    I think they are great expressions of who you are. My wife "says" she doesn't like mine, but she stares at it with googlie eyes when I don't have a shirt on. So either she does like it, or she thinks I'm a big idiot. It probably depends on the day and what I have done. :)

    Makes me feel old. I don't get it at all. I don't like 'em. But, lots of them around, so I am learning to ignore them.

    Moar tats!

    Chicks w/ tatt'd knuckles rule.

    Agree. My favorite retired stripper (she's having a baby) is a sexy little pixie of a thing and she has the hottest knuckle tattoos!!

    Tres sexy! I have a half sleeve and am working on more. I love them and feel sexier with them. Also ups the attraction factor on anyone who has them. My girl loves them too. ;)

    It depends on the tattoo, the person, the location...

    They can be sexy as hell, but the wrong tattoo in the right location can still be a no-no.

    Tattoos should match personality.

    Personally I have all of mine hidden away so they can't be noticed under regular clothing.

    Sexy! As long as it's not too over done and all over the body. I have 2 tattoos, butterflies on my foot and a cancer ribbon intertwined with flowers on my wrist. My boyfriend has a tribal tattoo on his calf....it's sexxy as hell!!!

    I love them! I have three. The guy I'm seeing now is the first guy I've ever dated that didn't have any. It kind of weirds me out. That said I've seen some pretty awful tattoos. I definitely prefer none to bad.

    Amen to that.

    I have a hardcore ink kink. I love tattoos. I have one, I want half sleeves or a pretty decently sized back piece, but that all is on the back burner until I hit my GW.

    I did see a tattoo over a mastectomy scar, made me cry, so beautiful.

    Wow that is beautiful!!!!!!

    My mother in law had a mastectomy and had a big pink ribbon done on her side...she did have reconstructive surgery and implants.

    Sexy indeed.. :love: ;) When the artwork is unique, and on a guy, over a nice arm muscle etc, especially appealing...but even a dude who is either really skinny, or a bigger guy, tatts as long as they are well done totally can add to the appeal!!!!! ...my man does NOT have any ink..... which is actually suprising for me cause most guys i'm attracted to DO... but if he ever gets one... he will be in trouble... :blushing: ;) .......

    I have 5 myself.... under both wrists, ankle, top of foot, and upper back...when I get to weight goals... i can forsee more... ;)

    Sexy on men if not too many

    bf has one on his upper right arm, tribal and it just "does" something for me (strange?)
    he has a hammerhead shark on the back of his left calf that I think is awesome but doesn't "do" anything for me lol

    on women, can be sexy but when women have them all over I think it looks trashy JMO, I have 2, one on each leg.

    I love tattoo's. I think they can be sexy on guys and girls. I have six of them. However, if they are not done properly they can look gross and trashy. And I hate just about all tattoo's on the face and the front of your neck. But to each there own, I would never judge anyone because of there choice.

    Anywhere but the face. Sorry, I dont find that appealing on guys or girls. Arms fine, legs fine, shoulders, lower back, fine..

    As I think about it, I'm not sure what I think about chest tats on a girl.... would depend on the girl and the tat I guess.

    I don't have any now but have plans for a couple. Arm, shoulder.

    Very sexy. My favorite place to see them is on guys backs, but honestly I like them anywhere. I have six myself and plans to add several more when time & money permits.

    Haha....considering I have a full sleeve, a half sleeve, a chest piece, and a rib piece, I would hope someone considers them sexy.

    Tattoos are sexy!! I have three myself. They are a great way of personal expression, and add another layer to someone. :)

    i think it depends on the art..some look trashy..other just wonderful pieces of art. But at the end of the day..its more the reason behind the ink that I am interested in..

    I have 7..and they have been a timeline of my life...I dont care what others think about them..cause they are mine..all mine..

    ^^^ Agreed! Ditto for me! My most recent one is on the inside of my left wrist....I love it and it is very personal to me

    I think theu're sexy depending on what style. My hubby has 15! I see it as art and Who cares of when they are old and wrinkled it doesn't look as good! You only live once so live the way you want and express yourself.

    I've heard about that. I even have one around the corner from where I work. To remove one of my tattoos would be a denial of who I was when I got it.
