amorbella said: If you really want a tattoo and it have a very special meaning to you then the pain is worth it.Tattoo pain varies on the size and location.The back of my ear, my ankles,forearm and my wrists weren't painful. My foot, lower back, tomach and ribcage were painful.I thought my ribcage was going to be the worse pain, but it wasn't. My stomach, right underneath the ribcage was some of the worse pain I have ever felt. I think we need pics. Just cuz, y'know...so we, uh...know what we're talking about here. If you, you know...get a chance and all.....yeah. OT: I LOVE girls with tattoos. I went out with this girl once who had a huge phoenix tattooed on her back, and it was hot. I don't have any myself but I think they're just straight up sexy. | |

I got the rose because I was coming into my own person at the time and it is a reminder that I am beautiful person. The 1 on my shoulder is because I'm a Prince fan and I wanted something to state that. I have that Rose Symbol. The that I am getting on my wrist will be the west african symbol for symbol of endurance and resourcefulness. This is dedicated to my mom. She passed away last year.
My shoulder -> I love that!!! Rhythm floods my heart♥The melody it feeds my soul | |

Genesia said: It depends. As others have pointed out, I think you have to have a particular personal style to pull them off. I certainly couldn't rock one.
One thing I don't care for is random tattoos all over the place. Let's see...I think I'll have a tiger over here...and my boyfriend's name over here...oh! and this Kabbalah verse that I have no idea what it really means over here...and a flower here...and a butterfly here... I mean...have a plan fer chrissakes! This is my opinion as well. When I was getting work done on my sleeve, there was one guy hanging out at the parlor that clearly treated his body as a joke which was littered with several dumb tattoos and he laughed about them all as he explained them to one of the other artists. | |

Not really, I think it takes away from the natural beauty* of a woman

[Edited 6/11/09 9:31am] The ones around the writing and directly on the middle of her back were fake...at least I read that somewhere and haven't seen them again she added the ones around the writing of the latitude and longitude of her children's birthplaces..the ones that frame them..on her arm.. | |

No, not at all to be honest. I don't understand why anyone would would want to have badly drawn picturies on their bodies, and "tribal" tattoos look pretty dated at this point too, I think many have taken rather big ones on their arms, back and legs when they were younger - then when later they'd wish to change their overall style the tattoos don't work out at all in the context. Too often you see someone in a nice summer-y dress or something like that and some sort of a hideous heavy metal -inspired picture sticks out from their shoulder or neck. Then there are those unfortunate individuals who wear pantyhose and have strange, unidentifiable blotches stcking through their garments. It's almost like we're not supposed to be pretending the tattoo isn't there in both cases.
But it's not a huge deal-breaker for me I guess (read: I'll take what I can get ) | |

One look I love on women (though you have to be physically small to pull it off) is being heavily tattooed while wearing a baby doll dress, bows, and pigtails. The contradiction is just too yummy. Small, pigtails, babydoll? So, like "tattooed little girl" look? Don't dudes get read the riot act for likin women dressed like that? Nope, because those tattoos push it over the edge. There's nothing innocent or childlike about a pair of sleeves. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

Depends on your pain tolerance how much you think it hurts, but regardless it's not the same sensation as a hypodermic needle. Some people find being tattooed almost unbearable, some people just find it kind of annoying. We're all different. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

I could go for practical tattoos. Maybe nipples where they ought to be or at least some tattooed stretch marks to make the saggage look logical. Yeah, I should do that. Otherwise, I really have no opinion of tattoos one way or the other, though I enjoy the thought of a future with a bunch of little old tattooed grannies out scootering around. I should just start the trend now and get a Hoveround tattoo. Murica: at least it's not Sudan. | |
