Stretch marks from pregnancy are our battle scars, comments that belittle the sexy/beauty of gravida I, II, III etc… and its’ inherent results on a females' body just perpetuate in women more reasons to hate our bodies, we can't always help the stretch marks, but we can help the men we marry to understand if you enjoy getting fucked, than you better start appreciating that which we fuck you with, our bodies, even the stretchy bouncy ones. The lineage that comes forth from stretch marks is yours too, my loves, yours to love and name and look at as your creation (both the child AND the marks from that effort), that creation of life is your future unfolding before you. I love my stretch marks, I LOVE THEM, they represent the love between my husband and I and they represent the gift that life has given me in the ability to present to my husband his children, our children.
I trace my marks with my fingers and remember the moment I first felt my son move inside me and how that took my breath away and changed my perspective of life, changed me. O.k., I modeled in L.A. for a few years of my life, being thin and blah, blah, blah was extremely important to me, I still want to look good and try to stay in shape, though a bit heavier now, It is important for me to know my husband finds me attractive, funny, my stretch marks do not even enter my equation in the mirror of what is wrong with my body, I see life marks there and the gift of that experience. The op asked if one finds pregnant women attractive, if all you see when you look at a pregnant woman is stretch marks (now or later), then you are blind, imo.
