Maybe you should treat your OCD and control issues instead if expecting everyone with moles to have them surgically removed.

I have never noticed Lively's mole before and now that it's brought to my attention I think it suits her and is part of her beauty.

I agree. My child's mole is fine, it's been checked out by docs, if you don't like it, that's a YOU problem. Get over it, judgmental jerks.

OK now, but moles grow.

and as I said, if they actually grow, you get it checked by a doc for possible cancer

this isn't that hard.

Remove them if you wish, but they aren't hurting anyone else.

Sure, but we were talking about moles being beautiful. They can be cute on a child, but once they start growing, there's nothing pretty about them. Sorry.

No I am sorry that you are so uneducated.

Not all moles grow. The vast majority of moles are benign and will look the same you're entire life. I have hundred of moles on my body and 99.9999% of them never change. The few that do I get removed. 0% of my moles are your business though.

You have hundred of moles on your body and they are not my business?! Um...ok, thanks for sharing on a public forum, enjoy them.

You seem very dumb.

Lots of healthy, normal people have moles all over their bodies. Look up Kenneth Rooks who just won a silver at the Olympics in 3000m steeple chase. His back is covered in moles just like lots of people.

Being horrified or disgusted by this is no different than thinking dark skin is ugly or that someone's crooked teeth are your business to weigh in on. The PP who said Nazi earlier was actually not far off (and I do NOT throw that word around lightly).

Right, one must be dumb and a Nazi if they don't want more moles on their face and body

Moles are not contagious.

If you want to remove moles on your body no one cares.

Wanting to force other people to remove moles on their bodies because you find them "icky" is actually in line with the way Nazis thought about people and "purity."

Like ask yourself what it is about moles that bothers you. Is it that they are dark marks? That they disrupt otherwise "pure" skin? Do you think moles are signs of disease? That every mole is cancer? That people with moles must be dirty?

Sorry that I refuse to accept your weird obsession with other people's bodies as normal and fine.

There's more than one person you're responding to (surprise!). I'm the one who simply doesn't find them beautiful.
You need to calm down.

I think the people who need to calm down are those who are so delicate that the sight of a mole (something almost everyone has) freaks them out.

Actually now I'm wondering if people don't know the difference between moles and warts. Because the idea that a mole is upsetting or disgusting makes so little sense -- they are so commonplace. Like I can think of dozens of celebrities with facial moles and I would be surprised to meet someone with no moles at all.

So maybe people just think warts are a kind of mole. I do agree that if you have warts you should have them removed. I would definitely have a wart removed if I got one.

yes everyone typically has some moles. but it's different to have some or even quite a few small ones than to have really big, prominent ones and be in denial that some will find them offputting.

Anonymous wrote:Re: Olympians with moles. Is there any way the outdoor training has given rise to the number or extent of moles? Just a thought.

Sun exposure can make moles look darker in appearance so it's possible that athletes who train outdoors are more likely to have visible moles. But then hormones are also known to make moles darker or larger (both puberty and pregnancy are common reasons totally unrelated to cancer that a mole will get bigger. Also I think fair skinned people (of any ethnicity) are just more prone to moles generally. Obviously lighter skin also makes moles more obvious but I also think they've found that lighter skin leads to more moles anyway like there might be something about the way skin with less melanin develop moles that makes it more common. So I don't think the correlation between sun exposure and moles is as 1:1 as some people think -- some people are just predisposed to more moles even if they are very careful in the sun.

Re: Olympians with moles. Is there any way the outdoor training has given rise to the number or extent of moles? Just a thought.

I'm watching Olympic track and field right now and so many of these athletes have prominent moles and it does not detract from their appearance at all (and obviously doesn't impact their performance). Watching Anna Hall on heptathlon and she is (1) absolutely stunning and (2) has several facial moles.

I'm really surprised to read all these posts saying they are gross. It feels like an opinion people would have had during the middle ages based on some weird theory about how moles are the mark of the devil or something. Like it just sounds like an old fashioned or ignorant opinion based on weird prejudice.

Same. If I had all my moles removed I'd have had like 100 skin excisions by now. Perhaps more.

I see a dermatologist regularly and we keep track of any "concerning" moles and have those excised and biopsied if necessary. But the handful of moles on my face have not changed in size or appearance since I was a child so I've never bothered. I personally like how they look and it's my face.

I once had a woman freak out over a mole on my shoulder because it's "irregularly" shaped and she was lecturing me about how I needed to get it checked and it was "disgusting." It's not even a large mole -- just a little odd shaped instead of perfectly round. I asked my derm about it at my next appointment and she was like "no I don't worry about that one -- it's small and has normal color and has never grown. But this woman was throwing a fit about it.

This is very much where this is just about some of you having weird OCD tendencies and needing to weight in on other people's bodies and appearance. Being "grossed out" by something as normal and commonplace as a mole is a reflection of your own psychological issues. See a therapist.

