Yes yes the start of the thread does mention certain ages. I fall into the 35 or younger category. Im not sure what the average of hobbyists in my age group like or dislike tats on women. But as Ive read, its almost a given that the older gentlemen will frown upon a lovely lady with ink while the younger will not? But is it just a simple generation gap type thing? Couldnt upbringing also have a little bit to do with it? While growing up I was never told or saw that my family disapproved of tattoos, then again I can only remember very few family members with tattoos but yet these family members where very much loved and the tats were looked right past. I was never told, "You better never get a tattoo, because tattoos are for bad people like (please forgive me on this) bikers and foul mouthed sailors, and so help me if you do ever get a tattoo youll be disowned from the family!" Yikes with something like that, tats would have been off my list a long time ago as Im sure others would conform to such strict and wholesome upbringing. Just thoughts though, as the generations pass the "wholesome" factor deteriorates and a new tastes emerge out of past, dare I say, taboos. But I like the way mister Foxtrot said it,

However it is just as much our perogative to not appreciate the media as it is yours to indulge in it. Such is the subjective nature of any artform.

Well said sir.
