Your friends say it’s attractive and cool, but…….. Imagine your grandkids asking their Mom/Dad: “Why does grandma have…eyeballs printed on her breasts?; barbed wire around her ankle?; some guy’s name that’s not grandpa on her neck? Imagine your sister’s or brother’s kid’s asking them: “Why does Aunt Jane always wear long sleeves?” Imagine your kid(s) asking you: “Why don’t the other mothers in my (high school) graduating class have tattoos, I thought you said it was common when you were young?”

Now, I’m going to take a lot of flak for this from all the “hobbyists” that will defend your right and/or accuse me of just being old school and try to run me off the board defending their ATF, etc. But, if you can get access, read the ROS’s of as many reviews as you can find and you’ll get the true picture, usually with no BS. I have yet to find one review that says – “go see this girl, she’s got great tattoos”. What you will see, included in the vast majority of reviews – “a few tats, but nothing too distracting” – does that sound like a compliment?

Body ink does not make you (or Angelina) more attractive, it’s a distraction from your real beauty. If this post stops one beautiful woman from turning herself into a billboard, it was worth all the crap I’m going to take for voicing my opinion.

I challenge you to find something more romantic and heart warming or something to tie the family unit closer together than tats.

I used to think the same about the rise in ink and what our grandkids will think and say. But then it occurred to me: our grandkids are probably going to be into some shit that will make our tatted-up asses look like Dick and Jane.

I've seen many women with lots of tattoos and to be honest, it doesn't bother me at all. I don't think anyone is going to try and run you off or hate on you at all. It's just one of many opinions and preferences we all have.

Don't worry about the innocent minds that pose those questions, how about taking the opportunity to educate them about stereotyping. Then future generations won't have to ask those questions.

. Gang tatts? Well that's a different story lol

Tats are great ways to quickly identify the socially or mentally impaired, without having to ask any questions.

Sleeves = moron
Neck, face = life imprisonment, murderer

You mean, it's not 'Pusy Eter"?! I better see if I can get mine fixed...

I think opinions are influenced a lot by a person's station in life and the company they keep...

If I am at a function out at a country club, over in the Domain or on retreat with others I interact with professionally.... I simply never see ink...... I see ink on the workers at Amy's Ice cream, in Hot Topic and other similar Mall stores, Music stores, in the ticket booth at the theater, on the bouncers, bartenders and waitresses at some of the clubs I might go to.....

With rare exception, I think ink that cannot be easily covered with clothing choices appropriate for the occaision and locale is a poor choice.

I may like the look and ant to fuck a gal with a sleeve but I'm not taking her to a lot of places I go.

Those pics are pretty funny!! To the OP, my personal preference is no tattoos on me. I believe tattoos are like any other feature men like or dislike, hair color, body type, ht/wt, etc. I've had men tell me how sexy it is for a woman to have "tasteful" tattoos. What that means to each individual, I don't know. I'm ok with that and understand I'm not every mans "flavor". I must say, I do find tattoos on a man very sexy!! With that being said, I would not use that one thing as a determining factor to their "beauty". I have met several gentleman with no tattoos that are just as sexy!!! (you know who you are!!] ;-).... I have also met several ladies with tattoos and they are pretty sexy as well!!!
