Tatoo free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not have a tatoo. I have no desire for one. I will never get one.I think some tatoos are true art work. I have nothing AGAINST tatoos or the desire for them (need to say this just in case the tatood people get up in arms).

I guess I just think that the human body is beautiful just as it is. A photographer friend of mine once said "a beautiful woman is her own accessory...clothing and jewellry should complement her..but not take focus from her". When I see a woman with a tatoo I'm more inclined to notice her ink first (maybee that's what she wants??? dunno). I guess I want people to notice ME..not my adornments.

    I always liked the statement that you wouldn't put a bumper sticker on a Bently and tattoos are the same idea..

    That being said I do want one small tattoo on my wrist. Its the first line of the Desiderata. Its a poem my mom gave me when I first moved out on my own and its very much how i try to live my life. everyone should check it out :o)

    So she told me when I reach my goal weight she will pay for it.

    It will say "Go placidly amidst the noise and haste" in her handwriting. :o)

    I have one got it at 31, and if you would of asked me to get one, up until I actually did, I would have said your crazy. When I lost most of my weight I wanted to do something I never would have done...that was it. Make no mistake I didn't do it on a whim, and it was thought out. I placed it in a place I could cover it up when appropriate and also where I can show it. It has meaning to me, and it's something I can live with. Just learned in life never say never, but I get what you mean. Its not for everyone and that's just fine :)

    Good thing you don't want one....because if you asked for a 'tatoo' they might not know what you're talking about. It's TATTOO. :) Yeah, I have 2 and love them!

    First, lets get the spelling right . . . its TATTOO
    second . . . nobody out there is getting a tattoo because they are worried about what YOU will think of them
    third . . .tattoos MEAN SOMETHING to those who choose to get them
    fourth . . . tattoos (done well) on either sex are hot and no one will ever convince me otherwise

    I don't have any TATTOOS either, but I'm not sure about the point of this topic.

  • I am 47 and have multiple tattoos. I love them and plan on getting more. I don't judge those who don't have tattoos because I think it's personal choice. People either like them or don't. I don't understand why a forum topic needs to be related or this...but that's just my 2 cents worth.

    I have two to honor a very special person in my life; a small one on my nape, and a large one on my leg, and I don't care whether you like it or not. Thanks for your input though. They're not about or for you.

    Sounds like a Vent- which I like! I have zero, don't really see the point, the human body is beautiful as it is, needs nothing, ladies should stay classy. it's a fad, so much more but I'm quitting now. all of this is my opinion only. my age- 38

    What's that good ol' saying? The only difference between tattooed and non-tattooed people is that tattooed
    people don't mind if you're not tattooed.

    ^This.

    If you don't want one, then don't get one. Plain and simple. You are obviously looking for a fight and to stir something up. Grow up. I've got 10 tattoos and have about another 10 planned. I am damned proud of my tattoos and love every single one. It's a personal choice and I don't need the likes of YOU judging me on MY life choices.

    Is a woman's body beautiful on it's own? Absolutely. But when you add a gorgeous tattoo that has a meaning to that woman, it makes her 100 times more beautiful.

    I don't agree with your opinion, but I can respect it. But damn, ya'll. The rest of you need to call the hell down. Really no need to be rude about it. Yes, there was no point to the post other than her expressing her views, but still. There's also not much of a point to a post that says "I love tattoos! I think they're awesome and beautiful and I can respect people who don't have them, but I just think it looks better when people do."

    So. You know. Everyone be cool.

    Exactly.

    For some reason I thought the title of this thread was supposed to be "tobacco free!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" but the OP made a typo. I was going to congratulate you but...no.

    Couple of things

    1) This post is kinda pointless but then again, theres a bunch of them that are
    2) I think you ARE trying to say in hidden words that you feel superior against women who have tattoos
    3) And this is directed towards women attacking/will be attacking the OP. There have been similar threads where women were praising their ink. Don't see anything wrong with praising lack of ink either though the OP should have chosen better words

    tl;dr: Get off the forums and go outside and workout. FFS you people need better hobbies than lurking around the forums attacking each other....take up boxing or something man

    ^^^This exactly! In fact my sister owns a tattoo studio and has a sign that reads just like this hanging in her lobby.

    Go on OP, keep judging . . .

    Oh get a life. What are you getting out of posting something like this?

    "I have nothing against tattoos but I think they are dumb lolz" Whatever chick. You're trying to start something and you know it.
