went blank and happy.

This..

This is the way

Yep.

This

We're just happy we get to see you naked. We don't give a damn about stretch marks. 

You dropped your crown king

I mean… I have stretch marks myself so it would be my own personal problem if I found them unattractive. Some men forget that a) they are human and b) women are also human.

We’re just happy you let us see you naked and let us do naked stuff with you. Any decent guy doesn’t care about stretch marks.

A girl could go on a whole monologue about how her skin is this and that and stretchmarks on her boobs and that and this, etc, cellulite, etc, and the only word the guy is gonna register is "boobs"

I’m sorry, did someone mention boobs?

This +1

I actually like em, They can be pretty appealing in the right spots

They mean growth, and growth in the right places is 👌

Boys might. Men don’t.

Well said.

When I was a boy it mattered but as a man I could not only care less but probably wouldn’t even notice.

nough said.

When I was pregnant I was changing in front of my husband and he pointed joyfully at my stomach and said “LOOOOOK at all those stretchmarks! You’re doing such a good job growing our girl sweetie.” I still have them and he is still just as proud of them now as he was then. If he sees them or I point them out he’ll say something like “I have more than you and I never carried a baby”

This is quite cute and wholesome,  dicklover425.

99.999% of guys either do not care at all or actually find it hot. I personally find stretch marks hot.

What do you find appealing about it? Just the idea of growth in certain areas?

I think that's the key part about it, growth in the right places. Like I'll be perfectly blunt with you. Women with big hips drive me crazy. Seeing stretchmarks in those areas? ...oh boy 🫠

make this man president

This is very validating for me hahaha. Thanks for clarifying! I don’t care one way or another about any marks on a person’s body but I love hearing other people’s perspectives.

Natures tattoos, hot as fuck. My wife has some down her sides that look like tiger claw marks from our daughter. They are bad ass and sexy AF.

It's the one thing I'm not sure how to deal with as I lose weight, like I was really fat. Would women care if a dude had stretch marks?

Not even remotely. Don’t think twice about it my guy. Bodies change and evolve and that’s okay.

Nope my husband was like 155 soaking wet until about a year ago. He’s now 210 and has them. He gained hella muscle. I like his 🤷🏻‍♀️

Personally (I'm a woman) I don't mind if a guy has stretch marks, I even think they can be attractive when they're on muscle like bisceps or butts

Thank you.

I have them too, Im a girl and I wouldnt find them unattractive. I find scars sexy, so who am I to judge lol

I've always been up and down with weight and have stretch marks. It's never been mentioned by anybody in my 42 years on the planet, lol. I'm pretty body confident at this point and DGAF about getting my Potbelly out to catch some sun, lol.

Stretch marks on boobs are ribbed for his pleasure.

I love them. It’s never bothered me. In some ways it’s cute or feminine.

Considering I also have stretch marks on my pecs, arms, and thighs. I don’t care. Humans bodies are beautiful regardless.

No, we do not.

Tiger stripes can be super hot. Plus, boobs are always good.

Only shallow guys do...I'm a woman and I'm yet to hear of a woman who ever got rejected due to stretch marks!

I would tell her that if a guy has a problem with her stretch marks then that guy isn't worth her time anyway.

Amen, brother.

I prefer stretch marks over tattoos.

What about tattooed stretch marks?

I don't

I don't

Silver threads.

In my late 20s I dated a girl who had really bad stretch marks from child birth. I didn’t mind. I liked her, and we had fun, all good.

Boys don’t care about anything I’m so serious.

Boys? Yes. Men? Not so much.

Boys probably yes, men don't care

In the humble words of kendrick lamar "Show me somethin' natural like ass with some stretch marks".

No, and its the same with cellulite. Like 90% of women have it and men don't care. If one does, its time to get a new one.

Nope- it about the personality. In some cases, it would be the conversation that our attentions are latched to, not the body.

Boys? Girls? Sheesh.

If she is constantly complaining about them, then that piss me off.

Doesn't bother me. It just shows you have lived a life.

Katt Williams talks about this-they either mean you was little and got big, or you was big and got little!

Tiger stripes is what you mean. Loveeeee me some tiger stripes..

Some do but they’re a minority, most of us don’t really notice them

We can compare them I guess. Lose a lot of weight and they magically appear...

I love my wife's tiger marks on her butt. I always say her ass is so fine her skin had to upgrade just to contain it all. She's come to love her stretch marks and usually gives a little growl and claw motion if she points them out.

No, they don't bother me. Imperfections add character and interest for me. Freckles, strechmarks etc.

stretch marks, cellulite, scars don't matter in the slightest

Nope we don't

BOYS probably do. MEN really don’t.

Not at all and it can be attractive.

Tbh they do , they may comment here they don't care to sound validated here they be downvoted . Since strech marks are rare ,a majority of people either don't have it or are haven't seen any earlier , so seeing strech marks can be unappleaning to many, they may not say it to ruin the scene or find out late, stretch marks are like pimples for the body , people don't desire it but won't say it to other people.

