    Women get stretch marks from numerous things... and we would hope a guy would look past them. So it wouldnt and shouldnt be any different if the Man has stretch marks.

    Most people understand stretch marks and for women that have had kids we have no room to judge anyone else who has them. Either way if its weight, kids, or just nature its not a big deal. It is usually a bigger deal to you than anyone else. I know this is true for me at least.

    Maybe I'm shallow.. but I'll be honest and say I find them to be a turn off. Not attractive at all.

    Definitely doesn't bother me. I had stretch marks develop during puberty, before I became overweight or pregnant or any of the things that typically cause them. I accept them as part of life, on myself and on anyone else.

    I've heard it often said... "stretch marks are battle scars"... I couldn't agree more... they are proof to the world of where you were and where you are now. So no, they don't matter.

    ^^Agree.

    Doesn't matter. If anything it makes you more approachable knowing you are 'real' like the rest of us.

    I have this thing where I sort of like them... a lot of times guys get stretch marks from building muscle too. Some of the ... darker skinned :) athletes I've been with in the past have had them... and I am totally totally ok with it. I'm pretty sure they're not even that noticeable on white guys! haha

    When my boyfriend was ~23, he went from being downright bony to VERY filled out in a short period of time. (Late bloomer... bless his heart) He has some marks in various places as a result. Honestly, I never even notice them anymore. I adore him. What should something like that matter?

    I'm really glad you asked this question. I have stretch marks on my stomach from when I was really overweight (33% body fat! YIKES!!) But this is good to know that they don't matter.

    Not that it matters, I'm married, but it's still nice to know that they don't matter to the general public.

    This is pretty close to the bottom of the list of things that matter to me about a man.

    i was also very over weight i have them in my back and dark and my belly and little on my shoulders but it think the shoulder
    is because my muscle are getting bigger
    but me as a guy idk i dont think it bothers me if a female has it

    I am MORE curious to know how much they matter to you guys when WE have them. I have lost a lot of weight. I am getting pretty hot. But I am SERIOUSLY stressing about the stretchmarks on my upper belly that will never go away. I want real honesty here........
