Yes. They are sexy, especially when done right and with confidence. A sleeve is sexy, a polka dot the size of a cranberry is less so. I like tatoos better on men, though, despite having some myself, trampstamps included.

Not at all. That being said, I would not reject a woman based just on a tattoo.


Some people aren't too fussy.

This is related in it's own way. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good place in Seoul to get a tattoo removed. I figure it's not something they'd have a lot of experience with. What can I say I was 19 and stupid. That being said, I'd get another one. I like them and they're addictive, I'd just put more thought into it and not get a big a$$ fairy on my ankle.


I had laser treatment in Japan, at the local hospital. It was about 1/4 of the price I would have paid in UK and far more professional. Go to your GP for the best advice.

We all make mistakes. Being 19 and stupid is far more colourful than being 19 in a twin set. Life is for living.

"You permanently stamp yourself with some lame image that passed through your brain as being attractive or cool and turn it into something to show off to people."

That's a rather grand generalization. The tat on my right calf was ten years in the thinking, finding, and tweaking of exactly the right celtic cross.

The ink on my lower back is deeply personal, and not for public consumption.

Yes, there are lots of people who get drunk on Friday night and end up in a shop. But there are also lots of people for whom tats are a deeply personal expression of who they are and what they are about.

Thank you poet, I could not have said it better myself.....

My tattoos all represent family in some way shape or form, I come from a very tightknit family, and they can't really be seen unless I want them to.

Not all of us want to show off our ink to the world.

Are tattoos hot?




I rest my case. Damn right they are.


dude, i didn't know my picture was all over the internet
as you can see my this photo, my tattoos are an expression of who i am
some people don't like tattoos, some people don't like michaelangelo's work,
but it's all art, it's all beautiful and it's all expression
that is why my body is like a canvass and i chose to get the tattoos in the above picture

if any of the ladies who like cool tattoos and cool guys want to hook up with me, it's all good, send me a message

I like GOOD tattoos. Mr. Cool Ice, not so much.

One of my friends in college got a great little skull with a fez on it, partially in jest, but it was great in a sexily ironic way.

I knew a girl in Chicago who had a women of mythology sleeve and some back work. The 'Lilith' on her back was super sexy.

If you're not at work check out the girls, or boys here...

There are all kinds of sexy ink there.

Yeah, i have a tramp stamp.. it was cool at 17 when I got it... not anymore. Does give a man the abiltiy to "aim" better, sorry that was sort of grose.


Seriously, not a woman. Who writes this kind of stuff? Plus, the spelling is atrocious.

I love my tattoos. I got them all when I was 19, in a bad relationship, and kind of depressed, and had a whole lot of disposable cash on my hands. But that doesn't mean they aren't works of art or that they aren't deeply personal. I wouldn't change my past for a second, and I like my tattoos to remind me of the events in my life that made me who I am today.

And no, there are no names on my arms. I got tats of the old school variety because I love the history and culture of tattoos. I got tattoos because I love tattoos, not because I wanted something that I thought was important to me permanently emblazoned upon my flesh. It's a valid reason to get a tattoo, but my priorities change from time to time, so I just like to appreciate the artwork.
