It's funny that tattoos have become so trendy, that folks find it odd if you don't have any.

Recently, a Woman said I was an anomoly because I don't have any tattoos. I laughed.

I never wanted any, and don't like a permanent committment in ink on my skin.


It took me three years just to figure out what color to paint my bedroom - and that can be changed. lol

No tattoos.

I don't have any tattoos because: I don't like them and because as ubiquitous as they are these days the true way to express individuality it not to have any...

I could not have said it better myself ! ! !

You have to sit still for a long time for a tatoo.

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

I notice that no one has suggested that he might actually have a tattoo. So I assume that the rest of you have actually seen him naked?

I personally don't mind that I haven't, but it does make me feel just a bit out of the loop to realize you're all so much more in the know than I am.

Precisely. Once your cock is knackered the need to look cool doesn't seem important to me.

My moobs will be sagging to my knees. I will be dribbling more than Christiano Ronaldo. My earlobes will be bigger than my hands. I highly doubt it will grieve me if my Public Enemy tattoo is a bit faded.

bigd74 said:I've always thought about getting one but the thought of what they'd look like when I'm 70 puts me off smile People seem to forget that the "ink" you get today will fad "tomorrow". I have seen some tats where I am left scratching my head trying to remember what it looked like back in the day. No ink for me. Plus, Prince has beautiful skin, why ink it? I am an African American woman and ink on our skin isn't always visible. This is the reason why some tattoo artist dislike inking darker skin. My nephew got a tat of my father and I just hate it. eek

"They'll look bad when your old" - so fucking what?! When you're that age, you won't give a fuck anyway. There is some real ludicrous stuff in this thread - such as it not looking good on African-American skin...what a crock! You know, there are many cultures around the world PARTICULARLY AFRICAN who decorate, ink and garnish their bodies and it has been going on for thousands of years. If you don't like it, that's fine, but it is an individual's choice what they do to their body. The only dumbasses are the ones who think they can call someone out for it.

I've never seen a tattoo that made anyone look better. Perhaps Prince feels the same way.

Guess what?

I also do not have a tattoo and I have no desire get one.

I think God did a great job designing it perfectly just the way it is.

vikfunk said:

Why Prince has no tattoo? I know some religions explicitly forbid tattoos, but I don't know if that's the case with JW or some denominations of Christianity (Prince has always been tattoo-less before he became a JW, but I don't know if he follows any particular religion prior to his conversion).

Or is it due health and hygiene reasons (we know that he's a super clean guy). Or is it just because tattoos were not so hip during the 70's and 80's?

Did he not have a basic symbol on his head under his hair and sorta had it undershaved at the side to reveal?

No, that was the same thing as slave on his face. Prince is smart enough to know that tattoos are forever and he changes his mind to much to have any tattoo be relevant to his life for more than a year, tops. Also, the bible says tattoos are a major no-no, though I doubt that influenced his desire to not spray paint what he considers to be the Taj Majal.

I remember reading someone showed their Prince tattoos to him and he quoted a scripture back to them. It's something like "thou shalt not mark your skin" shrug

Prince has a symbol tattooed on his head. You can see it in the emancipation booklet.

See the man with the blue guitar, maybe one day he`ll be a star...
