Tattoo as a deal-breaker?

Why is it a shame? Plus she isn't even that attractive, if you were looking for a hot tattooed reality star look at Kendall Neuner from Barter Kings. Anyone in here saying they don't like short hair and tattoos would give away their first born for a chance at her.

Spoiler!

I'll say no to that. Not all of us are interested in the inked up prepubescent boy look. It is interesting that you find that look really attractive though.

Oooh insinuating that I am gay! Good one. I love the "I can't find a girl with short hair attractive because people might think I am gay." attitude. Actually you know who else thinks she's attractive? The majority of people. She's a model who turned her career into a television role. You think A&E hired her for her barter knowledge?

But she isn't pretty because of her short hair and tattoos; she's pretty in spite of them.

Who the hell thinks that people don't find girls with short hair attractive because they're afraid of being thought of as gay? That's a bizarre leap in logic. There are women who can look attractive with short hair but they'd generally look better with long hair anyway.

There are plenty of models who aren't attractive Or at least to me anyways. I don't base who I find attractive on other people's opinions.

As for A&E hiring her I don't know who she is and I had no idea what channel her show is on. Nor do I have any idea why she was hired since I've never watched her show.

As for Kendall Neuner, the short hair doesn't bother me, but those tats are awful... though I think it's the lack of boobs would get her scratched off of most guys "hot list", but whatever floats your boat, man.

Yeah, thats the thing. Hot people look hot no matter what they are wearing, or haircut or tattoos they have. They could wear a barrel and suspenders and it would be hot.

It's the average ones that have to be careful, because one style choice could swing it one way or another drastically.

^ she is kind of hot, for a short term fling. All those tarts look great now, but what happens in 40 years?

40? They'll probably look terrible in 10.

Totally. I'm 36 and all the tattoos my friends got in their 20s look horrible and trashy now (guys and girls). And at least we are older than the sleeve fad that started when we were too old to be getting tattoos...Can't imagine what those are going to look like in time.

It is possible that people don't give flying #### what others think of them.

Others, such as employers.

Anyone who says they don't care about what others think of them is a liar. So much of what we do and buy (whether it be clothes or cars or whatever) is a reflection of the type of person we want to project to others. Why else would people buy $800 handbags or lease cars they can't really afford to buy?

It's the same with tattoos, just a different projection. If people really didn't care, they wouldn't need to project their thoughts to others with visible tattoos. They could just live, laugh and love on the inside.

I've always disliked tattoos in general. I can tolerate them if they're able to be hidden under clothing, but I draw the line at large visible tattoos.

Glad to see I'm not alone.

Pretty much my thinking on it.

And a tattoo wouldn't necessarily be a deal breaker for me, depending where it is. One or two small ones in a hidden place isn't the end of the world. But in the physical attraction department, it always makes it slightly worse for me, its never an improvement. And a big, obvious one is a gigantic turnoff. I'll never get the attraction (on the opposite sex) many have for those things. But like you said, we're all different.

[gottabekd]

Trying to be as polite as possible, if a girl has a bunch of tattoos, I immediately think of them as more 'adventurous'.

It seems others share this sentiment. A girl with lots of tattoos might make for a fun fling, but we probably aren't compatible long term.

And as with most things, if the girl is hot, she'll still be hot when covered in tattoos.

NSFW!

I grew up with a guy that made some really, really bad tattoo and piercing choices, and he hates his life to no extent because he basically has boxed himself into a life of manual labour until the end of his time. Nobody will ever hire him in a professional environment with his labia'esque earlobes, and neck tattoos. People who mutilate themselves with dumbass tribal designs don't think it matters, when you actually are of a professional woking age, it makes all the difference in the world.

I can see getting something that can be covered, each to their own. But you better really, REALLY, like drywalling if you go past the neck line, or go below the wrist. Such a stupid reason to throw away future opportunity over.
