Are scars on a girl a turn off for guys?

[Anonymous]

I have a lot of scars from over the years, they aren't self harm scars, but they are from like accidentally burning myself, being extremely clumsy, and most recently 5 scars from a knee surgery that are quite prominent. Do guys mind that, or do they not care?

Everyone has scars. As long as they are normal "living life" scars, who cares?

The only time they're a problem is if they're an indication of a much more serious problem, such as self-harm/cutting or her being abused by someone else.

I have plenty of scars. I've burned myself on pizza ovens and from soldier/welding splatter, have plenty of cuts and scrapes, and most recently got a gash on my arm from a nail on a gate fence (carrying a big ladder into a backyard; didn't see the nail). Stuff happens.

Wow! I just asked if scars were a turn off for girls a little while ago. I got mine from accidently burning myself too(wood stove). I wouldn't be turned of by them sweetheart.

ouch that sucks, I got mine while ironing a shirt or something and I somehow managed to burn my self, and then there's one from when I was really little.

[BondJamesBond]

Yeah. Looks like we both have to be more careful around hot metal. They aren't big scars, but there's about 3 on each arm. Sucks that you had to have knee surgery.

[Asker]

Yea I guess we do. Are they all from getting burned? Yea but its almost back to normal so its all good.

[BondJamesBond]

Yeah they are all from getting burned by the woodstove. That's good your knee is healing what happened to it?

[Asker]

well, I'm really flexible and so I have really loose joints, and my knee kept popping out of place and it was damaging cartilage in my knee. So it was either quit playing softball and have a knee replacement by the time I'm 25 or have surgery now and still be able to play softball and fix the issue, and I chose to continue playing.

Oh, that sucks. I think you made the right choice though. My right knee can get temperamental sometimes, some punk bashed it with a piece of black top when I was ten. Hey, could you send me a friend request?

[Asker]

That sounds really painful, I'm sorry. Yea, sure

Studies have shown that even mild facial scarring didn't impact how men rated women's attractiveness.

I find it kind of cute..don't know why..

No, not really. Sometimes if there's a good story to them, they can make for a good ice breaker.