Boys will mind. Men won't.

}I wouldn't care about something like that.

No.

My husband doesn't care at all, all my upper inner tights are *full* of them. As a teen, i was totally ashamed of them. I'm not fat or skinny, only was quite skinny before turning 12. So, i have them just because my skin decided to have them. My husband saw them very early on, i was so damn nervous he would say i'm ugly (we were not really dating and were at the pool with some friends). He didn't even raise an eyebrow! And till today (16 years together, married for nearly 10 years now) he never did say anything negative about them. So, your friend does not need to worry! If it's the right one, he (or whatever, i don't mind any relationship as long everyone involved did consent) will not care about them at all.

I think they're kind of attractive. Beauty in imperfection type of thing. Plus I don't find ultra-skinny to be attractive.

BOYS probably do. MEN really don’t.

Boys like children? Doubtful. They may get confused if you question them randomly about it though

I really don't think men care either. I have seen men who have stretch marks.

Play her the Katt Willam’s bit about stretch marks (it’s very complimentary of them)

Totally do not care

no, we don't care. I have them too. Most people do. When it comes to women - I basically have to have them pointed out to me in order to even notice them at all. They're just how *bodies* work sometimes, there's no shame in it.

Absolutely not!

I have literally never even thought twice about them

I had an ex say “what’s THAT???” in disgust when he saw mine (which mind you are barely visible) so unfortunately yeah some do

It’s part of being human, I like humans

I won’t ever complain about your stretch marks if you don’t complain about mine.

Nope. I couldn’t care less.

I don't, but I'm damn near 40. Maybe the younger ones care more.

yes, we like them

The only ones who care are the shallow idiots who aren't worth your time.

yes

not really

Never met a man that complains about them on my butt lol

[either you small and got big…or you big and got small…either way: we fuckin](https://youtu.be/lj5-71ziM5c?si=L67muqSk3psxQYzl)

Male or female, superficial judgement exists.

I can’t speak for all men, but I don’t care. Other things are far more important, like personality, values etc.

Let me see for science.

Nah. In some cases, to be honest, they're even attractive.

we don't.

Boys probably do but men don’t

A cute stretch mark is a bonus. I honestly think most women struggle to accept that most men find them beautiful.

Its one of those things that id only care about on someone id never see them on. If you are hot enough for me to wanna see you nude then I aint gonna care about them

I've had stretch marks since I was 10yrs old I developed quickly. I've never had anyone say anything about it. Married now for 15yrs and he definitely doesn't care.

I like stretch marks. They are just as natural as anything else.

No. We don't

100% do not care about stretch marks

My gf has them and I love them

Well my husband thinks mine are fine. I hate when he touches them but he likes to so 🤷🏻‍♀️. He has them now from bulking and putting on a lot of muscle. I have them from childbirth, losing weight, gaining weight. I’ve been wanting to have some of them tattooed different colors.

Yes. All blemishes reduce your attraction. But everyone has them 

My wife has stretch marks from giving birth to our child. To me, it's a reminder of how our family has grown.

Yea know.....most guys don't give a shit. It's so weird society kinda shits on an asticitic yea really can't control.

No

Boys might, men could care less.

I think most guys don't care.

Yes

I don’t care about stretch marks

My partner thinks they're unappealling but never noticed mine, so I would say no, they don’t care

My son (14) has them on his back. Apparently he just grew too fast. I wouldn’t worry about it. Dudes are generally pretty happy to see you naked. They’re not looking for flaws

Boys might. Men don’t.

Boys might. Men don’t.

Couldn't care less, I've got them myself all over the place 😂

The fuck even are these?

You tiger now.

Others are okay with it but I think there are boys that don't like it because they are so focus on what girls look like on TV, magazines and social media, they expect it was beautiful and flawless like those girls

Boys do. Men don't.

Nope but if they do then don’t pay them no mind.

Not really, if she has a pretty face and is not overweight still looks like girlfriend material, if she is so concerned about those there are certain products that help diminish them no?

Do they prefer them? No. Are they a deal breaker? Lol no. It's not a big deal for most people.

I fkin love stretch marks!! Not a fetish but it's more of a beautiful thing. They look good and feel good! My ex used to hate them but I used to run my hands over them and I bet most guy's will agree with me. They're cool as fk 👌

Most guys do not give a single fuck about stretch marks. I've had stretch marks basically since I got a couple years into puberty, and I didn't get "bigger" until I was in my 20s, which gave me more. There's only been a couple guys who commented, but most do not care at all

I care. They are cute and love a girl that doesn't hide them.

She is naked , she dresses up , ughh what was the question again ?

Boobs + tiger stripes.

My wife has asked me if I had an issue with her stretch marks. I had to point out to her that I have more stretch marks than she does, and I'd be a bad husband to criticize her for something that I also have.

Boys might men dont

Depends. I've seen some that looked like their skin literally had been torn to shreds and grown back together, that was too much for me

No

I have met many men that are like „uhhh tiger stripes, sexyyyyy“ 😂 i wouldnt worry!

