I am a 27 y/o male that has just noticed dark purple stretch marks on my thighs. I'm not overweight..... I'm 5'10" 170lbs........ can't figure out why I'm getting stretch marks. I thought only pregnant women got stretch marks.

Most people have some stretch marks...they can be thin or overweight. It is just a sign of growth I think.....you can grow around the middle or in height or even getting muscles can cause stretch marks. Like I said before, most people have them so do not worry about it.

Well, it could just be that you're getting older. But my friends mom had c section and she got stretch marks, but it doesn't mean poor health

You may not be overweight now but if you ever were thats what happens when your skin stretches out.

have you lost weight recently? anyone can get stretch marks. mostly comes from gaining/losing a significant amont of weight. check to see if they are vericose veins. bodybuilders and wrestlers have them too. alot of overweight people have them.
