Sometimes I get bloated after certain foods and at times I have looked 7 months pregnant (when I used to bulk at the gym), which made me very self conscious in intimacy and I’d have to consciously suck my stomach in so I don’t look weird. Do men care about this stuff? And yes I mean abdominal distension from gas/indigestion, not belly fat.

  1. As with everything its really subjective, some probably would dislike it while others find it a turn on or fetishise it. Most probably don’t even notice or think about it

  2. Men usually know how human bodies function.

    Funny enough, male friend of mine has the same doubts 😉

  3. As a guy who can speak for most men, “We don’t notice it the way you notice it.”

    You may think you look 7 months pregnant. We don’t pay that close attention to what you look like.

    Most men won’t see a major difference and we won’t worry about it if we do. We’re just happy to be there.

  4. Try lightly sprinkling the bottom, and absolutely no more, of an 8 ounce drinking glass, and absolutely no smaller, with baking soda, filling the glass completely with water and drinking it. It works like a good Tums.

  5. It’s objectively less attractive. I’m not going to tell you that people look better or the same when they appear fatter. They don’t.

    But if you have a partner who understands that it’s temporary, it shouldn’t be much of an issue.

  6. I don’t think I have ever in my 40 years on this earth thought about someone else’s bloating.

  7. I have liver disease. I am bloated often, to me it’s a fact of life Water weight goes and comes and so does gas. I live with it in anyone really

  8. After having been bloated a few times myself, I can honestly say I don’t care. Everyone gets bloated, perfectly natural thing to do.

  9. If I’ve seen you in your normal state and then I see you and you happen to be bloated, no need not worry nor do you need to suck in your stomach – I couldn’t care less. Well, I would care if you were uncomfortable from the bloating, but that’s about it.

  10. I will tell you honestly, the things I notice about my partner is her presence, her mood, and if she seems out of sorts, unwell or unhealthy. And I feel lucky to be with her, most of the time, which is the best you can realistically expect of anyone.

    Bloating? Are you still you?`

    The real world isn’t nearly as superficial as the internet would have you believe.

  11. Are you a female? I’m asking because the perspective is a little confusing.

    I don’t get bloated anymore because I take fiber in the morning and eat 1 large meal per day.

    If I was bloated, my big concern would be shitting myself from the exertion of sex.

    Do I care about a belly on my woman? Not really, caloric surplus is very fortunate during famine.

  12. I don’t know about other men, but I’m not really into a stomach that isn’t as flat as the mountains in Denmark.

  13. No we dont care about your bloating. We do care about your health. Bloating to the point of you looking 7 months pregnant is not normal. Go to a doctor.

  14. Honestly, we cannot see it and if you show us we’ll think that you are a little crazy while admiring your tits.

  15. Bloating that extreme sounds like a medical issue.

    If my partner were to experience something like that, I’d mostly be worried.

    It’s probably not explicitly attractive, but I’d think of it like messy hair. Sometimes women have it and it doesn’t exactly look great. But that doesn’t change that they look great most of the time.
