    What do women think of mens stretchmarks

    Just wondering what women honestly think of mens stretchmarks(ie. the ones lads get from weight training )?Its not very common in men compared to women, so whats the general concensus amongst women when it comes to this?

    I'm pretty sure women get stretch marks just in different places. Like around the gut . As far as my stretch marks, women think they're hot.

    I don't see why they'd care?

    It's just as relevant as asking women "what do you think of my haircut"

    The guys I usually go for always have them from the fast growth. Most commonly in the under arm area. I don't mind them at all.

    I just never actually bothered to stop and think about it.I mean, most women who have stretch marks usually complain about them and say they hate them etc.etc., so I was curious as to what they thought of men with them.ie.do they consider them as bad on a man as they do if theyre critical of their own.Im not lookin to make people uncomfortable or anything because ive got my own sm's and they dont bother me.

    Don't really think about them at all... it certainly wouldn't bother me.

    Almost all women care more about their appearance than guys do (hence makeup, taking hours to get dressed ), so that's prob why they'd care more about them.

    and you're not makin' me feel uncomfortable, Celts. I have 'em, and i could care less

    I was about 20 or 21 when I saw my first stretch mark under my arm. I got out of the shower, went to put on deoderent and bam, there it was. Not that I am now or ever was some huge monster but I remember feeling a sense of accomplishment knowing that I was growing. That was about 8 years ago and they have only gotten worse. I don't think anyone has ever said anything about them but then again, I dont go around sticking my pits in peoples face.

    I have stretch marks all over the place, after:

    1) Gaining over 40 (solid) pounds when I was 18.

    2) Becoming a fat bastard when I was 20.

    Although the scars remains, the marks eventually lose their purple and reddish color. No one really notices, and no one really cares.

    I've had some pretty fast growth in the past, but I've never had a stretch mark. Maybe I have really elastic skin or something.

    Usually it seems to be with the use of AS... that type of fast growth. But I suppose it could be in natural growth too.

    Yes.

    Of course, it doesn't happen as often as it does with steroids. I guess that's because everyone has reached the "genetic potential" at 180 pounds and natural. Oh, until that amazing discovery: food! And - shudder the thought - training each bodypart several times per week.

    Don't worry. Every stick can "clean bulk" his bony ass from a lean and tight 150 to a massive 160; then do a cycle to make up for what God screwed him out of.

    Women have been getting in on the fun, too!

    I have them all over my biceps from when I was ~19, the others came later. They are mostly skin colored so they are harder to see than when they were fresh.

    I don't think women really think too much about stretch marks...as long as the arms are over 17" and he can lift a house.
