Posted: 7/31/2007 6:52:58 AM | Msg 400 - really? And you are the arbiter of taste for the masses? I may agree somwhat with the Berkinstocks and Croc's comment, on men and women, although not completely, but personal choice is just that, personal choice. You don't have to like it, but you also don't get to tell the rest of the world that it makes someone not "sexy: either. Just because its not to your taste, doesn't mean it won't rock someone else's world.
There are some tattoos that are very nice, and some that are not so hot. But if you can't see beyond the ink? Naff off. | |

Posted: 7/31/2007 1:23:01 PM | Interesting discussion here, especially when members describe what they DO like, in tattoos and piercings on women. Let me try to share an entirely different viewpoint on tattoos.... answering the original question of what appeals to men.
I just want to express my old-fashioned opinion, as a man, that imho small and discreet tattoos and piercings can be very attractive on a woman, if these ornaments are not displayed in public. The only piercings that I like to see in public are tiny rings or studs in the earlobe, one on each ear lobe, with no other additional piercings to the ears. (or face, or navel, or anything else...) Ear ornaments that hang down like ceiling fan pulls are OK, but not especially nice to look at. It is simply too much ornamentation, especially before six p.m.. Does anybody remember that fashion rule?
Somehow, I am attracted to a woman when she is nicely dressed, educated, and keeps herself looking classy and professional, when in public. (A Radcliffe girl? A Talbot's girl, perhaps?)
HOWEVER, at the same time, I can be fascinated by the same woman if she has one or two tiny tattoos and piercings that are not visible to the public. By not visible to the public, I mean impossible to see, not even when wearing a modest two piece bathing suit. It's a private matter!
A tiny tattoo on a woman's tummy can be a stunner. One girl had a tiny cupid on her tummy, that would show just above the top of a skimpy bikini bottom. It was a really flirtatious and provocative tattoo, as cupid was pointing his arrow downward, at her vulva.
A tattoo in the area of the sacrum can be a real thrill. Somehow it is visual interest for well... it is like an invitation, a sign that she likes it "that way". But on the other hand, no one need see that tattoo, other that her significant other. Perhaps, that is why it seems to provocative and sensual.
Likewise, pierced nipples are very erotic. These are not to be displayed in public, even as the hint of a piercing, showing as a wrinkle on the fabric of her blouse. However, in the privacy of her own boudoir! Oh My! (In any case, even unpierced nipples should not cause any tell tale bumps on clothing, when in public. )
To sum it up, private and discreet tattoos and piercings seem to say, and provide tangible evidence, that a girl may be sensible and prudent outside her home, but she does have a more exciting side that she displays to her spouse, and only her spouse. (I don't want to get into the territory covered by those open marriage threads...LOL)
My emotional response is mixed, to a woman with visible tattoos, multiple ear piercings, or facial piercings, as well as navel piercings. It just seems too extreme a statement that she considers herself to be outside the mainstream of civilized society. Yes... I know that I should not jump to that prejudicial conclusion, but that is not my conclusion... it is my emotional reaction.
Anyone care to comment? Or share their experiences and preferences for discreet and private tattoos? These ornaments can be very appealing, imho. | |

no one need see that tattoo, other that her significant other.
 ...and the guy that put it there.
...Almost makes me want to be a tattoo artist!
...Alright... let me try this again. She has this bright, red, beautiful rose that climbs up a stem from her boob and wonders why guys will not look into her eyes while talking to her... geez!
...Seriously though, does anyone ever watch America's Most Wanted? And "he/she has a tattoo on their shoulder, etc."... nothing like being identified! And not to mention being so sexy while wearing that Easter dress!
...When I see a middle aged woman at the tat parlor, it makes me wonder if she is not wanting to be like her daughter's friends. | |

Posted: 7/31/2007 2:28:47 PM | | Tattoos do not bother me on women it is up 2 the person I have one tat on my right forearm it's a tribal I want loads of tats over my life inluding a full back piece from my shoulders to the base of my back but it will incorparate things that mean something to me. I am a strong believer that you should only get a tattoo if it means something, tats on women dnt bother me at all I like thm, if you like the woman wether she has tatttoos or not shouldn't bother you. | |

Hi SG,
I just had to add my .02 .....
I turned 55 last April and I have always wanted a small tat on my earlobe or a small butterfly on my ankle....with my daughter's first letter of her name and her children's first letter also on the wings. Not because of copying my daughter or any of her friends but for the fact that it would mean something to me & her and I also think they are very cute, but as of yet I still havn't gotten the nerve up to do it .....yet! The needle thing...
LoL.....

