Okay, here's where I'm going to get blasted.
I can't stand to see any of that crap on a woman. To each their own and all, but nothing turns me off more than seeing what some people do to their bodies.
Hell, too much makeup even turns me off (and I hate when I smear my lipstick )
That said, maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and decide to get my balls welded together. I hear Litany's running a special this week.

Cin said:And for those who don't like women with tattoos, I suppose that it is just that very reason and my independent and defiant nature that drove me to get it.

True@1stLight said:The problem with that is being defiant anymore has become "cool". Therefore, in most cases in today's world, (western anyway) being defiant isn't actually being rebelious. It's just doing what everyone else says is rebelious so that you can be rebelious. Lol, it is quite amusing how it has turned back on itself. In any case, tatoos are hardly independent and defiant anymore. Being clean cut anymore has almost become more defiant than those things because it is seen as being bad, as opposed to popular.
I think lately they do. The new trend of pierced bellybuttons, and tattoo's in 'seductive' places is because they want to be sexy or cool. And there is nothing wrong with that.but most people don't get them to be sexy, cool or different.

Freya said:I'm shocked at the people who cite 'looking bad when you're 80' as a valid reaosn not to get a tattoo. What if you don't live til you're 80?! What a waste! Get tattoos!
