I blame a good portion of these attitudes on Photoshop and video retouching.

People see stuff on the Internet and expect to see it mirrored in real life.

Naturally, if a person is dramatically different under their clothes and has never issued a warning, I can see a person feeling duped.

I think women who have given birth should give a guy a heads up that they have some stretch marks and/or loose skin. I'd rather a guy know I have stretch marks than be bummed out about it later.

I hate Spanx. That mess is not comfortable. If I need washboard abs to wear a dress and have it not look like crap, I'll choose another dress. Most decent dresses plus regular underwear will hold in a wee tummy pouch. And a guy who is freaked out by one of those on a naked woman really needs a hardbody type. I am not a gym rat. Toned is okay by me. I don't need to bench press more than my date to feel pretty.

Hey, you have the right to make a reasonable expectation when paying for it. If they are using edited or well disguised pictures you have every right to leave them sans money.

Sounds like someone who has too much idealized imagery in his head, setting up unrealistic or abnormal expectations.

I do not think his reactions are the norm at all, and I would not let his opinion of his dates contribute to any insecurities.

Geez, after reading this thread, if I ever found myself single I'd probably be terrified to get naked in front of someone else... unless he's okay with being blindfolded with the lights out.

If you ever found yourself single, just don't date anyone who is on CD. CD-ality is much different than reality.

Most men are pretty much happy that you showed up to the event and are a willing participant. The whole let down thing can go both ways, obviously.

I am still looking into her eyes, so it more what I feel than what I see.

Gawd, I hope so. I'm in pretty decent shape, but really got hit hard with stretchmarks (I show them to the kids when they're pissing me off "You did this to me!!"). I'd hate to have go under the knife just to get laid.

What do guys notice when they see a woman they see a woman naked for the first time.

Usually that I walked into the ladies fitting room by mistake!

I wouldn't sweat it.
