Honest question: Do guys actually care about stretch marks and loose skin?

June 28 2026

I just turned 27 and recently lost a lot of weight. While I feel pretty and confident in my overall look, the weight loss left me with a lot of stretch marks on my stomach and legs, plus some loose skin on my tummy. It’s not just a few marks; it’s quite visible. The skin situation isn’t that bad tbh, but it’s not a perfectly clear or toned stomach like most girls my age.. My ex used to make me feel terrible and disgusted by them, which completely ruined my confidence. I want to start putting myself out there and have some fun, but I am terrified of the moment a guy sees me in person. Guys, be completely honest: Do you stay clear of women with stretch marks and loose skin, do you not care, or do you find it attractive or a sign of hard work? Please be brutal but honest. I just want to know what to expect.

    First of all, congratulations on the weight loss. That takes real commitment and you should be proud! You're asking this question on a forum where maybe a handful of people will respond. Some will say they don't care, some might say they do. Does that give you any kind of meaningful picture of the world and the people in it? Not even close. What I can tell you is go out there and enjoy your new body, your sexuality, your life, your adventures. You've earned all of it. If you meet a guy who makes you feel the way your ex did, that's not a reflection of your body. That's a reflection of him. And that's your cue to run. Run as its not your type of guy. Don't let a handful of opinions, online or otherwise, shape how you feel about yourself. Find your people. They exist, and they'll make you wonder why you ever worried about this at all.

    Firstly there is absolutely zero logical reason for someone to make you feel this way. You scars/marks are proof that you’re still winning. Anyone with an aversion to skin features is in for a very long road of disappointment. We ALL have our stories etched in our scars/marks. Secondly you will find others like myself out there who absolutely adore recovered skin (Scars/Marks/Textures) never feel the need to hide them away, you may very become even more confident and comfortable than you ever imagined. Your skin will always be your truth, and beautiful. Panda 🐼

    I had my daughter when I was young and I was huuuuge...left me with stretch marks on my stomach that I have believed for decades, are disgusting. But I can tell you I have been in a room with 20 naked people and the only one worried about them is me. One thing I've learned in the last few years is that confidence is sexy and far outweighs any perceived physical imperfection. On a side note, I bet your skin feels soft as fuck!!!!!

    It is so horrible of your ex to make you feel that way. There are so many people out there that find stretch marks attractive or don’t care about them. I personally find stretch marks attractive, especially on the tummy and hips

    Love yourself and your body and everyone else will too. I personally love anything someone shares with me but the only person who's opinion matters is yours ❤️

    I'm so sorry to hear your ex did that to you! Little things like stretch marks and skin are a common part of life, very few normal people will look like super models or porn stars. To answer your question, no, it doesn't bother me at all. I've been with a few women before who did an amazing job losing weight, and my girlfriend is a mother which has its own list of impacts, none of it detracts from the experience in the slightest.
