    I got a tattoo on my lower back when I was 18 years old because I thought it was a nice place to put one. The term "tramp stamp" wasn't around then, or if it was, I didn't know about it. I still love my tattoo, but hate the fact that thsi term is associated with it. :(

    Every tattoo will bring back some memory in life.

    My tattoo is for me and no one else, so I really dont care what anyone else thinks. If you choose not to like me or hang out with me because I have a "tramp stamp", thats your loss!

    I've got 21 tattoos - I love them and I have 4 on my back, with more planned.

    Tats can be classy or not, they are art and it's beauty in the eye of the beholder.

    I think lower back tattoos tend to look trashy not because of the tattoo but because of the kind of clothing that is often worn in order to show off that tattoo

    I slightly agree with this. I have one, I don't think its trashy. I love it and although it doesn't have any meaning (that I know of) I think its a nice piece of art. HOWEVER, I have NEVER worn clothes to try to show it off.

    I don't really understand having one on your lower back, to me if I had a tattoo I would have it out most of the time so somewhere that is visible otherwise I don't really get the point in it, how often do you have your lower back on display, unless you wear really short crop tops and mega low slung jeans, which isn't a very classy look,

    Two of my three daughters have lower back tattoos. While I am not necessarily a fan, neither one is a tramp. All three girls have class. They didn't ask my permission and they did not need it.

    Isn't the whole process of getting a tattoo to express yourself and show your independence?

    It means something to them and they mean the world to me, so I (and they) don't really give a *kitten* what others think.

    My first tattoo was on my lower back. It is 3 words in Latin (I studied Latin for 10 years) and a rose. Simple, meaningful, and classy.

    If you took a look at my profession (computer nerd) you wouldn't think that = tramp.
    If you look at my wardrobe, mostly business attire, probably not "trashy"
    If you look at my personal life, happily married for 11 years and proud soccer mom of 4, that probably also doesn't scream TRAMP.
    If you look at my tattoos and think wow what a hooch, well then so be it.
    My tattoos mean something to me. I like them, and I didn't get them for anyone but myself!

    **also I rarely show off my "tramp stamp" maybe it may be visible in my swim suit, but not always. It was probably visible while I was doing the back walkover in my profile :-) My foot tattoo is much more visible.

    I have "Carpe Diem" tattooed on my lower back. I was 18 when I got it, I'm 32 now. Would I go out tomorrow and get it done if I hadn't already had it? No. Does it bother me that I did get it? No, not at all. It makes me smile about my youthful optimism. I'd like to think that it's a little more classy than some of the lower back tatts that I've seen, but i guess everyone views tattoos differently.