Posted: 7/31/2007 3:23:21 PM | Hi. Tattoes are an indivivual preference surely... if you want one ..get one and take no notice of what small minded people say.... I, personally have 5 tattoes at the moment and I am itching for another....I have been out with one or two guys and they said that they find them a turn -on....mine vary in size... so ..hey if you one get one as I said.. oh yeah... depending your pain level ....they are sore but not that bad....if you have a needle phobia.. stay away.. good luck... | |

Posted: 7/31/2007 3:33:01 PM | A woman smoking or tattoos on a woman really turn me off. However, that is MY preference and my PERSONAL opinion.
It feels as if those with tatoos want justification or group support from others who have it or from those who find it attractive.
If you love your tattoos, god bless you. Live your life with pleasure but do not expect it, for example, to look professional in an interview for a professional job or to sway the opinion of those who hate it.

Posted: 8/1/2007 1:43:04 AM | I get tattoos because I simply like them - definitely not following trends, I have wanted them since I was 8 years old and that was in the early 80's.
As long as people have a meaning behind their tattoo and don't just pick one off a wall, then who cares if it's "trendy" or not - not everyone is a trend follower. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 2:19:17 AM | | For the most part ------ NO - i don't really like 'em ! Not to say I am totally against them. A smaller more private one is OK. But the big gawdy - out there everywhere and all over just don't do it. I don't really think they are attractive. And if they are another mans name or tied to them - i don't want to live with that either. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 2:28:09 AM | oh yes yes yes..... i have many tattoos and peircings and i think that they are very attractive on a woman.... tattoos can be very feminen and that mostly it is attractive because it shows personal confidence, doing things for you and not caring what other people think... its your body you should do with it what you want and disregaurd what other people think... if someone doesnt like you for who you are then their superficial and not worth wasting your time with....

Posted: 8/1/2007 2:59:57 PM | | I personally don't like them but it's not my choice if she does , For me why would I want someone to put some cheesy hack artist picture on my body that I have to live with forever when I could draw something much better than anything I've seen out there but still wouldn't put it on my body. | |

"...that getting a tattoo involves pain, and therefore isn't "feminine". "
Giving birth doesn't involve pain? I'd like to see the guy who told you that try giving birth!
hell ya! i'm not a guy obv. but i personally like tattoos.  | |

My only regret is they are now on every body when 33 years ago it was unique not follow the crowd thing to do
yes, they must have been so "unique" that no tat shop or tat artist even existed to give you one?
self-done? home-made? they may be more widely used thorughout society now, but tattoos are hardly a "new fad". have been around for 100's of years as a tribal thing, and over a 100 years in North America in some sectors, esp. bikers, military, esp. sailors, etc. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 4:38:43 PM | Being a person that generally wears a suit and having been a Marine, Police officer and college teacher I am extensively tattooed. I think it's ART! This generally comes as a surprise to most people, I get the "you don't look like..." then they realize that they are stereotyping and stammer an apology. It completely depends on the individual-no difference male/female. The only thing that bothers me is some voice an opinion later on that they are sorry they got it. It seems that it was a surprise to these ones that in most cases (except for a REAL lot of pain and MORE money) they are permanent!
I'm looking for a "colorful women" for a relationship, it tells me that she is an individual and at ease with her body and decisions. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 7:35:06 PM | | "ART"?????artwork belongs on a wall not on a human body.some of the people that do them do nice work but its still hideous,has no shine to it and does absolutely nothing for you.as i said in one of the tattoo threads here you are paying to advertise for some guy that wasnt smart enough to use his talent for something good where he could make a ton of money with it.you should be getting payed to wear this so called"artwork",you are a walking billboard for the "artists" bussiness. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 7:42:34 PM | | msg 420 - you sadden me. If you think tattoos are simply an advertisement, you're seriously clueless. Do you buy a piece of art and hang it on your wall for the purpose of advertising for the artist? No, you get it because it's beautiful. And some of the greatest tattooists do make pretty good money... sure, some don't, but they're getting the ultimate praise from their customers - a permanent place in a gallery. If you don't want tattoos on your body, fine. But some of us can appreciate the art of spectacular artists and want it around forever. For example, Jen Davis, Heather McLean - I would be honored to be tattooed by either of these two women. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 8:18:42 PM | First off, who cares what some one else thinks.
What I think is attractive might not be what some one else fines attractive, that said I'll say yes and no. Tattoo's are personal, I've seen ones I've liked and others I've thought were horrible. Were the tattoo's horrible? Some times they were. Bad art, poorly drawn, too much going on, didn't blend with existing tattoo's etc... In other cases I just didn't like the art, nothing wrong with it, I just didn't care for it.
Now I don't have one myself but have been planing one for some time now, when I get it I know it's something I've thought through. It's just a matter of finding an artist that can put together what I have in my mind and make it work and achieving a goal I've set for myself to commemorate it. | |

Posted: 8/1/2007 11:24:59 PM | | I love tattoos on women. I don't know why I do, I just find it attractive. It's not a deal-breaker either way, and I don't think it should be for anyone in any case, but I'm usually the first one to appreciate a good piece of ink even if there's no attraction to the person. So much the better if there is, though. | |
