Tattoos and piercings?!

I hate tattoos :-P

I have 4 tattoos and they all have a special meaning to me. Never had a desire to get a piercing.

I admire ink on others. Love to hear stories behind it. I have two half sleeves and in the missile of a chest piece now.

Love tattooos! got a bunch planned. Piercings not so much on myself and on guys... Tattoed men are a big turn on though

I love piercings and tattoos!!! I have two tattoos (so far). Five piercings in my left ear (just got three for my birthday) and 3 in my right ear (will be getting my forward helix done, so then it'll be 4), my nose and my bellybutton.

How you doin??

When I was young, I thought tattoos were stupid. I thought they were silly little mementos, and I couldn't understand why someone would want to put that on their body, permanently, when there's no way to tell if you'd be happy with it 20 years later. I felt similarly about body piercings that I personally considered 'excessive'.

In high school, I started realizing that I was attracted to that. Girls with tattoos, or facial piercings. I couldn't quite understand why, either. I certainly didn't want any for myself, though.

A few years afterward, I started to realize how introverted I'd been my entire life, how little exploration I'd done into myself, who I was, what style spoke to me, and ultimately how horribly that has affected my development as a person. I figured out that I was so attracted to these girls who were so "vocal" with their appearance because self-expression was ****ing beautiful and amazing, and most of all, I was wishing I could be just as expressive.

I'm doing my best now to become that person, though. It's a slow process, but the idea of coming up with a piece of art that can tell a little bit of who I am is really, really enticing, now. I have no idea what I want, yet, but some small white-ink designs have been really amazing and I'll probably incorporate some of that into it. All I know is that I'd like it moderate in size, and either on my chest or my back.

I think tattoos that are a reflection of the person can be incredibly lovely and even sexy. Unless tattoos are obscuring the majority of one's body (namely the face), or they're turning their skin into chainmail armor with layers of piercings, I don't think I'd be overtly put off. I can definitely be turned off by excess, but in the end I respect and acknowledge the right of others to live however the **** they please, and I will be happy for them that they're choosing to do so.

i absolutely love tattoos and find them very attractive on others. piercings not so much, but i have nothing against them.

tattoos: 5 so far, and more to come. so far, right arm half sleeve, left arm quarter sleeve, lower back, down my side (ribs to hip)
piercings: nothing too crazy, just my nose, navel, and ears.

I have 16 tattoos, 13 piercings(6 in each ear and 1 in my nose), and hoping to get more of both. have a list of locations and ideas for both the tattoos and piercings.

2 tats and planning piercing ...

Yep. I have full sleeves, the side of my head, behind my ears, a chestpiece, a full back piece (outlined and in progress), front of my thighs and back of my calves. Doing my knees next.

thats so amazing !!!!!

Thanks! Hoping to get my hands done this winter, too.

I have one tat on my arm, which I love, and which I got last year, now that I'm middle aged. I'm going to be getting more, slowly, but I want them all to mean things so I have to live with the ideas for a bit before I get the ink.

3 tattoos. One on my ankle, the other 2 on my right shoulder. My last one was just a couple months ago & I already have tbe "itch" again. Guess it's because I gound a great artist. ... which makes ALL the difference!!!

I have 13 piercings... 11 of them in my ears.
