Bwahahahahahaha. Instead of having boring saggy skin I'll be like a human puzzle. Which fold goes where to make the picture. ;-p0 -
I don't have any and never will. That said, confidence is hot. Wear your tat(s) confidently or be confident in not having any. I don't mind them if they are original and have some meaning. Some lame-*kitten* barbed wire around your biceps? Perhaps you should've sat on that one a little longer.
Above all, I think you should not let other people's opinions dictate your choices about your body. When I was younger, I would've thrown a raging fit if my boyfriend told me he wanted to get a tattoo. Now, I wouldn't want to be with a man who would allow his girlfriend to tell him what to do.0 -
your tattoo s are gorgeous...I like nature so got lots of trees and flowersI'm not sure if they make one 'hot', but I love them. I think it's a preference, just like some like blondes, redheads, etc. Mine are not a 'permanent expression of a temporary feeling' or however one stated above...mine represent goals to me, or reminders of loved ones gone, or an expression of my love for my daughter. And it's art so WGAF? lol...it's like getting to wear your favorite shirt EVERYDAY! If you don't like them then don't get one- simples!0 -
As with everything it's subjective. If you like them and they make you happy, then that's a good thing.
I don't think I'll ever have one though. I change my mind so often that my passion this year is my ugly little embarrassing secret next year. I really don't need a permanent reminder on my body!0 -
On a beautiful woman...very hot!! Not to overdone, but tastefully placed and somewhat feminine is very sexy.0
-
Well thank you
I took that after my second session. Two more sessions to go on the chest. The bee represents my daughter (so NOT temporary feeling LMAO)...nature is a great muse. 0 -
I love them, as long as they're well done. I have one on my leg and hope to get more eventually. not easy to find money for tattoos when you're an 18 year old independent university student.0

I have a large one on my shoulder. My husband has a sleeve on his right arm. Tattoos alone aren't hot or not, it's the person that makes them what they are. My husband would be hot even if he didn't have tattoos.0

I like them. I only have one, because I got it when I was 18, and I was worried I'd get addicted if I continued getting them at that age. Now that I'm 23, I'm interested in getting a few more. I would never do a sleeve or even partial sleeve, not because I don't like them, but for three reasons:
A. I have no clue what I'd want (design/pattern/images)
B. I don't think I could pull off sleeves
C. career limitations
As to the last point, I'm sick of piercings and tats being taboo in workplaces. My boyfriend is a high school teacher, he wants to get sleeves, but if he does he won't be able to wear short-sleeved shirts to work, ever. He teaches at an inner-city school, half of his students already have face tattoos.
Plus I would't be working with kids, I'd be working in either a professional office-type environment, a doctor's office, or on the street doing research in city neighborhoods. Tattoos shouldn't limit me in any of those places, but they would if I were job-hunting with sleeves.0 -
They look trashy on some women, I find it pretty cool on men though, I just don't see why you would cover up the female form with doodles...
Part of it is a cultural thing. I probably would never have gotten a tattoo if I wasn't living in a place where everybody had one.0 -
Eh tattoo's are ok, don't make or break for me.
I prefer women with their leg hiked up on there counter.0 -
If you like them then does it really matter?0
-
Tattoos do not create nor destroy hotness...0
-
depends on the person and the tattoo i guess, but generally not. my views on tattoos are they should have some personal meaning behind them considering they'll probably look like hell when once your older, but to each their own0

I agree with you on that. My husband has a funny story about when he was hired. He has a sleeve, but wore a suit when he was interviewed for a state government position. After he was hired, and after his 90-day probationary period, he wore short sleeves for the first time. His boss admitted that if she saw that during the interview, she wouldn't have hired him, even though she also admitted that he's one of the best workers she's ever had.0 -
I adore sleeves!
If they were more so accepted in the realm of professional professions, I would totally get 2 sleeves. :c
Totally hot.0 -

They're a lot more accepted than most people realize. I have two full sleeves and work in an office. I only wear long sleeve shirts when I have meetings with the CEO and stuff like that. When I'm in the office normally, short sleeves all day every day.0 -
I suppose it depends on the person and the tat...0

