stella777 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 So, when I was younger and I my breasts were developing I didnt care about my bras at all, and I dont know because of that or just my skin type now I have stretch marks all over my breasts! So yesterday I just found out my actual bra size which is like 32 E, I always thought Im at most DD or something. So I found out I never cared about my actual size and now I am so depressed about this fact and blaming myself so badly because of having stretch marks!:sad: So, now I am kinda self conscious about my body. I am not a big girl, not slim either,and Im curvy, with losing 10 pound or somethin I think Ill be in a good shape. but stretch marks really bother me. I have them all over my breasts(light marks tho) and my lower back and my butt. sometimes I even hate to wear a bathing suit cause of them. my question is what guys think about this? is this a turn off for you? the guys that I have had which are not a lot never mentioned it. but I am still insecure about them. So tell me is it a turn off? if you see a girl showing her stretch marks in beautiful dresses or bathing suits what will you think? Link to comment
RayKay Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 My sister is a 32E too - hard bra size to buy! Don't feel bad...something like 80-90% of women are wearing the wrong bra size and don't know their real size! Stretch marks are normal during periods of rapid growth - bra or not. I have very fair skin, so have very pale ones too (can't see unless look close) on my breasts and on my hips - I have never had anyone complain Link to comment
RayKay Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 P.S. Guys get them too. I used to date a man whom had them all accross his back (horizontal ones) and they were visible - never bothered me! In real life, people don't have bodies like models (and not even the models look like the models....it's amazing what makeup, airbrushing and retouching can do!). That's what makes us real and beautiful! Link to comment
angel1980 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 i have a few light ones round my hips and a little on my breasts aswell... a nice layer of fake tan usualy covers them up nicely. i swear by fake tan, couldnt be without it Link to comment
Obblhey Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Actually, some breast freaks like myself are turned on by stretch marks on breasts because they indicate growth. Link to comment

ghost69 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 i wouldn't want to have a gf with stretch marks unless we happened to have a kid together or something. i also don't want a girl that has stretch marks from being overweight. just not my thing. Link to comment

ghost69 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 mine are not because of being overweight, it happened during puberty and when I was growing. that's pretty common though. i could live with that. but if it was like your hip to your neck, not attractive. Link to comment

People don’t get stretch marks just from gaining weight or being overweight or pregnant. As I said, I have very light ones (I doubt others even notice them) on my breasts and hips from normal growth during puberty. I have never been overweight (and am quite slender) or pregnant.

PixelPusher Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 No, it doesn't bother me at all. It's a natural thing. The woman I dated right after my divorce had them due to breast feeding years before. I thought it was kinda sexy, actually. Link to comment
JadedStar Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 The stretchmarks are from the skin stretching not from lack of wearing a bra (that would lead to sagging). Typically this occurs when one gains and loses a lot during their lifetime. If you took BC's or certain types of steroids that can cause it too.... Link to comment
JadedStar Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Gaining and losing is the number one reason for stretchmarks (its not the weight gain per se but rather the hormones produced)...this is why pregnant women get them the stomach has to expand and shrink rapidly. It is not the actually expanding of the skin but rather hormones that are released when this occurs. Some people get them for other reasons, such as yourself, but losing and gaining are the biggest reasons for them. Also BC pills are another cause. It depends on one's skin type. Some skin is more suspectible to getting them for a number of reasons.I think i remember reading that dry skin is more prone than oily skin. Link to comment

jengh Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I'm a DD-DDD cup and when I was developing, I got stretch marks VERY bad.... they were disgusting, I was SO self-conscious.... For some reason or another, I started putting anti-biotic cream and hydrocortisone cream on them.... one of them helped, they're gone now. Link to comment
JadedStar Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 at least this is what other people have told you This is what i have read in medical journals. I dont have any stretchmarks or sagging chest so i am not going by experience. Link to comment
