Do you have a Tatoo and do you think it is ok?

[CurtSibling]

Tattoos are fine if they are works of art.
A silly 'hello mum' tattoo is a bit pointless in my view.
No matter if you approve or not, a person's body is their own business, regardless.

PS
Pillage,
Are you going to tell me well-made traditional Japanese, Chinese or African tattoos are "bloody stupid?"

You may as well say that British culture is just as 'bloody stupid' too...

Oh, yah? Well maybe I have one that is HUGE, and on my CHEST... and... how do I top your "Thor god of thunder"?

I tried.

Have a tatto pen lodged into your head!

That will prove you are hard as heck!

 

[joespaniel]

Heres one of mine (15 years and it still looks almost as good).

No, I'm not. I'm referring to tatoos in this country. I think they are extremely ugly and pretty stupid. If you want to get one, fine, I don't care, it's your own body do what you will. But I still think they're ridiculous.

You kids today...

I don't have one, I don't want one. However sometimes they look good if they are tasteful.

I am not into the pain thing either.... I am always afraid in a short time I would think, "What WERE you thinking!" But that is just me.... My friend has one that is kinda sexy on her. I guess it depends on the personality it is attached to. hmmmmm after reading my own words, wonder how I can justify the navel ring I have?

That's a real cool one, joespaniel!

But how will it look in another 15 years? Or when you're retired?

 

[HotDog Fish]

If I ever got one I'd want it to be meaningful....but then again until they find a way to do it without a needle, I'm not getting one!

 

[nixon]

I would never want such a disgusting thing. Don't like girls who have them, spoiling their beautiful bodies with that.

I have two large tattoos, one for each underarm. I was thinking of putting them on my upper arm first, but didn't see the point of having them hidden most of the time. I can always wear a long-sleaved shirt for a job interview.

And yes, after four years, I'm still comfortable with them, and had I come across the right picture, would have gotten more. They are a bit addictive... Especially if most of your friends have tattoos as well.

A modestly-sized Tazmanian Devil on my right bicep. It's my totem.

I voted "I dont have a tatoo but i think it looks nice," but it really depends on the tatoo. A little rose on a woman's ankle is nice. I've known women with rings tatooed on their fingers or anklets on their ankles (fancy that) and they've looked good too. I don't think I would ever get one for myself, but I choose to judge each tatoo on its own merits, rather than stereotype all of them

I'm only 15 now, but i intend to get at least one later on in life.

I am currently thinking a large black dragon on my back, or a black pattern down my lower arms.

I generally dislike most tattoos. The tat artist must be a good one, and even then, I only like maybe 1 out of every 6 I see. That said, I do have one tattoo. It is a black ankh on my back, between my shoulder blades. I got it because it is a symbol for life and fertility. Being between my shoulderblades, I have not seen it in months. If I were to do any more tat work, it would probably just be a larger ankh on my back over the current one. I like tats in general, just don't ever see many good ones and as for myself, I am too picky to be covered with them. I do like the one joe posted. And I have seen some similar dragons that I liked. Only thing I would get besides an enlargement of what I already have would be a devil face.

 

[gr8ful wes]

I don't have one, but have seen some that are real works of art. I would rather spend the $ on other things, like gas in my car, food on the table, and beer in my belly.

 

[Immortal]

I will be getting one, not very big or colorful, but tasteful during the summer.

Whoa -- Now that looks like it will keep the beggars,
insurance salesmen, muggers and witnesses away!


I don't have any tattoos.

Nobody has offered me enough
dosh to advertise their company.

 

[Simon Darkshade]

I have three, none of which I like that much.

I'm getting them burnt off, then I might try some others.

Perhaps various one's inspired by Russell Crowe's in Romper Stomper and Ed Norton's in American History X.


Definitely a dotted line around my neck, with the words "Cut along the dotted line"