Yes, I love nature also and most of mine are dealing with nature, but I do have some that aren't nature too. I have a lion (I'm a Leo), a dog paw with an angel's halo and wings, St Louis Cardinals tattoo and tazmanian devil (that was my nickname back in highschool and is still my favorite cartoon character ever). The rest of mine are all flowers and such.
My next 2 tattoos are going to be a bumble bee, a lady bug and I am going to start a chest / quarter sleeve that will intail butterflies, humming birds and flowers.0 -

That right there is a sexist remark if I have ever saw one. To each his / her own.
I love my tattoos and my husband has started getting them too. It gets quite expensive when you have two people in the house getting them at the same time, LOL0 -
Depends on how they are done, I have 7 tats(No sleeves or big peices) and they are all on the girly side(Granted I was 19 and went on a tat spree) I really think it depends on the quality and how you wear them.0

I don't want any for myself. I've always been scared of needles and permanence freaks me out. The thought of drawing a picture on my body that will be there the rest of my life just doesn't appeal to me. I don't judge other people with them though, like 99% of people get them these days. I will say when I see hot women with full sleeves or like their entire thigh covered or something it kind of intimidates me for some reason. We might have a lot in common and really get a long but I probably won't come talk to you. I guess it's not you it's me...0

Tattoos - A permanent reminder of a temporary feeling.
I completely disagree. My tattos are about my Irish heritage AND the most important one is for Autsim awareness, because one of the most important people in my life is Autistic and I am his advocate and he calls me mom. That is not a temporary feeling and people ask about it and get an education on autism!0 -
Love women with tattoos, as long as you like the look, who cares what others think.0
-
to each their own. I don't have any. Have always considered it. On the other hand, I have friends who have ink on their faces/necks, forearms and can't figure out why they are discriminated against in employment. Not that discrimination is ok, but it's definitely a consideration given the culture of business.0
-
I find women with no tattoos and women covered equally hot. There is beauty in simplicity and natural untouched skin, and beauty in a woman covered who expresses their life and stories on their body. As long as they are unique and don't follow trends just to follow the masses I think that is more "hot" than anything. Independence and confidence is intoxicating.0
-
Does anyone wish they never got them? Or at least a particular one or two? If I had gotten some when I was 18 I'd probably have an assortment of things that don't really reflect who I am today. My friend literally has a sun wearing those joke disguise glasses with a mustache and a banana nose on his shoulder. It's completely ridiculous. He got it drunk when he was 19 and swears he doesn't regret getting it.0

In my (Orthodox Christian) church, it is a sin to have a tattoo, partly because people are made by God in His image and tattoos are seen as a turning away from that image. Another reason is that, historically, tattoos have been used as part of the religious practice of non-Christian cultures. These types of tattoos are still around today. Tattoos can also be used to signal a group membership, as in gang tattoos. I have a sense that there is a division in modern American culture. Some 20% or so of the population reject the idea of tattoos out of hand, and may even be somewhat prejudiced against people who have tattoos as being "lower class". The rest are are indifferent or more or less open to tattoos.
Are they "hot" or not? My thought is that "hotness", the sense of physical attractiveness, is in the eye of the beholder. It is part "nature" and part "nurture". The nature part is basic human nature, fundamental sexual desire, which I doubt has muct to do with tattoos. The nurture part is what we learn in some way, thinking redheads are hot or that glasses are a turnoff. I would think that tattoos would fall into that category, so that someone who has them would find people with a range of feeling.
I am, pretty obviously, not pro tattoo. My feelings are: I have never seen a tattoo which I thought made someone look more attractive. When I see someone with extensive tattoos, I feel sorry for them.0 -
Yeah not for me... My wife is off and on about wanting one but that is really the only thing I've ever absolutely denied her. Anything else is hers to the point of spoiling :happy: She had a belly button piercing when I met her and I always hated it. Eventually when she got older and out of college she removed it and now dislikes how it kind of ruined her belly button. I don't say "I told you so" but still.0
