I don't really have many scars--one on my hand where I broke a glass and two on my legs that were fairly large and noticeable when I was a child but have faded to almost obscurity. I'd have to point them out to someone probably.

What I do have that bothers me, though, are my numerous, numerous stretch marks. I don't think about them much because Josh and I had already been together for years at the point I acquired them, but I suspect that were I to go on the market for a partner, I would be very embarrassed by them and hesistant for people to look at me. It's weird. I have no shame in front of Josh. None at all. I can loll about naked before him all day and I don't feel weird or self-conscious. I don't feel gorgeous LOL but I don't feel awkward or vulnerable. I think I would die if anyone else saw me naked. I can do trying on tops at a girlfriend's house in her closet, but that's about the extent of it.

Re sensitivity: I don't really have any scars to speak of, so I don't have any personal experience with that. But Josh's enormous scar of doom (from the lawnmower accident) has virtually no feeling at all. He had some nerve damage in the accident, so I think it could go either way on that depending on the severity of the injury.
