taking nothing away from the OP's picture..sure its great photography, and wills' pic shows a gorgeous woman (great photography again) but i dont see how stretchmarks and everything that comes with it as sexy.
No one's saying stretch marks are sexy, but they're common. Too fucking common.
I just did a little stat check, and based on race, stretch marks affect anywhere between 50% and 90% of people. Pregnancy alone, approx 43% of women get stretch marks. It seems to be strongly genetic-based. It depends on where you gain and carry weight, how fast you gain the weight, and whether you workout a lot (ripped out men have stretch marks).

What I'm trying to say here is, you won't find a lot of women these days without stretch marks on them somewhere. A lot of girls start seeing them at puberty, during growth spurts. It sucks alot. But that's life.

So, try not to focus so much on this equation you have in your head: Stretch Marks = Pregnancy = Gross
:P
There are a lot of other things about pregnancy that aren't attractive. The hormone rollercoaster is insane, for one. And the swollen feet are freaky.

The one thing that is attractive about pregnant women though, are the increase in curves. The boobs get bigger, the hips look more prominent, everything just kinda swells in the right places. I think that is what is most appealing.
