Picture of your tattoo(s)

GEISHA *why?* because I feel as woman, we have our traditional duties to perform in a relationship!

:noway: I have nothing against your tattoo, but wow, that way of thinking just set back women's liberation by 20 years.

I disagree. No shame in taking care of your man. Warm meals. A clean home. Open loving arms always. I think its a beautiful thing. Feminism is killing our true power....our femininity! Chivalry is dead and women killed it.

There's a difference between love and subservience. Relationships should be partnerships, not dictatorships. I don't see any beauty in putting restrictions on people's freedoms based on what's "socially accepted." Chivalry was a movement that spread the message that women NEEDED men and couldn't be independent. Good riddance. Feminism is the empowerment of women, who have been oppressed since "man" domesticated animals.

I definitely disagree but whatever makes you happy. I'm never oppressed hes always chivalrous. We care for each other in traditional gender roles without a dictatorship. But if feminism brings you confidence and joy that's great also! Like attracts like. I'm just old fashioned in some ways (:

This is my first tattoo just after I got it done


This was my second tattoo that I got the tattoo artist to design and took 4 1/2 hours non stop, was all worth it!

You're a bleeder Haha! Hope your artist isn't a dry wiper!

My only complaint with tattoos is 98% of people don't thoroughly research their artist and end up with blown out/faded/bleeding lines and hideous cheap looking tattoos. Its sad. Gives the real artists a bad reputation. This truly can be art when done cerrectly

I agree! My back needs to be touched up, due to stretch marks. But the same guy did my back and my arm... I have a hard time going to anyone else. P.s. I've made the mistake of not researching... My Lower back is a perfect example....boo.

Haha I also have a terrible tramp stamp! Young and stupid. Thank goodness I found a good cover up artist!

Lol maybe one day I will too! I'm a total tattoo snob now but I'll admit, I was young and stupid. I got it for my mom... So, I might just keep it. I've now been going to the same artist for about 10ish years.

Btw your back piece is pretty awesome.

As is yours. I love a beautiful quarter sleeve on women! The permanent accessory (:

Here's my sleeve...

ALSO, @dawn. I love your back tattoo!

Thanks!:)

Oh, they are all so beautiful. Some look outrageously painful. I love tattoos on other people, not on me. I'm a coward. The only thing that I can say that was painful to get done were my nipple rings and that was the stupidest thing I have done in my life. I was too young and too stupid.

amazing tatts

I actually fell asleep while mine was being done. They're not always that painful.

Sorry, call me Old Schooled, but I enjoy making my men feel superior! I do believe in equality in the WORKPLACE, but i also still believe in traditional female roles. (Not necessarily pampering them every growl, but making them feel like their woman is happy to have you. By the way, I believe in the saying "treat your man good, or he'll find someone to do it for you". Can I get an AMEN? (*joking XD)

You can't pick and choose rights. If you're not equal first and foremost at home, you can't expect to be treated with equality and respect anywhere else. I haven't seen any mention of how you're being "taken care of" in that relationship. I just really hope you believe and respect yourself enough to realize you deserve AND are worth so much more than the position of "girlfriend" or "wife." :flowerforyou:

Anyway, I'm sorry to everyone who posted beautiful tattoos from taking away from the original topic!

Chivalry is completely OUTRAGEOUS. I'm sorry, but what's wrong with common courtesy for everyone? I take so much pride in being a feminist, and being independent. I agree with what you're saying.

And, to the OP, you can be a feminist and still be a stay at home kind of gal.

I think the thing you are missing is that both parties are looking after each other in their own way. I think it's great. I am far from chauvinistic but I do love it when a girl appreciates slightly more traditional roles.

There is no denying that physically men and women are different but we are also mentally different. As a man I love being the protector. I love when we are walking through somewhere a bit dodgy that my girl would want to cuddle up to me and get under my arm because she feels safer there.

I don't expect that I will go earn the money and she will cook and clean, but if there is a balance of activities then the more physical activities will naturally sway my way. If there is a house to clean and the tonne of gravel we just ordered to be shovelled onto the drive, I will assume to do the shovelling whiles she cleans. When her car breaks down, she calls me to look at it. It's just simple logic, it's not anti-feminism. It's just realising that men and women are wired differently, and those two can really complement each other perfectly.

I agree with this. I think its great to bring different, complimentary things to a relationship. I have strengths to bring to the table both because I'm a woman and an individual. I agree with the other poster above - I'm certainly more attracted to bigger, stronger guys as that's what I want them to bring to the table - protection and safety - amongst other things. That's not to say, I can't look after myself, I can, but I *really* appreciate that quality in a gentleman. That and competence. Competence is key!
