I'm old to enough to remember that the only people who had tattoos were sailors, truck drivers, felons and carnies.
shareYou got that right. But if the kids want to get them, I don't give a damn.
shareYeah. My dad was in the Navy during WW2, and he had a medium-sized tat on his forearm that looked kinda like the Cracker Jack guy on the box.
shareI got loads when I was a kid. Then my mother washed them all off and told me not to buy that bubblegum again. Apart from that I'm a blank canvas.
What strntz said is pretty much how I feel about them. I think tattoos make people look a bit dirty and B.O ridden.
No. Almost got one years ago, but didn't.
They're everywhere now. Many are very interesting and well done. There's something about neck tattoos that bothers me, but that's my own personal preference.
Im 58 years old and I don't have a one. I have no interest in tattoos. I will say, that women who have many tats are so undesirable. I'm just real old school.
shareI don't either. They seem expensive and an odd way to express oneself.
I lump tattoos in with cigarette smoking, something weak-minded people do because they desperately need to fit in and be accepted by some sub-group.
But I respect people in general, so if that's their thing, that's o-k.
I'm actually quite attracted to a couple of women who are heavily tatted, but I think it's more that they are pretty and smile a lot, rather than all the ink.
