    I think this relates to the person, it all reflects on you and what you feel comfortable with. I show my tattoos off because of 1. my weight loss and 2. because they are always a conversation starter with people. My fiancée doesn't because they are for her and me.
    As someone relatively heavily tattooed if you don't have tattoos it won't stop me talking to you, just like me having tattoos shouldn't stop you talking to me. We're in the 21st century now, its time we moved a bit further on from judging people on they physical appearance.

    No tattoos no piercings (not even my ears). Just never got around to it. Meh. I'm 32, why ruin the streak?

    Wish I could remember which comedian said this...
    "That cute little dolphin tattoo on a young girl will turn into a Beluga whale when she gets old".
    Reason enough for me ????

    I am ink free. As a musician, it is quite unusual to have no tattoos. Personally, I like them on other people, but not on me. That's ok though, to each their own and no judgment for anybody!

    It is fine to have or have not ink. It is not fine to give a crap what society thinks. Screw 'em, it's your body!

    I think it can be great or awful. Does it mean something personal to you? I have personally never found something I wanted to put on my body that I knew I would never outgrow. So I am a blank canvas.

    I say to each their own.

    I am a blank canvas, but I am too indecisive, and a wimp with needles.

    Sometimes I'm scared to admit it because I'm afraid of being judged.


    lions do not concern themselves with the opinions of sheep.


    ....^This line has officially changed my life. Thank you.

    Do what makes you, you.

    I am naked of tattoos other than for medical reasons.

    My brother is a tattoo artist and literally completely cover from head to toe.

    Although he gets some weird looks in the retirement town he lives in, we literally get treated the same by society because we are out true selves.
