Well @Wildflower that`s exactly what they are, signs of a life well lived and survived! Scars fade with age, so we should be proud of them! Wear them like a badge of honour!

All you guys in this community are amazing! Thank you xx
Hahahaha! That made me laugh ![]()
Though obviously a beautiful hobo nonetheless ![]()
Another irritating advert aimed at our vanityā¦that German caffeine shampoo they don`t explicitly say it because legally it"s probably a load of old cobblers, but they insinuate it makes your hair grow and prevents hair loss.
Thereās such fearmongering about going bald isnāt there! I find a bald head on a guy attractive, thereās something rugged about it. But thereās also some ladies who make it look beautiful and delicate (nothing compares, ey Sinead OāConnor?)
PLUS there is the amazing joy in rubbing the little fuzzy head stubble as it grows back in - one of my guilty pleasures in life ![]()
Itās so refreshing to see when people and brands do change the trend, and I hope more get on board.
I think Lovehoney do a good job with plus size women - I feel totally normal and accepted on LH - though I do suppose Iāve never seen any plus size men!
Another one I think does a great job is Lush - all their models are real looking people - so nice since body and skincare is such a universal thing
Or older models either.
Oh thatās very true @Ian_Chimp!! That hadnāt occurred to me!
There are often media shout outs on here for members to volunteer for a bit of PR and stuff. You normally need to share your real name and photo, so a lot of us donāt put our names forward.
Keep an eye out though if youāre up for it. ![]()
I think if this idea comes through its be really great
Thatād be good for individuals looking at fit and style, etc, but I still think youād want a wider demographic in the main product photos. I think more variety would give off a strong āthis is meant for people like youā vibe across the brand as a whole. ![]()
Good point well made. I wonder how much effort it would be to have multiple models for each item?
The older I get , the more effort it takes to stay in shape . Sure it is somewhat vanity , but mainly to stay healthier . I have stretch marks from my body building days . Heart surgery scar along with many small scars from working and playing hard . I have been a sun worshiper my whole life and tan very carefully and gradually . I like to think I look better than a high percentage of fellows my age ( 62) . I am retired and āworkā a bit less physically now , but I still play quite hard . Thank the lord for my chiropractor !
@Cassii thatās a good point and @Ian_Chimp also your point about lack of older models, Iād love to see people of my age group modelling stuff ![]()
I bet a few of us older members would be good ānormalā models, but i wouldn`t want to show my face! ![]()
Spot on @M32 itās whatās on the inside that counts! ![]()
I am with you on that ! I can just see relatives ( children ) and old friends and neighbors reactions .
Hahaa, so here goes, my confession, I bought me some feel good sexy boxers and some cage briefs LH of course, and as I ordered them I kept lookIng at the beautiful pictures and bodyās of the models thinking if only they could make me look that good.
Anyways they arrived and I tried them on, for a bit of fun I decided to mimic the models from LH and got the Wife to take some pictures, hence my new profile picture, now Iām 48, 5ā6ā tall and 10.5 stone in weight so definitely not model material, but I think and so does my better half, that I look damn hot in-fact let me just put it out there, better then those Photoshopped LH models ![]()
And one more thing as soon as I can, Iām gonna post them up on here ![]()
Yes, you look good in them!
@WillC why thank you sir as do you my friend as do you.
