    I think there is still a negative stigma associated with lots of ink (especially on women). As much as we'd like to think we don't judge others from appearance, we do whether it is conscious or not. I believe others will see a woman or man with tattoos and might feel intimidated. Although they have become much more socially acceptable, they aren't quite the norm yet. I imagine they won't be for while. That being said... I can't wait to get my next :)

    I have a tattoo scheduled in a month. I've selected its placement very carefully because I don't want to be judged by strangers.

    I admit, I do think that people who choose easily visible art are more ballsy than I am.....I'm not against tattoos being visible by any means, but I'd never choose one that was easily visible for myself. I just don't have the guts.
