I've got a lot of scars that I've received in work, from a traffic accident and from being treated rather badly as a kid.
Most women I know seem to love them, but why?
Answers:
1. i suppose it makes a guy seem stronger. although not true in some cases. i find that most guys i know like my scars too. it must be a human thing
2. I have no idea. It's a chick thing I guess....I find them attractive too, but I'm weird...lol
3. I'm the same, scars from football and operations, a 30cm scar running down my left arm and they feel compelled to run their fingers up it, that would be gross for me ! I think it's the warrior image, they love being protected and knowing a guy could do that.
4. I think it has less to do with physical attraction (to the scars) than the attraction to the stories those scars reveal. And those stories are just another way a person can get to know someone.
5. Some see them as Battle wounds. Proof that you are a "tough" guy and have survived whatever life has thrown at you. Kinda Sexy
6. i think for me at least...they make a person look less perfect which makes a person more approachable...and they also give a person rougher look and that's really hot...plus they are good conversation starters...
7. I think it has to do with some screwed up psychological understanding that you're a damaged person who a woman can take care of and bring back to health, despite the physical damage. It's seems strange, agreed. Also, I think, depending on the scar, it's just something girls find tough, that a man has seen battle/survived a death-defying incident/lived to talk about it. Kind of crazy, but true.
8. Women love bad boys. Scars are a sign that you got hurt and it excites her to think that maybe you did something dangerous to get it.
9. What a neat question!
I think it has some to do with adversity and some to do with compassion. It shows that the person with the scars has suffered, but survived. They have overcome a difficult and painful situation in which they were vulnerable in some way. The very nature of women dictates that they understand pain. < meaning from childbirth and menstruation to the menagerie of things women do to beautify themselves. > They can relate and feel compassion for the suffering that caused the scar. They also admire the person for overcoming, like in your case, abuse as a child, and accidents. You survived these things and they admire you for it. There is strength and comfort to be found in someone who is a survivor?
I don't think they love the scars, but can love the person brave and strong enough to have survived them.