The one on my hand (go away, annoying mole n@zi) is looked at by every single doctor I see because it has multiple weird characteristics - not symmetrical, not all one color, that kind of thing. But I have had it for my entire life and it has NEVER changed. And when I did attempt to get it removed, the plastic surgeon told me the scar would be bigger because of location/proximity to bone.

Oddly, the type of mole (blue nevi) is more common in Asian populations and I am as white as white can be.

People need to mind their business. I mean, I wouldn't be mad if someone said it was odd and I should get it checked. Usually, I just tell them "yes, I have had it looked at already and it's nothing"

People who freak out about moles tend to have anxiety and OCD. They need to look inward. I just have a little brown mole on my cheek -- you have a black spot on your personality. Only one of those things is malignant.

this right here!

This seems a little harsh...A black spot on the personality? I just don't really like them, particularly if they are large. I apply that same standard to myself, I have gotten many even small moles removed if they were very dark. I don't think they take away from someone's beauty and would never comment on someone's mole or body. I just find them distracting if large. That's all. Lively's is small but yes I think I would have removed it. To each his or her own.

"I WOULD have it removed" is not the same as "she SHOULD have it removed." Totally different level.

There is a PP who literally said about a child she's never seen before: You should get it removed before your kid is too old.

Dude - don’t be childish.
People have eyes and have opinions about looks. If your child’s mole bothers them as they age then support them to have a removal. You can’t change all other humans

Are you stupid? Obviously if my child wants to have her mole removed when she's older, we'll do it, but what we don't do is remove it because some rando on the internet says "ew, moles are icky, take it off now!"

Not sure what's wrong with you?

Isn't that the difference? Attractive people can usually get away with imperfections and still be attractive. Regular people aren't given that leeway.

But if that's the case then who cares either way. If you aren't very attractive then removing a mole is not going to change that. Likely there are other interventions that would actually improve your appearance -- teeth straightening and whitening or plastic surgery. A mole removal is quite literally superfluous -- it won't make an ugly person beautiful anymore than the presence of a mole makes an otherwise beautiful person ugly.

Facial moles are so common on actresses that I wonder if it's viewed as a positive in casting especially young actresses. Like if you are just starting out and every audition you go on is filled with beautiful young actresses but you have a prominent mole on your cheek or under your eye it might be just enough to make you stand out. I've heard that this is true of minor imperfections in teeth -- there are actresses who were told early on to never get their teeth fully straightened because slight imperfections (in otherwise lovely smiles with nice white teeth) can give you a bit of character that makes you seem more relatable to audiences. I feel like a mole might be similar -- the actresses who become most famous and successful usually have something a bit different about them that makes them stand out. They are not just generically beautiful (actresses like that wind up getting stuck in soap operas or generic nighttime ensemble dramas where they never stand out).

You are confusing multiple posters. I said they were icky but I never said anything about nazism. I am a np.
I don’t think people should be forced to have moles removed. I personally think they are in some cases (most) suboptimal especially when prominent and if it were me I would deal with it asap. Just like I’d deal with any physical defect or live with the dad that it’s not ideal (many things about me are not ideal). What I would not do is assume that noticing issues with appearance makes other people the problem. That’s just life. I guess there are some people who don’t think moles are unattractive just like there are people who don’t think weight is an issue or crooked teeth etc. which is fine and good for them. But a good chunk of the population do get the ick from moles and I think that’s not something that requires therapy

Just to be clear:

You thinking moles are icky and judging people for having them is normal and "just life" and people with moles should just accept it.

But me thinking your obsession with benign moles on other people's bodies is a reflection of messed up thinking you should seek therapy for is unfair or wrong.

Mmkay.

yes. people think things on other people's bodies are icky. moles and many more physical attributes. it is not something you can control. it is a feeling. I am in no way obsessed and i think you know this. I'm sorry that the fact that people do not love certain aspects of others bodies and find them unattractive is an inconvenient truth for you, but it's not going to change so you are going to need to learn to accept this aspect of humanity.

You're really strange. You expect do much from other but nothing from yourself. Narcissistic tendencies?

If you are an adult and you think something as commonplace as a mole is "icky" I feel bad for you. It must be hard going through life with the sensibility of a toddler. "Icky" is a word for children who lack the emotional maturity to process things that are different or surprising. It is what my DC used to say about soup and peas when they were 3.

Even just a cursory google search would let you know that like 99% of the population has moles and most people have 10-45 moles. Moles on faces and hands are common. The vast majority of moles are totally benign and they can even fade with time.

You might find a mole like Lively's unsightly but you need to understand this puts you in a tiny minority-- most people do not care. It's like being a very picky eater as an adult or having a phobia about the color green. It's a dysfunctional preference.

So yes-- a "you problem."
