    Great point, Missy.

    Come to think about it, I lost count the number of times I've seen "buttcracks" because of the new fashion statement trying to be made.

    I personally wouldn't like to see it; stretched, veiny skin - ugh, no thanks.

    It's good that this women obviously is far from self-conscious, though, and I do admire her for that.

    I'm more old fashioned when it comes to things like this. I tend to think just because one isn't ashamed by some part of their body doesn't mean it's appropriate to leave it unclothed in public. It's like wearing shoes and shirt into businesses, it is just the appropriate thing to do. Different places and different situations should have different degrees of formality. A church generally one dresses nicer to go into, or remove your hat at the door. A fancy restaurant one generally dresses nicer and doesn't come in in grungy shorts and a T-shirt. A public place for shopping and so on, I feel someone should at least keep top and bottom mostly covered. That includes the 'butt cracks' of course . I don't think it's a matter of being ashamed or not, I just think it's taking into consideration the time and place you are at and the etiquette for that situation.

    I agree with Miss Z.
    Stretchy, veiny skin tends to gross me out..

    Personally I wouldn't do it. But I would not have a problem seeing it. Take being pregnant during the summer. You got way more hot when you are pregnant in the summer and staying cool is very hard to do when out in public. So I can totally understand some pregnant womem wanting to have a bare tummy at that time, though agian I would not do it.

    But then I am very old fashoined. I will not breast feed in the open. I prefer to teach my children to take a bottle and breast feed. So if i have to go out then I pump ahead of time and can then feed with a bottle. I could never be one of those moms that just whips it out, with nothing covering them or the baby, and feed them. For me personally I just could never do that.

    But back on bellys look at all the men with the beer bellies hanging out or completely shirtless out in public. To be honest I would rather see a pregnancy belly over a beer belly. lol
