Birthmarks?

Tea-a-Maria

Do you have any?Are you embarrassed by them or do you show them off?

I have two.A patch of cat-hair on my neck,which I de-fuzz regularly because I have short hair, and a mole on my leg.I get a bit shy about it, but even so,I don't think I'd ever have it removed.I'd avoid short skirts on account of it,but the boyfriend thinks its cute.:o

When I tan/burn on my back this huge sprawling white patch comes up, where all the veins come together in my back - its the same colour as my normal skin tone so you don't notice it normally.

I have a "beauty spot" on my arm. Never bothered me in the slightest. Probably because my mother always called it a beauty spot :pac: I have the tiniest little tea stain on my knee that you would never know was there.

I do have a dreadful scar though but it's something that I've had for so long that I forget I have it. Actually I wonder does it freak my fake tan girl out? :pac:

I have a small one on my chin. My mam has one on her chin on the same spot too!

My sister has a big-ish one on her leg that she is quite conscious about and Dad has one that is more like hers on his arm.

I have one on my shoulder, always loved it. Made me fell unique

Chinafoot

I have a tea stain on my right leg, just below my knee. Doesn't bother me in the slightest and I usually forget its there. That being said, I wouldn't ever wear clothes that show my legs :P

lil'bug

i have one on my neck, it looks a bit like a hicky
the only time it bothers me is when people say "ooooh lil'bug got lucky" they never believe me when i say its actually a birthmark
I'm also covered in moles i'm like a giant dot to dot, i've always had them so i never really think about them

denmar

I have avery large one on my tongue !!

Storminateacup

I've got one on my back that looks like a patch of phsorysis. I don't really mind though because you can only see it if I'm naked/bikini.

Contessa Raven

I have a strawberry-like mark on my right wrist. It's barely noticeable anymore. It's faded over the years.

I also have a big dark freckle on my back just below my bra clasp. I can't really see it unless I look in the mirror.

longshanks

Have a big birthmark on my arse cheek and numerous marks from cuts and bruises and, oddly, some stretch marks on my back that only show up on the rare occasion I get a tan. They don't tan. To be honest I really couldn't care less about them, I only know that they are there when someone reminds me.

Seraphina

Not exactly birthmarks, though I've got quite a few moles and freckles, one of which is on my right breast near my nipple, and it's heart shaped. I think it's pretty awesome I kinda like my moles and freckles, there's an interesting smattering of them across my shoulders and a few on my legs and feet. I do worry about them sometimes though I have a slightly nobbly mole under my right arm, and a couple of years back I caught it in a bra strap or something and it went through a phase of bleeding and scabbing. I got it checked out with the doc and she said it was fine, but I might get it removed at some point in the future if it becomes bothersome again.

Roesy

I have one that pretty much takes up my entire left shoulder. I never took much notice of it when I was small. The only time it bothered me was when I started going out in my teens. Over the years I lost count of the people(mainly strangers!) who would think it was alright to come up to me and say things like 'oh my god what happened to your shoulder?' or 'were you burned in a fire?' if I was wearing strapless or one shoulder tops. One or two even thought it was okay to touch it. After a while I stopped saying it was a birthmark and started telling people it was a shark bite

Me too! I don't like the ones on my face really, I wish I had less. Other than that they don't bother me either.

I have a strawberry type birthmark on my face and another on my stomach as well.

Dolbert

Two tea stains on my right leg, both of which are shaped like Australia
And a little pink mole on my right forearm

SligoLady

I have a 'beauty spot' to the left of my belly button.. always liked it, unlike my freckly face! The OH has a pair of nubbins which he swears only developed in his teens... very peculair!

Novella

I don't have any birthmarks at all. I have a freckle all alone on one of knuckles though, but that's about it. Also have a surgery scar on my left arm which I hate with a passion.

Eve_Dublin

I have a sizeable one on the front of my right thigh shaped like a J. When I was kid, I thought the J stood for something important..perhaps the initial of my future husband. Then used to hate it as a teen and got self-conscious about it (but in fairness, I hated almost everything about myself as a teen being a teen and all) but I don't even think about it anymore. It's just a birthmark. Totally natural and normal.

phasers

I've none, but I've a load of scars on my back from an accident a few years ago.

Thankfully they've faded and you can only see them when I get a tan.

CathyMoran

I have a birthmark on the back of my neck, it does not really bother me, my daddy and my children have it too.

My scars are noticeable though and one has been commented on when I wear halternecks (it goes along my shoulderblade) - the one on my tummy is also noticeable (it goes down my tummy), the c-section scar is not noticeable.

I love mine too. I have a tea stain on my back, and one in between my fingers.
I don't have freckles or anything so I really appreciate the originality that it gives my body. I LOVE seeing birth marks and freckles on people! It makes them special.

Lady Chuckles

I have a small birthmark on my cheek. Generally it's no fun to have spots in your face, but it's always been there and I actually think it adds to my appearance. I tried to photoshop it away once just to see what it would be like without it... It looked empty and plain.

Little birthmark stays

MidnightQueen

I have one on my right leg in the shape of a heart. Always loved it! Wanted to get a tatoo around it too someday but duno what of yet. Anyone else have a heart shaped birth mark?

LenaClaire

I have about a bazillion freckles and little moles on my arms and shoulders. I joke that I don't tan, my freckles just merge for the summer.

I never really thought anything of them, they have just always been there. I have a little heart shaped freckle on my ankle and my mom has one in the same place so I always liked that one

tatabubbly

I has a little birthmark of europe on my left foot, mum always says it's cos I'm so independant!

Got vitaligo though, so unfortunately it's eating into my birthmark, mm by mm each summer that goes by!

I've got one small one on my arm, only pretty tiny and just noticed it recently. Other than that, I've got quite a number of freckles around my body, mostly my upper half.
