    My ex told me he would never have a wife with a tattoo. I got a tattoo and then lost the ex. Best decision I ever made.

    I don't have a negative tattoo view (oh, that rhymed) but there is nothing that is more of a disappointment when you see a beautiful woman in a wedding/bridesmaid dress and she has some tattoo that sticks out like a sore thumb on her back/chest/leg, etc.

    I did it!! Went today and got a small hummingbird for my Granny. She passed 18 months ago and was more like a mom to me. She loved hummingbirds and she was a little thing herself. I know she would fully support this because she had a tattoo on her upper thigh for 71 years!

    I love tasteful tattoos on anyone. I think they tell a part of a person's story, just like scars or laugh lines. I like to think that my tattoos help weed out a portion of men that wouldn't understand me once they got to know me. If they can see past my tats, chances are we already have a few things in common. It's kinda cool. :-P I get lots of "looks" from people in general but I don't care. I am who I am and I don't make any apologies for that. :) Tattoos on men, now....that's a requirement for hotness! :P

    :heart: It's a beautiful tribute, and I think it's so cute that your Granny had a tattoo!

    People always say "What'll you tell your grandkids?" but I never thought any less of my grandfather for having one. I never asked why he had it. It was just part of who he was. I also never knew WHAT it was, since it was quite faded by the time I was born! (Native American girl, btw.)

    Thank you Lorina! My grandfather (Popeye) had tattoos on his arm, but when he had skin cancer he had them removed. I remember as a little girl he had a naked lady on his arm and it made me giggle, but I never thought anything bad about him. Don't all sailors have tattoos? lol

    I like them on men for sure :) My hubby has been talking about getting one on his back but he has yet to work up the nerve, he is not fond of needles.

    I have the typical tramp stamp on my back, got it when I was 19 and spend 95% of my life drunk and passed out on someones floor.

    I now have 5 children and everyone wants to know what I will do when one of my kids wants to get a tattoo and my answer is always the same "When they are old enough they can do what ever they want". I am not ashamed of my tat although I will not be getting any more.

    I think tattoos are very sexy! i love them! I'm not saying someone without tattoo's isn't but i find them very attactive!

    I have 6 myself and love every one of them. only my first two dont have any real meaning and i got these as soon as i hit 18... dont regret them but they just dont have any real meaning. my other ones are mostly dedicared to family members. i have one on my ribs which is dedicated to my grandad who passed away 3 years ago. i have one on my foot which doesn't look meaningful but each star is my family members.
    i have one my shoulder which is matching with my little brother!
    and the one around my wrist i got just after my husband and i split it says "everything happens for a reason"

    so as i was saying I LOVE TATTOOS!! but each to their own... i dont judge those who dont have tattoos and hope not to be judge by having them (even though i know i will be ... doesn't bother me)

    I have tattoos that you really can't see unless I am wearing a tank top and shorts, being in "corporate America" I have to be a tad conservative with my ink. Most of my tattoos are on my back (no "tramp stamp") but I have a large tattoo on my foot & on the inside of my calf.

    My SO doesn't care for tattoos but he tolerates mine lol

    I love them on men and women. I especially like them when they are meaningful, not just a cute picture someone saw. I have several and they all mean something to me. My "Reach my Goal" reward is a new half sleeve on my left arm, it will have to include some aready there. I know I want my daddy's portrait in it somewhere, I sure miss him! I have time to really think about it before that comes.

    I love tattoos, I have lots well maybe not lots just covered lots of my body. My thoughts on guys with tattoos is yummy. I love the tatted look on a man. I am a business woman during the day and on my off time from work I ride a Harley and show my tatts proud. you would never guess by my appearance that I am a tattoo freak. Small large and full sleeves go with what you want, its your body and you have to make that choice. and if someone doesn't like it well that is their opinion, everyone has one and is entitled to them. I don't think people should judge or criticize a person if they choose to be tatted.

    I have several, as does my husband. If they are tasteful and look nice then I love them. All of mine can be covered if necessary (ie: work) and each one marks a special time in my life and is meaningful! They are addictive! I'm currently craving a new one!

    In my opinion the more tattoos the better...as long as they are done well by true artists and not "scratchers." I'm a firm believer of you get what you pay for. My boyfriend of 5 years is what I call a throat to toes tattooed fella and it's ridiculously sexy and I tend to be much more attracted to heavily tattooed men. In fact I plan to be fully covered as well so long as my career continues to permit and I can't wait for the day that I complete a body suit. I figure we're all going to look worn and torn by the time we're 85 anyways (but with killer abs thanks to MFP), and i'll just be happy to still be alive if I can be so lucky, let alone worry about how my tattoos age.

    what irritates me is people who go to amateurs and get a whole bunch of generic meaningless tats and think they're cool

    "Good tattoos aren't cheap. Cheap tattoos aren't any good."

    So to all peeps out there that are thinking about getting tats....keep that phrase in mind!

    This is a brilliant line. When I got my fourth tattoo (which is my largest so far) I was in love with the tattoo, then I heard the price tag. Got it minimized a bit, but still $350.00 later I'm in love with it and get lots of compliments on the line work and shading. It's all what you pay for. And I will be doing LOTS of research for an artist when I have the funds to get my sleeve started.

    I :heart: my ink and what it represents to me after beating cancer twice, a major illness and raising a son with Autsim.

    I wake up everyday and see the beauty of my colors and am reminded at how lucky I am to have a new day!

    To each his/her own though!

    :happy:

    I :heart: tats on guys.
    however, I cannot stand sleeve tats--esp if they're in vibrant colors.

    DH has one tat, & wants another. I'd like to get 1 or 2 also.
    But not until I am closer to my goal weight.
