| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 9:25:04 AM | your reply could have been one of many In your dreams I would never have sex with an old git(hope that doesnt offend) Have you looked in the mirroe lately Beggers cant be choosers..........the list goes on | |

| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 10:07:03 AM | "I wouldn't have sex with a woman with tatoos"
"Good, I don't like sharing 'em"
Call 911 after you leave and tell 'em a older man is having a heart attack in the store...
OP, Bottom line is the guy was openly sharing his opinion. If you took offense at his opinion, that means you took his opinion personally. Why? It's his opinion, he's entitled to it and has the right to voice it. And tra la la who the heck cares... Does his opinion really matter to you? It really shouldn't. If you say he shouldn't express his opinions...he really should just keep them to himself, then you need to apply that same rule to yourself. Which you obviously do not because you are here in a forum voiceing your opinion on the matter. The whole "right to believe whatever your want" is a double edged sword, ain't it....
laugh it off next time... | |

Take action and leave it alone As with all things you can choose the high road or the low road. You can tell him to F off next time if you want to. Or you could tell him what a shame for him. He doesn't know what he missed. Us tattooed freaks screw like rabbits. | |

WOW Selena.... bad day at work? LOL
lol, noo, sorry.. just that that line is a really old line so I was surprised to see a reaction like that. My apologies... :)
((even though u just chopped me down and 69 ate me up... im going to compliment your name :) always liked the name selena))
Well thank you I hate the name though. I'd gladly trade ya! | |

| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 2:26:17 PM | Why was that comment rude? It's a known stereotype for people to think you're crazy and wild and thats why you have a tattoo. We as consumers accept that we may be typecast if we decide to get art on our bodies and go through with it anyway.
I think your reaction to his comment is just completely uncalled for. I know as a person with tattoos it's common place to be approached about your body art. You could have just smiled and continued your transaction instead of instigating the situation further. | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 2:41:23 PM | lol the comment about the trailer park was funny.......if the guy was that old i wouldnt have probably said anything to him.... | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 2:41:26 PM | i wasnt in a CLUB, on the street, at a bar... i was in a dang GNC and he was the guy working behind the register. It's called crossing the lines.... however if u like random men speaking to you that way.. more power to you :) I prefer respect on the other hand :) | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 2:53:58 PM | Those guys at tattoo parlours are jokers, old coots. What happens if he says "I love girls with tattoos just like yours." Gonna let him cop a feel? | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/26/2008 3:06:37 PM | LOL.....Well my sarcastic side would of gave him the name of the shop I got the tattoo at and told him they do wonders in covering up age spots too as I would never have sex with someone who had a few of those showing........but he would have to live with being rude seeing how ya can't teach an old man new tricks... I can relate to your experience...being 6'1 and well built I get so many off the wall comments from guys who think I give a rats a$$ about what they think about my height or rack!!!!!! I was at the store once and a guy at the next till was staring at my breasts so hard I felt naked.......my cell rang and when my friend said where are you I replied..AT SAFEWAY AND SOME GUY WITH A BLUE SHIRT ON IS LOOKING AT MY BOOBS LIKE THEY ARE HIS LUNCH!!!!!!! Well he looked away and everyone had a comment to make about his actions.......no one more then the woman he was in line with!!!!!!!!! | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/28/2008 1:16:13 PM | Just seems to me like he was trying to make conversation, which most good clerks do. Better than just standing there while no one says anything.
I see nothing wrong at all about his opening statement. YOU crossed the line by pulling your shirt lower to show him another tattoo. He probably thought you were trying to show off. If I was of his generation I would have had a similar retaliatory statement. You have to think before you act, and if you can't defend something reasonably, be quiet and don't complain. | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/28/2008 1:37:55 PM | | I would have looked him in the eye and said smiling "these purchases, gee I really don't need them" then smiled at him, left the items on the counter and walked out. | |

I was at my local gnc this morning, the cashier a man that looked to be in his 60's , commented on one of my tattoos " Hummmm , a rose! I quess you got that in you WILD days" Annoyed by his RUDE comment, being that the tattoo was only a couple months old...I lowered my shirt a bit to show him the OLD TATTOO... u know the one from my wild days (lol). Thinking that I had stopped the rude comments...... he then replys with a ... " i would never have sex with a woman that had tattoos " Ummmmmm i know i should respect my elders, but WTF?!?!?!? I just "THANKED" him and walked out.... What would your reply have been??
Almost anything but yours if my intent was to not encourage him to make more comments. Personally, I think his first comment amounted to nothing more than being friendly, which is what most customers expect. I also think he used good judgment in saying something that would not offend most normal people. Exactly why did you think lowering your shirt to show him another tatoo would do anything but elicit another comment? If by lowering your shirt, you mean showing him your tits, he probably thought you were a hooker propositioning him and was politely declining. If he looked to be in his 60's then his experience with woman when he was your age is quite different than it would be today. If a woman with a tatoo came to my father's office, I could see my him making a comment sinilar to the first one, thinking he was just making conversation about something of which you are obviously enamored. However, in his case, lowering your shirt woud have embarassed the hell out of him and reinforced his preconceptions about women who get tatoos.
If you didn't want comments on your artwork, what was the point of having it done? Do you really think the average person can tell the difference between an old tatoo and one that's a few months old? I can't or at least I've never made the effort to notice.
The world isn't all about you. | |

| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/28/2008 2:28:41 PM | | i would have reported him to the owner that he was very out of line! he shouldnt even be talking to a customer like that, if he would do that to you then he will get others mad commenting them like that to. so he was way out of line! | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/28/2008 2:37:40 PM | """""""""The world isn't all about you""""""""" My WORLD is about ME :)
just because i pulled down my shirt doesn't mean i had tits hanging out... nor cleavage.... I had just come from the YMCA ( next to the gnc) i had a biking shirt on and 2 damn sports bras...
because one has body art doesnt mean you can make rude or sexual comments.
Thanks 4 your comments though..... it was extra SPECIAL...LOL | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/28/2008 2:49:08 PM | | Are you one of those girls that walk around with their tits hanging out then get pissed at guys who look at your tits? | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/28/2008 6:03:09 PM | Him: I would never have sex with a woman with tattoos.
You: At least it would give your poor, overworked hand a rest. | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/29/2008 12:01:40 PM | Him~ I would never have sex with a woman with tattoos. You~ Isn't that your bow legged wife staring in the window of the Tat-Hut across the street? | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/29/2008 12:06:45 PM | | Meh some people are just arseholes either way you look at it. Considering how many people have tattoos now (including women), his chances of having sex with a woman is even lower...although scwhings response is pretty good too. | |
|
| what would your reply have been.... Posted: 6/29/2008 12:35:19 PM | haha you should have started to undo your belt and ask how he feels about piercings??!?!?!
Ive been involved with such incidents and I am usually extremely quick when firing back.. guns a blazin and love the reaction of some people when you smash what they say to you back in there face and then some and they learn from there mistake.
Again though.. its his choice.. he was probably bored out of his mind.. saw your ta'ta's tattoos and then saw the rest of you and was like blah.. and made the stupid comment.
Some people are like that. | |
