Re: Tattoos

Sorry, to offend anyone but l detest tattoos.
I just imagine, what they will look like on aged skin. I wonder if there is an iron for human skin?

Re: Tattoos

I really don’t like to see the beauty of bare human skin defaced by tattoos.
I know some people like them but they make me shudder.

My Dad was in the Navy but never had a tattoo and my Mum didn’t like them, either.
None of my siblings have tattoos and none of our children have.
The younger generation are not that much keener on having tattoos - my granddaughter had a small “Manchester bee” tattooed on her ankle, after the Manchester terrorist attack - but none of her 12 cousins have any - although my great-nephew is a tattoo artist - he loves designing tattoos and tattoos his designs on other people but he has no tattoos himself.

Tattoos do tend to be referred to as 'body art' nowadays don't they Pauline? Some of the ones I've seen certainly look like art too. Mind you, from what you say yours aren't on display ...

Re: Tattoos

I don't mind the odd tattoo on men but I find men covered in tattoos a complete turn off.

When my sister died I did consider having one in her memory but thought better of it as if I'm honest I really don't like tattoos on women, especially the full leg and sleeve things but I don't judge, it's personal choice, just that I personally don't like very large tattoos, especially on women.

I saw a goth woman in the pub yesterday and her whole neck and chin was covered in an enormous tattoo, it was very dark and drew attention to it straight away, I couldn't help but notice it and I felt it spoilt her lovely face.

Arty, don't apologise for having your own view lass. Some people like them, some people don't and that's perfectly ok.

Anyway here is the tattoo I almost got a year after my beautiful sister died. Had I decided to have it I would have it on a smaller scale. I decided against it as I don't think my sister would approve, that along with I'm too chicken, I don't do pain very well.

Re: Tattoos

Personally I find tattoos repulsive - on either sex - but life would be very boring if we all thought the same way.

My late brother was in the Royal Navy - had hundreds of the things (shudders) and my SIL always said she would divorce him if he had them removed! No accounting for taste

Re: Tattoos

I at one time fancied a tiny bumble bee but being needle phobic didn't do it. Got a stick on one in ustead.
