Tats, sleeves, socks, why the whole body covering attraction

My middle brother has them and they all mean something to him, or so he says. He didn't get inked up until after mom died though because she would have jerked a knot in his head, LOL!

My parents do not approve, I assure you lol!

I have one tatoo on my shoulder I got on a drunken stupor when I was in AIT in FT Gordon. Other than that I agree tats are just stupid.

Getting a tat while in the military is almost a rite of passage

It's all them flashy video games they played as children.

Well at least they ain't shooting up the place like Duke Nukem. But they make it real hard for me to enjoy ogling them at the local Sidelines bar and grill in Canton. There is one that is just gorgeous. Then she sharpies up her legs with some new age design and topped that off with a nose ring. At least now she won't try and root out under the fence anymore.

I'm a pastor and I must admit I have 8 tats all gotten before I entered the ministry. I will admit they can become infectious. About a year and a half ago the Father (God) laid on my heart that we as human beings cannot make perfect what He created perfect already. Genesis 1:26. The ones I have I'll keep as a testimony and I'll no longer indulge in such a thing again.
I'm in agreement with the OP.

I have 2 Tattoos my military logo and the Lord's Praying heads, both can be covered up with a Regular shirt. My kids have none!

I don’t have any tats. My GF has a small, little one on her wrist. I think it looks stupid, but it’s small. She wants another one. I told her I’d break up with her if she did lol.

I'm 50, and have always felt that a few tattoos are normal and expected on some kinds of men-- felons who've served hard time, soldiers, and sailors (including civilians on cargo ships and such.)

Being covered in ink looks bad on anybody, and especially women. And I felt this way 30 years ago when the trend of the "tramp stamp" on a girl's lower back was getting really popular, and among the pretty girls at first (before every trailer-dwelling dollar-store shopping (or shoplifting) heifer got that kind of tat, too.)

I'm a boomer and tattoos in general don't bother me. I'm not a fan of gang, face or leg art, but a nice sleeve on a good looking woman stirs me in a good way. I have completed getting one on my shoulder.

I have several that all have very personal meanings. Ie very close friends that died way too soon. I have my entire back done but all of mine can be covered up with pants and a t-shirt if i need to look professional

Tats on a woman are a real TURN OFF for me I think they look trashy...........................

Tattoos don't bother me as long as it's not head, face or neck.
