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.
I’ve spent several days this week at beaches in Italy... and I think the problem of “hideous tattoos” is even worse among Italians than Americans. It’s really tragic to see an attractive young woman who has defaced her body with “sleeves”, spiderwebs etc etc. In my entire life, I’ve never once seen a woman whose appearance was improved by her tattoos. Not once. It’s always a net loss, though the margins vary.
