like say you like this guy and you are about to get naked and have sex.

would you think any less of him if you saw he had acne scars on his back? or stretch marks from when he was fat?

like what if acne scars were on his ass too?

what would you think in general?

I doubt girls would notice acne scars on your ass, dont worry about that.

Also, I wouldn't worry about the stretch marks, that is if you aren't fat now.

yeah it sucks i used to be 220 now im 170 and LEAN but the stretch marks remain and I cant get rid of them!

My boyfriend has a little bit of both, and it doesn't bother me in the least. It might turn me off if he were horribly scarred or something. As it is, though, scars in general are a part of life and don't bother me.

Scars in general are pretty sexy. The exceptions being acne scars and stretch marks.

there's cream sold at pharmacies/chemists which is, admittedly, for women who have recently been pregnant (as you can imagine, a swelling like a child inside your womb does cause some stretch marks) which can apparently help with them.

i have stretch marks on my lower back.. never heard a complaint from a girl... then again, i'm not a big pimp like so many other posters here clearly are and I havent been with that many girls.

like its not even that big, its just like 2 stretch marks on my hip thats only visible when I stretch the skin out

=\

i wouldnt worry.

Go to Bath and Body Works, they have awesome cream for getting rid of stretch marks. I had some from gymnastics, but they're all gone now.

I have really deep scars/marks on my back. It looks like I've been whipped; I've had to convince people who've seen my back that I'm not abused. It's because I was pwned by genetics... I have crappy connective tissue. I am also extremely limber, though.

Funny, I have that exact same problem, except I have a few from martial arts as well.

Scars and stretch marks aren't a big deal. If you had like a back covered in horrible hairy growths or something... that would be different. But it's just like dimply skin, right? I wouldn't worry about it.

I only have them visible when I shave my head. One big one near my forehead from breaking it through a window. The other 50 or so little ones from a shotgun. Girls usually like them though. Strech marks don't really matter as long as your not still fat. I've been 200+ since I was about 14 so i've never gotten them. I grew into it all i'm just generally big.

*shrug* lots of girls have stretch marks on the titties and hips and whatnot, and it wouldnt turn you off, would it? I mean, if they really care that much, you're with the wrong girl.

I wouldnt stress over it too much. Also keep in mind that most scars that arent very 3d (like stretch marks and mild-but-scarring burns) fade over a few years. I had some stretch marks around my hips when I started growing a lot (I'm a guy, btw), but they're 100% gone now, maybe 4 or 5 years later.

I know its a long time to wait, but just keep in mind that most scars fade.

pure vitamin e capsules = scar fixers.

mmm girls aren't really as shallow as boys tend to think we are. so no, they probably won't care. in fact it's probably a relief; we get stretch marks too.

Yeah, try explaining self-inflicted scars. Thats a lot harder, especially when there more then a few of them.

i've got pretty serious scaring all across my shoulders and upper back/shoulder blade area - so far the comments have been along the lines of "wow! cool! how did you get those? can i touch them?"

I havent met a girls that particularly screamish of scaring - girls are more scared of actual fresh wounding more than anything.

I have strech marks on my back even though I have never been fat and in fact have always been ridiculously skinny. It's odd.

Same here too. Very odd indeed.