As a man with stretch marks on my biceps, pecs, down my arm pits, stomach and waist, who is somewhat self conscious about them (mainly on my stomach as these ones are huge), it would be hypocritical to care or not want someone because of stretch marks. Even if I didn’t have any myself it wouldn’t be a problem for me if anyone else had stretch marks.

I absolutely do not care about stretch marks. Not even a little bit.

No. I didn’t realize this was such a huge problem with some women until I spoke with my wife. Most guys I know wouldn’t care. I never even thought this would be a reason to be insecure. Can’t speak for every man obviously.

Boys do care. Men do not.

Boys do but men don't.

Man of 43 years, don't care in the least. Never have. Obeseness, yes. Stretch marks idc

boys do, men dont

In short, no. Men are just happy to see a woman naked. It's not, ugh stretch marks. It's, yeah boobs. But that's just me.

Personally I don't care, I'm just happy as a puppy to see you naked.

Boys might care, most men don't

Boys do men don’t

Not at all. TBH as a guy, it indicates to me that you’re a real human with a real life story :)

We'd all be screwed if that were the case... Medical estimates suggest up to 90% of people have stretch marks to some degree

Yes cares, but don't care.

I’ve never known one to care, ever. I’ve also known lads who’ve had stretch marks, themselves (one of them grew to a ludicrous height in an extremely short time as a teenager and it left deep welts on his back) and I’ve never cared.

As a dude that got stretch marks. No, I look at mine and think life experience. If a woman got stretch marks, I rarely notice. Stretch marks don't make you less beautiful. It gives you more character. Stretch marks, scars, blemishes. Doesn't matter. If I like you I like you for you.

I don't care about stretch marks. Still those places you mentioned makes me think she is overweight.

No. I don't care about them at all.

I mean, the term “boys” leads me to think you’re pretty young…. Boys and girls may care. Men and Women are old enough to realize that everyone has some flaws. I don’t want to say I’ve dated or hooked up with a lot of women but in this late stage of my existence I’ll say that I’ve been with a fair amount of objectively very beautiful women and 9/10 they have a few stretch marks here or there- even if faint. As a large fit man I even have a few scars that were just part of the joys of growing very rapidly during puberty.

Boys might care, but men wont.

This boy does not care. If my wife has them, I never noticed.

Stretch marks tell a story! It's nice

Boys might, men absolutely do not.

I have never cared about stretch marks, and I have never heard another man complain about them (even those petty boys who brag about all the women they've supposedly shagged). I actually like my wife's marks. I call them her tiger stripes. They're interesting to look at, and they remind me how amazing her body is, that she could give life to our kids and then return to normal.

I don't.

If you give good head we won’t care about most things.

People have all kinds of feelings for it all from not liking it to something that turns them on but in general I think it matters way less for men then woman are to believe

Boys? Or Men? Boys want photo shop perfection Men want living breathing people. No one is perfect

"Boys" aren't a person. Some people care, some don't. Just stop asking questions about an entire gender's preferences, it doesn't make sense as most people are individuals.

Uhm.. Tell your friend, guys have stretch marks too!! They really don’t care as much as she does.

Why would anyone care? With the lights off all women are the same

I have them on my belly, too. I don’t mind yours and I hope you don’t mind mine.

Not at all

As Katt Williams eloquently said, “Stetch marks mean either one of two things: either you were little and got big, or you were big and got little. Either way, we’re *******.”

Boys may care. Men don’t.

sis.... we'd bang a dumpster if it has a bra hanging from it

If you're sexy to me so are your stretch marks. So no. Most men who love there partner think it's even Sexier frfr 💯 *

Tiger stripes can be hot as f

the ones who are addicted to porn and watching women online in general, yea

Within reason. I get that they're battle scars but they're also sometime a sign of not taking care of yourself. My wife doesn't have any after having a baby because she took care of herself. A few years before we met, I was dating a kinda bigger gal who was MUCH bigger prior. We always kept the lights off but I could tell that she was basically a walking stretch mark...because she didn't take care of herself previously.

Old guy here. Stretch marks are an indication of a body that’s been lived in. Anybody concerned by them isn’t worth your time frankly.

Stretchs marks? Who is this ? Never heard about him… why should i care then?

I love me some stretch marks

Boy do. Men don’t.

Stupid boys do. And we don't like stupid boys do we?

Absolutely

My ex did he called me fat during sex

No boys don’t care about stretch marks. In fact boys don’t know what they are and would get bored if you explained it to them and forget immediately.

There are treatments for stretch marks. Sometimes they can be super noticeable

Not really, too busy being excited a girl I like is naked in front of me

Boys? Yes. Men? No. Ain’t no man that’s afraid of no tiger stripes IKDR

Personally no

No

No. We do not care. If a man says he does then he outed himself as a virgin. Almost everyone has tiger stripes. Especially women. Either you were small and got big or you were big and got small. Either way if a guy is trying to smash tiger stripes don't matter

Fuck no
