My girlfriend occasionally mentions that she'd like to get a tattoo, and every day I pray that she never gets round to it. I agree that 90% of tattoos make a person look lowbrow and uneducated or at least too spontaneous for their own good.
Some tattoos look good on girls, like something neutral on the lower back or other rarely-seen areas. Always black, colour tattoos always look dreadful. |
This is such a confusing statement. You say you dislike tattoos on girls and you dread your girl ever getting one...yet the only ones you DO like are the typical tramp stamp ones? Nice.
SINCE SOMEONE ASKED:

i have 3
first one when i was 16, my mother took me to get it done, my grandmother wrote my name in 3 chinese characters which literaly english translation means - brave, honor, middle path in life. it is located on my back from my neck down, single color black ink in original chinese script (clean letters no brush marks)
2nd tattoo when i was 21, outlined band around my bicep broken by the chinese character music, english literal translation means rhythm of life (like a heartbeat) located on my tricep. band outline symbolizes that life is an outline, living it can be filled in so many ways. translation to life is about the journey not the destination, music/rhythm of life will take you there.
3rd tattoo - when I was 25. Half sleeve right arm shoulder to elbow. i took my father to get a tattoo, i surprised him with a meeting with my artist. If I could take a picture of the smile on his face when I told him, I will die with that picture in my mind. He wanted a snake on his arm, mouth closed, tongue out, not in a striking position (coiled up). His session took 1 sitting for 3 hours, single color, symbolizes his chinese birth sign. I took his tattoo, the snake, and made it into a sleeve, same snake in a japanese waterfall, with rocks, waves, and bamboo. Top shoulder has clouds swirls which make up the waterfall. It's my father inked on my right arm (I'm a lefty) symbolizes my father being with me all my life on my right hand side. 10 hrs, 3 sessions, black with accent and fades, green under belly of snake, white scales single needle full bleed work.

my 4th one is currently being designed/drawn. It will be done once I finish the NY Triathlon as a memorial to accomplishing a goal that I never thought I would be able to do. Incorporated in this tribute tattoo will be a sanskrit saying related to the enduring of life through an active lifestyle to remind me that life is what you make it and to continue to do it through your whole life. will include the date of the the ny tri as well 7/18/10 which has numbers of my birthday 10/18. location is either on my wrist, forearm, or on my inside back heel under my ankle bone. have not decided yet |

Eh. I find tattoos to be extremely unappealing on a girl, for the most part. Small tattoos, I don't mind as much.
But they have to be small. Any bigger than Stu's cock, and that's way too big for my taste. |
whaaaaa
i think tatted up chicks are hot.....too tho. i'd nevermarry one or date one longer then afew months |

I'm seriously considering having one done when I finish my degree or masters. This is something I never thought I could achieve...I thought I had intellectually peaked at 18 after doing so-so in school and dropping out of college twice. But now i'm on course to get one of the top 10 grades out of my class of 100 or so.
I am torn between a science tattoo...and have been getting some cool ideas from this website: http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/l...attoo-emporium/
Or I have been thinking of getting something like a sentence from some of the proverbs that got me through some tough times, like "When the horse runs off..." |
