“Who wants to start a family with a woman with so many tattoos you can’t see their skin?”
Amen to that, I joined the Navy in ‘62 and went from high school to boot camp and I have ZERO tattoos. I hate the sight of them, ESPECIALLY on women! I can’t stand piercings either but at least most of them are not noticeable if they don’t have things stuck in them. Tattoos are permanent. I can’t imagine having a wife with tattoos and piercings other than tiny earring holes. Actually I would be fine if I never saw another earring even.
I can NOT; for life of me; understand how a woman; who changes their mind on a whim to change her hair style, Change it's color, CHange the clothes she's wearing, CHAnge the furniture arrangement in the living room, CHANGe the diet she is on, and finally CHANGE her mind about most everything; can choose to have such PERMANANT markings on her body!
I joined the Navy in '66, and I carefully avoided them because the college girls in Newport RI (where I was home ported) wouldn't date sailors with tattoos, because they were so tacky. For the most part, the only sailors that got tattoos back then were lifers.
I remember once when me and some of my shipmates got some new guy drunk out in town, and we convinced him that we all should go get tattoos - him first.
He fell for it.
So we went over to the tattoo parlor and he got this big garish tattoo, and the rest of us left and went back to the bar.
We all got initiated when we were the new guy on the ship, and that was his initiation.
