Women and tattoos

RiverRat232

Do you find women with tattoos more attractive or less? Personally, I cringe when I see women who are heavily tattooed. I dislike even small tattoos. Am I in the minority?

I agree, so thats 2 of us. I know - old fashioned farts but why mess up a nice bod?

Not a fan of them, I was out on a sandy beach a couple weeks ago and seen a chick, with a marijuana tat on the cheek of her a$$, so attractive. Not a at all, don’t understand why that attractive young lady did it to herself

My little sis is covered with tats so i have a bias point of view....i cant look at a chick covered in tats without thinking of my sister.   Therefore I don't like them.  I don't like them at all.

Me neither. Daughter has a few and i dont like it but that's her choice I guess. That perky blue bird looks like a wrinkled bat after a few years...

I am glad I am not alone. I can recall when the only tattoos you saw were on sailors and bikers. I think the tatted up people will regret their choices some day.

Youngish guy here and have never liked them. Maybe a small one hidden is fine...but anyone with a ton of em I steer clear of.

I think it says something about the person. To me it screams "I am a follower". Used to be rebels got tatted. Now it's mainstream and the non tatted people are the rebels.

Willhound

I always feel people with a lot of tattoos are compensating for something and need to be a centre of attention. Instead of allowing their own sense of confidence and personality to shine through.

The other thing that comes to mind when a completely beautiful girl is covered in tats is "oh that's such a shame she did that to herself"

I’m not a fan, but if done right sometimes I think it looks good.

Before my sister got covered head to toe I loved the suicide girls.

I like women with low standards and dad issues!

inappropriate, perhaps, but... the girls with the tats that cover large swaths (i don't mind tasteful, small tats) read to me "Toy".  It strikes me as self-esteem/respect issue...  a means to distract- or better said to 'hide' from something else... 

the single guy somewhere inside me figures "yay!!!-  no commitment expected!!!", but the one who is old and codgy, who's seen a few things and mapped the correlations of behaviors, looks beyond the cloak and horizon sees injured souls either wanting to be something they're not, or desperately hiding- and knows there is a wounded person or a person with barriers- and that they are likely someone worth knowing when you get past the introduction.

Im good with it. Just not on face, hands or neck.  Not a fan of little tattoos that look like they doodled on thier skin.

Not a fan of tats big or small

Go figure this site is mostly clean cut motor boaters who want respectable women.  If this were a sailboat forum....the sleazier and easier they are the better!

"Hey, just 19 more payments, and these tats are MINE." LOL

 I see a lot of tatted up women on wake boats too.

Definitely have no attraction to the tattoos.  Turns me off, but my naughty side says hmmm.  I often see people with tattoos that complain about not being able to afford things.  I can only assume tats aren't cheap.

PickleRick

My sister married a tattoo artist.   Playing the system.

Exactly. Like those on free lunches at school when the Admiral worked there and the parent reeked of booze and cigarettes but no money for kids breakfast or lunch.

Spend your money however you want but if your children are in need because your spend too much money on self indulgences like tats, booze, drugs or cigarettes that pretty trashy.

tats are the least of my worries...

I always said my body is a temple. The Temple of Doom....

Don't like them.  If you have a favorite shirt, are you going to wear it for the rest of your life.  No, of course not.  Why would you wear a tattoo for the rest of your life.

skennelly

@kordo - that t-shirt would eventually fade and look like $hit...just like a tatoo
