I saw a woman at work I was helping and she had on a midriff top. Her stomach was flat but she had a lot of stretch marks. Should a woman cover up or proudly show them off?

I have stretch marks from having 3 babies, I am proud of my children and if someone has a problem with my stretch marks, they need not look. That is the problem with this world, no one can mind thier own business!

Well it also depends on the women's age. My mother is 38, has no stretch marks (which is amazing since she had twins) but she dose shave a bit of extra skin. She wears belly baring tops a lot during the summer and I think it's horrible. I see other women with stretch marks who are in their mid 20's and it still looks horrible.
Obviously their stomach isn't looking so hott anymore, they need to find a different spot on their body to show off, like their legs, their shoulders, collar bones.

Cover up.Vitamin E oil or cream can be applied to the skin in the affected areas, every day . The cream should be applied overnight. Taking Vitamin E capsules also helps to reduce the scars or stretch marks. Some people break the capsules and apply the oil directly on the scars or stretch marks.You can find more cheap and natural remedies for stretch marks at the link below.

stretch marks are the badges of a a real woman, i say that muscle tone is more important than superficial skin "imperfections" and the sooner we women start to realize that and say fuc* what society says about beauty imma show mines and be proud of it, but yeah when i didnt have stretch marks i woulda said showin em was gross lol,

I wouldn't show my midsection, I'm a mommy and it's not pretty. But if you have the confidence to do it then go for it. I am not that bold. It's not that I'm not proud of being a mom or having been pregnant, I'm just not into flaunting something that I consider a flaw.

I don't think women should show their belly or hips at all and it really looks awful if they're overweight. Who wants to see that flab hanging out? The beach is the only place that's appropriate for showing that much skin.

showing midriffs in general is tacky unless you are at the beach or are in a beach town. many women have stretch marks, so it is their choice to show them off, but i think they are not so attractive.

Well, the majority of women have a few stretchmarks. I think people have to realise that it's perfectly natural and no big deal.
HTH : )

I think it depends on how bad they are. If they look like a raisin (which I've seen before) then no. If they are just there and the woman is comfortable, more power to her.
