Sad to see otherwise attractive females with trashy tattoos.

Tattoos are scars.

In the South, they’re called tramp stamps.

yes!! we have a cute neighbor lady with tattoos of her childs handprints on her chest. WTH? that is crazy to me.
Open a laser surgery tattoo removal clinic in 10 years or so and you should make bank.
PS I am not anti tattoo, i just think it has gone overboard.

I’ve heard that a tattoo on the lower back of a girl is the tramp stamp. Just saying.

Walk into a store in CA and half the woman have these gawdy tattoos...It’s like the carnival arrived and town and never left. Carnival workers seem to be everywhere.

I like the one’s that say, “In memory of blabla” as if anyone knows who blabla is. Or they put their last name across their back...And the insect tattoos...WTF is up with that?

Yup. I say pretty regularly, “Good grief. She was hot before the tattoos. Why’d she go and mess it up?”

What might work better would be to sell devices that emit the same sort of wavelength to break down tattoo ink but can be put on the skin for several hours each night as someone sleeps.

The thing about tattoos is they don’t age well. Bad enough at 40 or 50 but imagine what they will look like with the paper thin, wrinkled skin of a senior

Won’t date chicks with any tattoo. Period. Sign of dissatisfaction with self. I’ve got other priorities, like building a business. They’re headed for a strict religious cult. Or worse.

Not sure what happened to women, but too many have no anchor in reality. I’m not picking up the tab.

Good article. America is devolving into an uncivilized tribal culture. Tatoos are an amalgam of statements about beliefs, phobias, fears, hopes, wishes and aspirations...all centered on what WE feel and what WE believe. They’re the superstitions of modern society. At one time it was understood that we don’t NEED external markers and symbols to make things happen or to express our “selves”. It was understood that God’s ways too priority and that we should decrease ourselves in order to increase Him.

They used to tattoo slaves, which is fitting seeing that if you see someone with a lot of tattoos they are usually the sort of person in my experience that loves big government socialism.

Now that Angelina is divorced from Billy Bob for a long time, I wonder what she ( and Brad ) think of the tattoo



And here's another question --- is there a way of taking a tattoo off if you regret having it without leaving scars?

If I were dating, it would definitely let me know who to cross right off my list. Nothing says “stupid” quite like a tattoo.

Tattoos, body piercing & those ridiculous nose rings...I just don’t get why people would marr their bodies. Not attractive at all. Total turn off.
