Can't help you with our question, but when using the word Marines, it will be capitalized at all times. Also, fill out the rest of your profile so the Marines here know who they are talking to, and read the rules in the Poolee forum.

If worrying about getting teased is such a big concern, the Marine Corps is not for you.
Boot camp is 35/7 teasing (or at least it feels like 35/7). The fleet drops to only 24/7 teasing.

I doubt the stretch marks are the main issue. Judging by what you said, you have issues with yourself and your self esteem.
I guess if you want to be a Marine bad enough, then you will learn to not worry about what others think of you.

Thick skin is one of the requirements
