So, scars are sexy?

Yeah they are. >;-D

People usually think the scar on my forehead is dirt lol. It's small but fairly deep so unless you're inches away from it all you see is shadow.

Some are. Sometimes it is positioned to draw attention to something about a person that is attractive.

I have a scar that runs from my hairline straight down the center of my forehead to the bridge of my nose. I was 2 and had to have surgery for an extremely rare type of scleroderma that put me in the medical history books. No one has found my scar to be sexy, least of all me. I hide it behind my bangs and I do my best to never ever let anyone see it. I have been ridiculed, called scarface all the time, and I use to get beat up because of it while in school. To say that it has destroyed my self esteem is the understatement of the millennia.

My scars are absolutely not sexy at all. I'm probably going to have them removed or treated in a few months.

when i was 8 i got surgery for ulcertive colitis or I.B.D. and i have one long one running from just under my chest to just above my private zone haha and two going horizontal on each side. i thought it was gross but guys always think its cool and try to touch it. idk if its sexy but they think its interesting and its a topic starter!

When I think of scars on foreheads, I think of Harry Potter!! haha. Well scars have stories behind them and they're usually interesting.

Not sure why (and perhaps a little perverse!) but I often find myself attracted to women in casts etc.

I don't know if it's the 'needing to be looked after', or that it suggests they might actually have been doing something interesting, rather than the usual "stay in for a movie or night out on the town" type.

And for a similar thing, some scars, yes; are sexy. Even when it's just been from a surgical procedure.
But, still has to fit in with the aesthetic generally, I'm afraid.

I was just talking wiht my husband about this.....He has several scars on his head from childhood injuries...one is very large and runs most of the length of the top of his head.
For him, it is a story and a memory of the past...usually being a daredevil.

I went my entire childhood without getting one single stitch until last summer when I had a kneeboarding accident that landed me in the ER getting my head glued together. So, as a 33 year old mother of three I got my first bad-*kitten* scar. I'm thankful that we are lucky enough to have fun stories for our scars. I'm happy with my new scar right above my left eyebrow that matches my middle daughters scar on her head in the same spot from an injury she got at 2 years old. She thinks it is pretty neat that we have matching scars.

I know for some people their scars are reminders of terrible accidents so I can see the dislike for them but I think that scars are proof of making it through something hard/scary/ whatever. They are a sign of strength to me and they are a part of who you are and what you have been through. People that make fun of a person for their scars are just mean. They have no idea what the story is. Scars are like tatoos, most have a story except with a tatoo you get to choose the place and design with a scar, it choses for itself how it is going to change the way you look. I say, wear your scar with pride, it's a part of your history and who you are.

Um. Well, I think some scars can be quite cool as each one tells a story, and they add something unique to the person. I wouldn't call them sexy, but hey, it could be worse

Whilst getting my tattoo touched up today, one of the guys points at my forehead and says I love that. And I automatically knew he was talking about my scar. I can't count the number of times random guys have told me they love it, think it's sexy, even go so far as try to run their finger along it. I'm not saying it happens all the time but that scar, not my eyes, or my butt, or anything else common, is what I get the most compliments on.

I got it when I was one and my brother was chasing me and I went headfirst into a headboard, split my head open to the bone and 8 stitches later the doctor is telling my mom because I am so little that the scar would shift as I grew. It would either go up into my hairline or move down. My mom prayed for it to go up and be hidden but nope, that sucker now rests right between my eyes just at the top of my nose.

I guess I just don't get it. I know scars on a guy can be sexy as well as a badge of manliness but I just can't quite fathom why a scar on a girl is sexy, lol. I guess my mom didn't need to worry about that scar messing up my face. But I just don't get it!

If scars are so sexy, how come women are never turned on by my vasectomy scar when I show it to them?

Natural scars , War wound :bigsmile: are sexy .......Any scars from plastic surgery are not .......

I hope you mean cosmetic surgery. Plenty of plastic surgery is reconstructive, rather than cosmetic.

Yes , Cosmetic .

I hope you mean cosmetic surgery. Plenty of plastic surgery is reconstructive, rather than cosmetic.

What if someone damaged themselves so they look like another did from Birth?

Is it ok for the newly-changed person to receive surgery for 'cosmetic' reasons, but not the person that always looked like that?

I have one under my lip, on my eyebrow, my stomach and one on my leg :laugh:
