Tattoo as a deal-breaker?

Okay, sure, but let's not spend too much time deciding which guy to show to Erick Estrada, if you know what I mean.

I never got the 'cliche' genres of tattoos. That is, arbitraly deciding what is and what isn't.

The biggest of this is Asian symbols. Ok, just cause they were overly popular for a few years you hate on them?

The argument, 'they mean nothing to you and you don't understand em unless you're Asian' makes ZERO sense.

One, just because a couple maroons screwed theirs up, does not mean every or even most symbols are screwed up or not researched.

Two, just because it's not your native tongue doesn't mean you have no right to it? Should I not get French words? What about the Eye of Ra? Hey, Latin is a dead language so I guess no one gets Latin.

Symbols often transcend language and culture and they are everywhere. So get over it. I guess Asian symbols were cool for five years.

Your not actually making any real arguments against the style or message. Only the old hipster argument that anything too cool is uncool.

And I have no symbols nor get excited over Asian symbols. Just very interested in a culture that decides what is cool and what isn't. It's all hipster nonsense.

First of all, just break up with this girl. You're not doing each other any favors.

As for tattoos on either sex, it really depends on the individual. Some people look crappy in certain styles of clothing and some look crappy with tattoos.

This sounds really rude, but if a woman is kinda rough or "haggy" looking, a tattoo only makes it worse.

I have a bracelet tattoo. It's black and is one-of-a-kind. I got it after Hurricane Andrew, and it was designed and inked by one of Marilyn Manson's ex-roommates lol-oh, youth!

If I had to do it over again I'd just have someone make me a damned bracelet.

I will say that the actual experience of being tattooed was very erotic. The artist is still one of the most gorgeous guys I've ever seen, and there is no way we would be that close for any other reason.

Jimmy Mariani, I don't know where you are, but you were HOT!!!!

According to Brian (aka Mr Manson), I was the first person to tell him he would be extremely famous one day. I knew him when he couldn't get more than 3 people to come to his poetry readings. Memories.....South Florida......aahhhhhh......I should've taken pictures.......

I'm guessing Chris Brown was the first man that came to flameswin's head. Not sure what to make of that. Maybe that's his ideal man.

I heard this before, but I do enjoy the trip. Wish I had been in that time and place.

Well, at least our spousal disagreements would be a little more even.

Earlier this evening, I was in Walgreen's (drugstore) and heard "Love is on the Way" by Saigon Kick. Wow, on the Walgreen's corporate soundtrack?!? That really freaked me out, so I guess I'm in the mood to vent about such things. Such an interesting time/place, but it's time to move out and away....and it's kind of poignant and sad.

Also, I bought "The Cichlids-Be True to Your School" on eBay the other day.

Those were the days....

Well, i hope for his sake that he can take a beating...

[Daradon]

So what's the word OP? Still figuring it out?

[Alberta_Beef]

It all depends on the tattoo, it has to fit the person. They look good on some people but not others.

It would never be a deal breaker for me though, but that would be hypocritical since when its all said and done I will have 2 full sleeves and a full back piece.... at the very least.

[Northendzone]

I like women with short hair......I likea few well placed tats, but sleeves are not attractive to me. Saw an attractive women in banff today biking, but she had one tatt on each thigh, and to me it was not attractive.

Also used to see a very attractive woman at the gym, one day she shows up with a tatt on her arm, over time it grew into a sleeve, back piece, and she fell into the would not bang category......

[BigBrodieFan]

I have a couple small tattoos that are hidden, just a couple of meaningful things. I never had any complaints. I think a ton of tattoos on men or women are disgusting.

I will say one thing- the whole Chinese calligraphy tattoos on white girls for tramp stamps is ######ed. If you don't speak Chinese, how do you know the tattoo artist isn't writing 'ho' or 'dirty beeotch' on your back instead of 'harmony' or 'peace.' It makes no sense.

American Pickers Danielle Coby looks hideous with all her tatoo's. A shame really as she comes across as a really nice gal.

NSFW!

Chest plate tattoos are the worst thing ever. Ruins what once may have been really nice scenery.

[kermitology]

I was in Canmore this morning and stopped in at Communitea. The girl at the till had a number of tattoos including one right in the middle of her chest. To which I could not stop staring.

That girl was amazingly hot.

Depends on the tattoo and the location.

Use Google Translate and end up like this guy who wanted to get his Russian name tattooed in Cyrillic across his back and instead ended up with "No Translation" in Cyrillic instead: http://www.reddit.com/r/cringepics/c...me_to_russian/

Spoiler!

OP??? Don't leave us in the dark. We may have exhausted the choices.
