This is for the men who are married with children!?

Question

does your wife have stretchmarks? and if so do they gross you out or do you find them unattractive?

Answer 1

Yes.  It looks like someone played connect the dots on her stomach with a purple sharpie.

Answer 2

My wife has them.  It doesn't bother me in the least.  They are badges of honor as far as I am concerned.  She got them by enduring pregnancy and childbirth and giving me my beautiful daughters!

If however they bothered her and she wanted a tummy tuck I'd tell her to go for it.

Answer 3

Not really, but then again hers is not that bad. The ones that look like the stomach shriveled up, gross me out (from c sections). But neither is worse than a woman with sagging b***s. That's the worse for me.

Answer 4

No, it's natural, just like aging.  Men who want women to perpetually look 18 or 21 have issues.

Answer 5

I know you said only men. But my husband actually rubs/play with my stretch marks. I hate them but he doesn't seem to mind them.

Answer 6

Yes,Yes and Yes!

Answer 7

I'm not a man, but a woman... I have stretchmarks from my pregnancy. My ex-husband despised them, found them gross, etc.

My male friends and I talk alot about how he has affected me. And they made me realize that... well, my ex is a complete idiot. Lot of men don't mind about the strech marks. If the guy made the baby with you, he shouldn't complain about them!!!

Answer 8

I know you said men but I felt I needed to respond. I am very self conscious of my stretchmarks that I have on my buttocks but my S/O loves them and says it reminds him of me being a woman and that I have had children which is s**y!

Answer 9

OK here's the deal....

No man worth being called a man is going to make a big deal out of stretchmarks, or sagging b***s, or whatever other body change you have after giving birth.

What WILL bother a man and WILL affect your relationship, is a woman who looses her grove / libido / desire because she is TOO FIXATED ON HER BODY CHANGE to relax and be the s**y, sensual gal in bed that got her into motherhood in the first place !!!

After our second child, I thought I'd go nuts because my wife's b***s deflated after the milk was gone (this did not happen with kid#1).  After awhile (like 9 months - God it took a long time...) we finally talked about it and it wasn't her body change that bugged me.  It was the fact that SHE couldn't "allow" herself to feel s**y and get into the act because she was hung-up about her body change.  This translated into her holding back, not being in the mood and only putting out as a favor to me.  Thankfully - we worked through it and the s*x is as good (if not better) than before the kids.

It almost cost us our marriage !!

If you need the surgery to feel good about yourself, then go for it.  But, I would encourage you to try and work past it with your spouse.

If women still love men and find us s**y as the belly gets bigger and the hair thins out..... its not that big a deal to look past stretchmarks.  

Answer 10

Yes.

No.

They're not a plus, but I can get over them pretty easily.
