I am an older guy and have no tats. Scared of needles I guess.
My son, a product of the times, has one that circles around his upper left arm and a Denver Bronco logo on his right shoulder.

I do not have any and no desire for one anywhere of anything. They look trashy to me, especially on women. Major turn off, I don't care how "tastefully" done they are. If someone wants to get one, so be it. What these characters project to me when they show off their tatts in public by men not wearing shirts or men or women dressing so the tatts are displayed says to me "look at me, I am trash".

Ink used to mean you were part of a group.
MOST of the time now it means they had extra money to waste and the only people impressed are others with ink.
That's deep About as deep as I can get about tattoos.

Marking, cutting, defacing the human body is an ancient practice of pagan ungodly and idolatrous cultures.
The recent surge in tatoos, body piercings, 45-caliber ear holes etc is a symptom and sign of our general population drifting further and further from tradition Christian morality in the public arena.
AND... if you did not get your tatoo on a pirate ship or in Subic Bay it just isn't legit.

Hmmm. Interesting to see what some think about tattoos and those with them. Especially given that a number of folks I consider good friends have responded with such negative views.
I have several tattoos. Both visible and covered, and they have special meaning to me. I have college degrees. I work for a very large company in a skilled position. I have been there for over 10 years. I've been happily married to my wife who also has tattoos for 11 years. Our children are healthy, happy, respectful, well behaved, and they are both on the honor roll at their school. Neither of us have ever depended on others or taken a handout.
Of course to read some folks views we must be real chitty people because we have tattoos.

I believe 'most' with tats are trying to express a message no one gives a fu-k about seeing.

Lots of kids in high school, who in the old days would be telling their teachers they want to be artists of one type or another (i.e., the kids never without their sketch pads), are now telling their teachers they want to be tattooists.

No tattoos here, and can't really see getting any.
What other people spend their money on is none of my business.

A fat chick once told me that she was going to get a tattoo after she lost some weight. She didn't think it was funny when I asked her if it would cost less because it wouldn't have to be as big.

To say that all zebras have stripes is not to say that all animals with stripes are zebras. That's my way of saying that you needlessly took offense. TRH you have a way of needlessly saying a lot of things, and this just adds to the pile. I am not offended at all really. I find it interesting that people who know me in real life(I know real life is scary to you) said some negative things about tattoos, and people who have them. I would hope they see me differently than the opinions they shared here of tattoos and tattooed people.

On the ride into the office I heard a stat on the radio that said that one in four Australians in the 21-35 age range now sports at least one tattoo. The report also indicated that the business of tattoo removal has had a fairly serious increase in the past few years as well...
