Tramp Stamps

[Englishman2010]

Can't say I'm a fan of them myself either, but some are and it's up to them I suppose. They don't look too bad on some men, but I'm not a fan of them on women.

I went to the local supermarket during the recent heatwave and couldn't believe how many grotesquely overweight young women are tattooed these days - not very attractive

I recently saw a photo of my ex Filipina g/f, and she has had a particularly nasty looking tattoo done on the side of her neck, around her ear and all down her neck and shoulder - well rid of her

I agree the hot weather brings out the bellies and tats.

They're vulgar on both sexes. I'm amused at the so called "tribal" ones - I can't understand what empathy a hooded British yob might have with someone from the Brazilian Rainforest. I also wonder if the ones in Hindi (Beckham etc) or Oriental characters are actually obscenities in those languages

At what age will these morons start to regret it ?

I'm sure there are many instances where the owner of said oriental tattoo actually has 'Chicken Chowmein and Egg Fried Rice' inked on his arm thinking it says 'Peace or Love or whatever...'

As one of those morons who have tattoos (3) I will never regret it. I thought long and hard (12-18 months) before getting each one of mine. None are visible due to the company I worked for at the time frowning on them for officers if they where on show. Each one has a specific meaning to me and me only. And yes I have a chinese one as well which I've has translated several times by independent sources and is correct.

It is everybodies right to express themselves. The picture of tattoos you've posted would in all likelyhood be covered up for 95% of the time so there is no really "problem" is there.

As I was told don't get tattoed where it'll sag later in life because god knows what you'll end up with!

Funnily enough, Ian ... back in late 1997/early '98, I dated a woman who happened to sport a tattoo - which I wasn't aware of until some time into the relationship - and I remember its discovery somehow worried me, tbh, since I was 53 years old ... and she, 41. Without going into detail - my misgivings turned out to be not entirely unfounded.

Scarred for life - not too many years ago it was mainly sailors who got tatted up

The beachfronts at Boracay and Puerto Galera are full of henna and real tattoo stalls. Many Pinoys are heavily tattooed.
Some of them look OK. I don't mind the intricate arty ones, but I can't see the point of just having a name scrawled on your arm or back. I wouldn't have one myself, but it's individual choice, and if someone has given it proper consideration rather than it being a drunken mistake, fair enough

A mate of mine has them all down both arms and on both hands, he likes the ones on his arms but really regrets the ones on his hands as he can't cover them up.
