Posted: 2/23/2008 9:44:18 PM | I really think this is going to be something that can go both ways depending on the guy
Personally I think for me, I don't mind them if they are small and not overly visible, however I do feel that a woman should be able to do all that makes her happy so again that is just my personal opinion. Not by any way intended to offend anyone. | |

Posted: 2/23/2008 9:58:05 PM | | I’m not drawn to tattoos, personally. I rarely see one that I think is an enhancement. But they're not necessarily a turn-off either. I am of another generation – when few people had them, and they’re just not part of my aesthetic. As for pain being unfeminine – I’ve witnessed childbirth. Perhaps that broadened my sense of the feminine somewhat. | |

Posted: 2/26/2008 1:25:01 PM | | I think tattoos on women are fine I would be lying if I said it does not involve some pain and if your going to get one check out the tattooists work cleanlyness and you get what you pay for think long and hard it is permanent but I love them so I may be biest can't spell I know.Have you any ideas what you want and where you think you may have it done as some areas are more sensitive than others hope this helps you decide. | |

Posted: 3/2/2008 6:13:21 PM | I think that tattoos on anyone are fine...as long as they mean something! I personally have 2, and the one on my lower back is a symbol of my friendship with an overseas friend I have had for years (he has an identical one on his arm), and the one on my foot is 4 hearts that are my Mother's, mine, and my two younger sister's favorite colors. These tats symbolize a true friend and the strong women in my family...so I love them and most people like them too!
If your tat has a great story or reason behind it, then go for it. But DON'T just get one to get one...you might regret it later in life. So think before you ink! | |

Posted: 3/2/2008 7:10:24 PM | | I'm not a fan of tats, but to each his/her own. But one thing I don't understand are the lower back ones. If I ever were to get a tat, I think I'd want it in a place where I can see it if I so choose. | |

Posted: 3/2/2008 9:36:03 PM | | I like them, particularly if they are artistic and unique. It shows individuality and self-confidence (in not caring what others will think about their ink). | |

Posted: 3/3/2008 6:36:12 AM | | A woman's beauty may be accentuated, but never improved. In other words, less is more. Having made very expensive (to remove) tattoo mistakes, my rule of thumb is once you've decided on a tattoo (style, size, placement, etc) wait AT LEAST a year before you commit to it. You'll be glad you did. | |

Posted: 3/13/2008 12:00:40 PM | | I think that tattoos are low class and would be embarrassed to bring a girl with visible tattoos home to meet my mom. I guess that some guys like them, but not me. | |

Posted: 3/13/2008 6:23:10 PM | | Tattoos are fine, I can definatly appreciate art. Although I've found some shallow women who only want men with tattoos, I try to avoid them. Cmon now judging someone because they have a tattoo? thats' lame. | |

Posted: 3/14/2008 12:06:14 AM | | I think tattoos or any piercings makes a person a little less attractive. Especially if it's on the nipples or clit area. I just don't really care either way, but I'd prefer them not to have 'em. | |

Posted: 3/14/2008 11:56:01 AM | I am absolutely no fan of tattoos, but i am not immidiately put off by them either.
To me the difference is not between "obviously visible" or "small and discreet" tattoos. The difference is between a tattoo that appears well thought over or one that does not.
My personal oppinion on the subject can be put like this:
A large tattoo on a visible place may look good if it is skillfully made and designed and if the design represents the wearer herself and not any brand nor subculture. A tattoo that does not fullfill the above requirements is ugly even if it is discreet . The same applies to piercings. If they are well made they may look good while badly made piercings are ugly by definition.
Then we should remember that beauty is only an outer shell and the important qualities of a person are inside. Plenty of inside qualities can make an ugly outer shell appear beautiful. | |

Posted: 3/14/2008 12:00:42 PM | | Don't wanna read all 26 pages, but it really depends to what extend the girl got tattoos going. I mean... a couple of small ones, ok.... a half of the back and soulders covered - disgusting. | |

Posted: 3/14/2008 2:25:34 PM | Obviously, every man will have his own individual opinion on this. Some people, for example, actually have religious objections to tattoos, so that would make someone flatly incompatible. I think the common attitude is going to vary A LOT depending on location.
Personally-- it really depends on both the individual and the tattoo in question.
A really unattractive/inappropriate (OR un-original) tattoo can seriously detract from someone's attractiveness, especially (in my own personal opinion) botched tattoos, tattoos that are obviously not well-maintained, obvious 'coverup' tattoos over top of previous work, etc.
Attractive, individual and interesting tattoos, by contrast, can add individuality and attitude, therefore 'hotness'. I share the opinion of one poster to the effect that tattoos on the bust area are 'rarely' a good idea, although I have seen some (v. rare) that looked good. I'm (grudgingly) coming around to the view that neck tattoos on women can be attractive, but this (again) is a very rare case. Facial tattoos are pretty much out, in my view, with the possible (very limited) exception of women who tattoo on something that looks like an effect that would otherwise be created by eye makeup (although the Cleopatra effect would probably be too much).
I'm inclined to the view that there is definitely a 'masculine' and a 'feminine' aesthetic to tattooing, depending on both subject matter and tattoo locations. A classic example is the 'lower-back' tattoo on women, which can be very attractive-- depending, of course, on the individual tattoo (again), or the ankle tattoo on women also.
There is definitely a 'sexual' subtext to tattoo placement, without even talking about overtly sexual subject-matter.
I think there may be some truth to a theory that I have heard, to the effect that seemingly random and/or unrelated tattoos may be an indicator of someone with a random and disorganized approach to life, no consistent plans, and so on, whereas a coherent or inter-related set of skin-art reflects the opposite. I have not dated enough people with either kind of tattoo pattern to really be able to judge, but what I have seen has been fairly consistent with this. | |

Posted: 3/14/2008 9:03:34 PM | | It depends on what sort of tattoos she has and where they are. It can be attractive in some cases, but in others it is not attractive. It is like jewellery and clothing; tacky, vulgar, obscene or excessive tattoos are just as bad as tacky jewellery and clothing. But if they are done in the right way and suit her, they can make her more attractive. | |

Posted: 3/28/2008 7:15:49 AM | I have 3 tattoos and don't really care about appearing feminine. I wear high heels and skirts to my professional job, but I don't look very feminine when I'm covered in mud from mountain biking with my friends. I'd rather be a woman that lives her life with passion than walking around worried that I'm not girly enough.
And for those that think we just trying to conform or don't understand why people get tattoos. They are an expression of something that is true to you. It's like putting your personality out there for people to see, or wearing your heart on your sleeve so to speak. Of course there is a big difference between someone that walks in and picks some flash art off the wall and someone that actually thinks through their designs very carefully! My husband loves my tattoos because he drew one and helped design the other two. | |
