I met a woman in high school or college who had survived the Nazi concentration camps and she had her prisoner number tattooed on her arm. I never asked her about it. It was rather unnerving seeing that.
Not much has changed really.
Criminals and sailors in the United States until about the 1980’s.
As I see it, tattoos are a form of graffiti. It disgusts me that so many young and otherwise beautiful women ruin their appearances with tattoos.
Nah, I still hate tramp stamps.
I don’t care for this trend of extensive tattoos particularly on women. Nose piercings are even worse. I can overlook very small tattoos on a women but not really a fan of body art.
Same as Japan. Loops around the wrist for stealing, marks to the face or neck for worse.
It’s not like a gang member criminal today would be stupid enough to have tattoos on their necks and faces that identify them.
Would they?
We are vendors at the Salado, TX farmers market every weekend.
It’s different. Lots of ponytails and tatts.
Except the ponytails are on the guys, and the tatts are on the gals.
I have female family members with large tattoos...have NEVER asked to see them, or asked why they got them. Totally ignore them. And dislike them.
Tattoos Were for Criminals
...and hog rings were for hogs
Here’s Twilight Zone idea if they make another reboot.
Bill and Hillary, Obama and Michelle, Schumer, Pelosi, Schiff, the Black Caucus, Liz Warren ,Merrick Garland, Brennan, Comey and the leftist news media all start to have faint tattoos on their faces.
Then more and more obvious and vivid ones that eat through their attempts to hide them under heavy makeup.
Their crimes and treason are written out in black ink and then prison bars cover their facial features.
They are insatiably hungry but always nauseous when they eat anything other than crow.
Have a young female relative who has starting to shack up with her boyfriend who works at his dad’s tattoo parlor. She just had a small one at 18. Now I am told she has several on her arms. I am sure she thinks it is her “right”. If she marries someone else, the guy is going to know the tattoos were from a prior boyfriend and he will have to look at them everyday they are married. Most likely restricts her choices going forward. I want to ask her if she has been branded “Circle K” on her hind end.
Saw a late 30’s female at a water park with “Eddie” tattooed around her belly button.
Our four kids, 2 of each, all adults have matching tattoos as a sign of sibling unity.
The girls have them on their ankles so they’re unobtrusive. While I don’t want to join in, I think they’re ok because of what they represent.
Beware of Greeks wearing tatoos
I believe that somewhere in the first five books of the Bible there is the prohibition against tatooing.
I met a woman in high school or college who had survived the Nazi concentration camps and she had her prisoner number tattooed on her arm. I never asked her about it. It was rather unnerving seeing that.
They were for trashy people in my day, I still look on tattooed women as near prostitutes.
Tattooed women shrink their dating pool by over 50%.
