Are scars a turn off for guys?

[Anonymous]

I've been wondering this for a very long time. Do scars turn off guys? I have quite a few scars on my body nothing big or anything the biggest one I have is less then the size of a penny. But they just bother me all the time I have a small one between my chest and a few on me legs and butt, mainly they are childhood scars and scars from bug bites, so like I said nothing big. But I just feel that if a guy sees them its going to gross him out and turn him off. So its just something I'm very self-conscious about, and I'm told all the time by guys that I'm attractive and beautiful but just deep inside I'm just bugged by my scars. And im starting to date again and when I eventually get to the stage of wanting to be intimate I am petrified of a guy just being turned off by them. Everybody says I'm crazy for thinking this but i think as humans we put a lot of pressure on our looks especially girls. So do guys care about scars?

Im bi and my girlfriend who I adore has giant scars all over her back because she had surgery on her spine. I think no less of her for it and I think she is beautiful. i also have a large scar that goes from my shoulder blade to my lower back and wraps around the front and my side. i dont care. I needed the surgery and anyone who would rather let me live in pain than deal with the scar isn't worth my time. scars are not something you care about when you love someone.

I actually don't mind having a few scars. Most if mine are from cutting. But they tell a story. If a guy asks about them it opens up an intimate piece of my past and let's him in a little.. and how he reacts to that says a lot.

Be proud of your battle wounds! The right guy won't see you as even a little less beautiful

I have one from surgery as a baby because of pyloric stenosis. It is a noticeable scar when I wear bikini's and you know what? I don't give a shit. It saved my life and if it bothers anyone, then they don't need to be in my life.

sex is to make baby. so if it's not natural, it's ok i think

Scars are your body's way of telling a part of your life's story. If a guy is going to be grossed out by a scar then he is not a guy you want. A woman is beautiful with or without scars. Don't be worried about them. No one is perfect, there are celebrities who photo shop scars out of their photos and it's stupid because everyone knows they are there. Every one is unique and its a part of who you are. Dont deny your beauty.

It's not a huge deal. Look at Padma Lakshmi, the Indian supergoddess. She has an enormous scar on her right arm from a car accident when she was a kid. Yet, she is righteous.

NO! How can you live your life without getting them? I LOVE girls so much who can rough it out and do their own thing and aren't too self conscious!! ;) Have confidence hun! Your body is YOURS someone telling you otherwise is a dumbass.

Scars have a magical way of reminding us that the past was real. I hear that from my roommate everytime people ask me about my scars, and although I can't say that I am the most comfortable with them, most guys think they are kinda cool and most girls don't seem to mind that much. I realized that I was the only one who views them as imperfections, most people aren't as shallow as they seem once you give them a chance.

No if she is beautiful and has a great personality I wouldn't pay much attention to those scars. Though it would worry me if she done them purposely to herself. Other than that your fine.

scars on face might effect the guys... but not on the body... i suppose
