Are You Insecure About Stretch Marks & Why?

Question

I have stretch marks.... everywhere and they range from skin colored to bright red. The ones I hate the most are on my belly. My man sayd he doesn't care but Im still insecure. What do y'all think?

Answer

I used to hate mine, because the majority of them are from a depressing stage in my life. I used to weigh 180kgs, I now weigh 58kgs. So I have them on my arms, legs, bum, boobs, and my back - the one place I never got them was my belly.
But after having my children I finally got them on my belly and they tell the story that I've carried two healthy babies, I'm a mother. My two babies are what made me love my stretch marks. I've grown to make them, I may not have grown to make all the other ones / but those marks tell me I've grown into a healthier person. And for me to accomplish both those makes me love my body ten times more.

Answer

I don't really like finding new ones, but I never felt like they were ugly. They're natural and beautiful. You should embrace your body and love it.

Answer

No, because my body is a tapestry of where I’ve been. I was big and then small and small and then big. I have scars and blemishes, tattoos and all sorts of marks that show me everyone I’ve ever been. I may not be that person anymore, but it was still me at a time. I don’t hate them because I don’t regret who I’ve been because of who I’m becoming.

Answer

I don't care, neither does my fiance. We both think they look like sick ass lightning tattoos and that helps me feel more secure about my body 😄

Answer

I’m still young and I’m one of the bigger girls in the grade. Since I’m one of the only girls who are big enough to have stretch makes kids at school are kinda judgmental even though a lot of my stretch marks is from muscle

Answer

Stretch marks are so fucking beautiful. They’re like proof that you’ve grown and they’re completely healthy and normal. Plus, guys actually really like them :)

Answer

I think I would feel proud if I had some because of having a kid. But no, it's from fast growth spirts as a kid.

Answer

I hate mine. 
& I can’t even say they’re pregnancy related. 
I don’t have many thank god but the ones I do have are on the part of my body I hate the most - probably why I hate that body part also why I hate my stretch marks that much because they make me feel worse about that area. 
They’re on my thighs. 
I don’t have any more than that so I know I’m lucky, but I’m pretty insecure about my body anyway. 
Actually tell a lie, I have just one on my belly button - which is so totally random. 😂
That one doesn’t bother me, and that is through pregnancy!
