Own your apron belly ladies!

I have lost a shed load of weight this year. It's not been enough to lose the apron belly I've had for the last 30 years.

I need new knickers. None of the models in any of the shops I shopped in today had an apron belly like mine. I started the day getting depressed. I ended it thinking stuff them all, I need to own my belly.

So here it is.

Any of you willing to post your apron belly pics like me?

What’s wrong about this exactly and why are you so triggered?

Your use of the word triggered in this context is presumably your attempt to dismiss this poster’s quite reasonable response to the OP. Maybe have a think about that.

Yeh I’ve ’had a think’ (obviously) and I can’t imagine why anyone would be uppity, moral highground-y or snooty about a photo of a midsection without a face, which is why I asked.

Can you really not? I think you're sadly pretty naive about what some herberts use the internet for.

Nothing to do with moral high ground. You’d clearly be amazed what people will wank over. And equally as astonished how men have used this site in the past to get the material to enable that.

If there’s no face, they don’t know who it is.

Also, it’s no longer the early dawn of the internet. The internet is literally choc full of imagery, from the blatantly UNsexual, the v mildly suggestive, the erotic, titillating and the highly explicit.

I don’t think this is worth policing (can’t really understand why anyone would think so) but I accept that’s just my opinion and people clearly feel differently.

There have also been many, many threads in the health section where people were posting photos of their vulvas, bumholes, piles etc and apparently that is also perfectly normal. It took someone spreading csa images over the site for them to decide that actually maybe they should block photos of genitals

Oh do get a grip!! These are not sexual or private areas. They're our stomachs. Posting honest photos of bellies is in no way comparable to posting photos of vulvas or anus. Is your implication that this thread was started in bad faith? I don't think it was. I think it was started to break the taboo about this part of our bodies.

I think you’re the one who needs to get a grip, getting so worked up about my reply. If you’d read it properly you’d have seen it was in response to someone else asking why this thread was allowed. If they allow photos of genitals then they are hardly going to ban photos of someone’s stomach are they
