I think this thread

is very, very interesting, in a social science way.

Frankly, the reactions are pretty much as I have expected.

My opinion lol

Hey Ppl

Being "in the minority" around here(along with at least Tom and Jason lol) I would have to say whilst they dont appeal to me I guess on guys its a case of if its what ya want go for it- think anything on the face or anywhere that cant be covered easily is kinda stupid tho!.
On Women though- NO!!!!!!!! I cant think of anything that can change my opinion of an otherwise attractive woman as quickly. Glad im not alone on this one , thought it was me being picky lol!!

Well you certainly can't please everyone!

And I really will try and watch what I say regarding this thread.......I'll try to be *nice*.
I have 4. *gasp!* One...everyone would see. The other 3 you can't see...
I have a total of 7 piercings in both ears, and a belly button ring, I had done on my 40th birthday...
BIG DEAL...
I work in the corporate world...downtown, suits...etc..and only ONCE did I have someone tell me the Tat on my left hand would hinder my ability to get a job in the field. (I think I wanted to be a flight stewardess at the time)
I've had an interesting life so far, to say the least. YES, I rode Harleys....in the 80's...and WITH A CLUB...OMG...I also had a cool 1/4 of a million dollars in the bank back then, so does that make me a bad person? (It was legal money)
Please don't judge folks by their tats, and piercings...except I think the face stuff goes a little to far...
And if you want to see some SERIOUS piercings...I have some very interesting photos from the Solstice Parade in Santa Barbara, LOL
In life....there are far more serious things to worry about..
I'll step off now...

If nothing else, I hope this sight had empowered us to make our own choices and not feel a need to justify it to others. Some tattoes are truly a work of art.
Having a tatto is a bit like having a sex change. Once you have made the choice, there is no turning back. I have bought, sold and traded every possession I ever owned and have constantly evolved in personal style, so my wardrobe and furnishings are all on a revolving door policy.
I would be afraid to make a choice that comes with a daily visual reminder for the rest of my life.
No turning back now!

Maytag Mom....(and others)

Speaking personally, and as I mentioned before, generalizing is not a good thing to do, but no matter how good a person we think we are, we tend to do it.

Please don't take any offense. I don't know you, but you seem to be a really neat person, judging from your posts, your taste, and your outlook on life!

My comments were not meant to make you feel bad, and I know threads like this may hurt feelings. Apologies.

I've got a celtic cross just below my sholder on my arm. It has the trinity rings behind it with colors radiating out of it. Sort of looks like the art glass window at my church.

It covers up a scar that I got when I was younger from a surfing accident. I landed sideways on that arm on the beach, and got pushed up the beach by the surf, leaving sort of a "skinned knee" on my sholder. I got the cross done to cover it up, because everyone always asked questions as to how I got that mark there. Luckily, it's high enough that even a short-sleeve shirt covers it and I have no problem at work. Most people there didn't even know I had it till I had shown some.
 
My two cents!

I have a rose on my chest. It's been there 20 yrs, (Thank God it's still in the same place, LOL )!

I want to have it removed! I'm just over it. Not that I have anything aganist them, because I don't! It's pretty easy to figure out the type of person your dealing with without judgeing them because of ink in their skin.

Tattoo's on women: I don't have a problem with, I just don't like seeing them on their face or neck. The one's that go across their lower back I think look cute!

Tattoo's on men: Men can get away with a lot more but, I still don't like seeing them on there face.

Piercings: I've had my belly button done for 10 yrs.

I think piercings are cool and sexy but, not on your face!

I tried to talk Veg into getting a band around his arm and his nipple pierced! Wouldn't go for it!
 
I also forgot to mention I have both my ears pierced too. I usually keep just some small hoops in them most of the time, but I do have some celtic jewelry I'll wear in them on occasion. My GF also wanted me to have some other locations below the belt done, but I think that would be a bit too painful

AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know they had a similar practive during the middle ages. It was called torture.
 
Tatts

I love tatts on other guys, especially on other hairy well built guys. I have seen guys who have them done on their faces stupid I know. as a joke I had a friend round for coffee one afternoon. He had had a ring put thru his penis, and took great delight in getting it out. Well being very well hung and giving me a twinkle in my eye, what hit me was the smell he had not washed the end of his penis. It was rancid.
 
No tattoos on me. I don't have anything I want to draw attention to!

And I was just kidding about the PA. I mean, really...how much must that hurt?

I did hear an amusing story once about a feller with one. It involved a nude pool party and a lawn chair...

tatoos can be ok

I'm just not much for the ones that cover whole arms or whatever...the chain thing around a bicep is kinda hot though...
Not for piercing at all here, huge HUGE turn off!
 
How I love tattoos...

I have to say that I have quite a few myself.

Let's see, the first tattoo I got was in 1998 when I was 18. It's not very big, just 3 different colored shooting stars on the left side of my chest.

Then I got two large swallows that are facing each other below my belly button. I later added a large nautical star between the swallows and 4 black stars around each swallow to give it a little "something".

After that I got two large roses done on my shoulders but more towards the back. One is red and the other is violet.

The next one is a huge tattoo that covers the entire lower back area. It's a nice custom piece of a girl with flames, playing cards (all 4 queens) and bowling stuff in the background. Below are three hearts slightly covered by a ribbon that says "Queen of Hearts".

The one after that was a small one that is on the right side of my chest. It's a lollipop with a ribbon over the it that says "sucker". Dual meaning I suppose... ahem.

The last one is currently a work in progress. It's a large rose that has blue flames in the background. The flames are colored in but the rose and its petals still need to be done. The rose has a ribbon underneath it that says "Mom". I'm getting it done in rememberance of my mother. When my mom was 39 and I was 19, she confessed to me that she had always wanted to get a tattoo but was always too scared. She asked me if I would go with her to get her very first tattoo. I told her I would and I even took her to my tattoo artist because I knew he would be very nice and gentle with her, plus he would give a slight discount. My mom wound up getting a small tattoo on the right side of her chest. It was a long stem red rose with blue flames in the background.

All my tattoos are in the traditional style, think Sailor Jerry.

I'm not sure when I'll stop getting them. I don't want to be covered or anything, and so far all my tattoos are in places you can't see if I'm wearing my professional work clothes. But eventually I'll run out of space.
 
Don't do it Greg!!

You'd better think twice about that Maytag tatoo Greg! Thirty years from now it could look more like "Maysag"! ;-)
 
Down Deep

We mustn't judge. He is probably a soccer dad, church deacon and banker from Des Moines. That's just camoflauge so he can hide in the vault.
Tatoos don't make the man, he is just expressing himself.

Noyt that there is anything wrong with it..........

I don't know.

As an anal-retentive former accountant I'm the type that probably said:

"Look mommy I washed the wall. Isn't it nice and clean and bare and fabulous?"

The artistic anal-expulsive type (as above, perhaps) probably said. "Look mommy I took my poo and made a mural on the wall." More in line with => Notice me and my artwork.
