    I have one that was done by my ex. I regret it a bit, and hope that one day I have money to get it covered with something better. It's inbetween my shoulderblades and no one can see it unless I wear a tanktop.

    I personally don't have any, but I think if someone likes them they should be able to have as many as they want.

    I have 9. They are a chronicle of my journey through life. I either drew them or helped design each. They represent parts of my life.
    I only regret one because its going to cost a hell of a lot to fix and it on both of my calfs. *sigh* I designed it myself, was very proud of it, let a dumba$$ wannabe try to tattoo it. Learned a valuable lesson.

    I don't really care what other people are going to think of my tattoos when I'm older. None of mine are offensive or vulgar, they are pieces of art.

    In my tattoo artists parlor is a quote " a cheap tattoo is not a good tattoo. And a good tattoo is not a cheap tattoo." maybe justification for charging a lot But I took that assurance.

    My first tat btw is a stargazer Lily. I grew it. I photographed it. And it's in a place that only shows in a bikini. Personally highly significant and highly personal. .

    Stargazer Lily, Had to look that up, Nice!
    I afraid I'm not very sentimental and probably boring, like one person said. lol
    But I'm happy, and that to me is what matters.

    This was the second part of my sleeve tattoo. I don't have a picture of the sleeve fully healed. I need to take one. I could care less of what people think of MY tattoo. If people judge me by what's on my arm or for that matter the rest of my body-- they don't need to be apart of my life anyway. They always say "don't judge a book by its cover".
    Why judge me for decorating my cover?
    I wish some could see past the tattoos but if they can't, I feel like that says more about that person than About me.

    I see some that are awesome and others that are awful. At my age they were more associated with sailors that got drunk unlike they are today :)

    I might be wrong in my thinking BUT....

    Ive always loved art so Tattoos tell a story & providing they are done by a skilled artist will look great, but even if they don't look great it's about what it means to the individual. Mine are custom designed between me & my Tattooist, can't see me ever regretting them because so much time & effort went into them. I fear some of the younger people may regret them in the future if it's been done for reasons of fashion rather than meaning!

    That's just my humble opinion though!

    I personally think women look great with ink... (I'm a big fan of thigh pieces) ..but again it has to be done well, men can get away with bad tattoos a lot easier than women!

    Anyone who has one is braver than I am, because I hate needles with a fiery burning passion. I am also much too fickle to ever decide on something I'd want to have forever.

    Here is my take on tatoos: Some people have them and others don't. I fall somewhere in-between. I do not have any tatoos, but I am not opposed to them. I respect the thought of them symbolizing an important event in someones life. Just do not call them 'skin art', then I have that whole Hanabal Lecter thing going on and visions of skin lamb shades (shudder).

    I had 7, now I have 5. I wish I had never put them on me. Here's the funny part of this, since I started getting them taken off I get a lot of people with tattoos, lecturing me......scratch that TRYING to lecture me. Its comical, one kid acted like I had betrayed some sort of brotherhood, ridiculous! If you want tats, get them, if you don't, then don't get them but if you make a mistake then pay to get them off or live with it.

    No tats, but I why would people care what others are doing to their bodies? Some tats will take you out of some career positions and not others. It's a consequence of getting a visible tattoo. However, your body is YOUR temple...do as you wish!
