"So I guess the reason I don’t have a torso pic is because I have a scar down my stomach and I’m quite conscious of it. Would scars put anyone off someone?
Should I just embrace it?

Embrace it, it's part of what makes you, you..

Scars have stories attached to them and are part of your life story, embrace them and remember the scars you have show the battles you have fought and won |

Unless you want to not show it incase it makes you easier to identify in real life then just go for it, anyone you meet is likely to see it at that point anyway. If you’re very self conscious maybe keep those in your private pics or friends only.
I met a lovely lad who’d had heart surgery so had a big scar but it actually wasn’t massively noticeable until he mentioned it then I realised it was actually visible in the pics
It might give someone the conversation starter they need to get to know you better |

I think along the same line that you fought and won!
I have my own scares too |

Ha! Stomach scar. Owl has one across his lower abdomen about 4 inches long and a whopper going from his sternum to his pelvic arch and I fancy the arse off him even if his belly button is now off centre.
Scars show what you've lived through and if you are smiling what has helped shape you into a human being.
We don't go looking specifically but are not adverse to them. |

I have major ones on chest and back. Growing up I hated them. I was then really lucky to be hairy and the hair covered them. As time has gone on I’ve learnt to love them. They are me. They tell my story. I will now happily wax my back and short shave (dad bod) my chest for holidays/summer now. They are like tattoos, they tell my story. |

I have a rather large horseshoe shaped scar on one of my arms.
When people ask me how I got it, I tell them that the story I tell depends on how d*unk I am .... and it's their round" |

I’ve got a 12” scar down my left leg (chainsaw accident) I’ve often joked I got attacked by a shark…to paraphrase Mr Connolly it makes me look “windswept and interesting” of course everyone knows chicks dig scars! |

I’ve got one from above my belly button, goes around it and keeps going down a bit further.
My belly button looks messed up lol and the scar tissue is quite thick and still has the redness to it! Just in my opinion doesn’t look nice |

I don’t find them off putting at all. They tell a story, they are interesting and they are part of you. I can’t see why anyone would have a problem with it |

Due to losing 10st in weight, I have had 6 major skin removal surgeries- I am scarred vertically & horizontally on my stomach, around the top of my buttocks, inner and outer thighs & vertically & under my arms! Donw of the scars are still quite dark pink & very noticeable but I can honestly say that even though everyone notices them & some have commented, nobody has ever had anything negative to say about them. They're part of who I am! I truly believe that if they don't bother me, they won't bother anyone else xx |

Sounds familiar.
Mine looks like it was stitched by Stevie Wonder.
I have a fair few in various places. I've always edited them out of pics (much like my ink) not because they bother me but because some are visible day to day and easily identify me.
Not once in over 10 years on here has it bothered anyone I've ever met.
Sounds slightly sexist (apologies) but it seems to bother women much more than men, whether it's C-section scars or any others. Which it shouldn't. Scars are as much a part of someone as a birth mark, tattoo, a wrinkle, a freckle or any other personal feature. They all have their own stories.

But you aren't the one who will be noticing it when you have someone going down on you and they won't be noticing it either. You look how you look because of the path you've walking through life, trials and tribulations. If you don't think people like the way you look you can always opt to fuck yourself right up like poor Leslie Ash - such a beautiful woman whose life was smashed by Botox. Grow old disgracefully and wear your body like you live i it. |

Everyone is different I guess, but I'd say a scar shows you've lived through something and you should be proud of it.
I have a few - elbow and forehead scars from a car accident as a kid, a few burns because I get clumsy when the decorators are in, and my most proud scar is my c-section one x |

Embrace it but understand that some people may be put off by it and they're perfectly within their rights to be however would you even want to meet those kind of people anyway? Probably not |

It doesn’t bother me at all.
I have a couple.
I’ve met men who have scars, too, in a similar place to what you describe, OP.
It’s more common than you think.
I admire people who just want to have fun and don’t let it stop them! Xx |

Scars dont put me off, shame would.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else |
I don't have significant scars, but I'm definitely not as originally supplied.
Scars are part of your unique story, OP. I understand being self-conscious about it, but there's not much to be done about it, so why let it hold you back? |

I’m actually put off if people look too perfect
I’ve got scars, birth marks, burn marks… I’ve lived a life that’s normal I’ve also survived life threatening scenarios on more than one occasion and I think that’s pretty damn awesome
Own your body it’s unique

MR here
I literally have a burn scar on my arm that looks like a Shrek head 
I mean I've got a few of them and this one's definitely the ugliest but honestly even though it looks absolutely ridiculous, anyone who's seen it and asked about it just has a laugh when I point out it looks like Shrek 
Something that looks so silly just makes people feel at ease really I've never had anyone comment saying it looks unattractive or anything like that and trust me it looks stupid |

Scars are part of you, they tell a story and have made you who you are today.
I've got 3 from an op recently and although the story is sad, I'm proud of them. I'm lucky to be here and the scars are a reminder of that. |

No. I found out very late in life when I met a heavily scarred women. I had not considered scarring to be sexy. It cane as a surprise. I found them incredibly exciting. On reflection it was because I was holding the visible signs of a person's life experiences in my arms |

Oh, and I forgot. My scars come from 1. as a child being hit in the face with a lump of ice (I got my own back several months later), 2. stab wounds (I won still), 3. an overly enthusiastic whipping session. The hospital doctor shook his head in despair when I answered the question "where did you get the scars". Don't ask questions that you don't want to know the answer to. |

I've got a large recent scar on my arm, I'm not bothered by sharing it on a photo as it barely seems visible beneath my hair but IRL I'll be honest it's not great to look at but I'm hoping given a few more months it will fade a little hopefully around the time I'm looking to start meeting again |

I had 3 c-sections years ago and didn't mind those, recently I've had a hysterectomy and I hate the scar caused by that. My Mr calls them my battle scars and says it's my life story. I'm beginning to accept my body for what it is now
