Tattoos on Girls: Sexy, Sordid, Slutty, or Silly?

i felt it was rude and no matter how you try to sugar coat it i still feel that way

"They look even worse on AA skin, very ghetto and not at all feminine." -TrailBlazer

so just because a AA person has a tattoo it makes it "ghetto"????? I think i get what he was trying to say.

Not a big fan of tats here either except for providers like Wynter Stark that have them colored and tastefully done on her sides and one small tat around one arm. None on her legs, breasts or even a tramp stamp. Hers are very feminine.

The worst tats IMO are those that are ghetto looking, non colored, on breasts and a mans name. Ick... But to each his/her own. They look even worse on AA skin, very ghetto and not at all feminine. Originally Posted by TrailBlazer

Trailblazer didn't write that he thinks that ANY tattoo on a black girl would look "ghetto" -- in fact, he allowed that a tastefully-done tattoo that's colored in might look good on any girl, depending on the location on her body.

I might differ with Trailblazer's view that a poorly-done tattoo of one dark color would look worse on a black girl than other girls. I think the lighter the girl's skin color, the worse such a tattoo would look.

I'm not sure I'd be able to get behind the Halloween theme SJ described either, but like I said, unless it's really good, or really bad, It's not an issue. Originally Posted by PODarkness

This is the same pretty girl with a lifetime noticeable conversation piece. It would be interesting to see how the conversation changes over the years.

(She has red hair and a nose ring now, btw.) It'll be interesting how a comic book-like Halloween scene fits her personality when she's 50 years-old.

I'm no tattoo expert, but I'd be concerned by how this canvas will look as the body shape changes, the skin ages, and the colors fade... all of which are a given.

Since I was asked, I'm assuming I can be frank here without ending up in someone's dog house?

Looking at each photo and saying the first word that comes to mind?
Cute - Butch - Statement. From there I'd have to know the girl and what exactly the statement was (or what she wanted it to be. sometimes a tat will miss the mark).

Taking a longer look, I see that some of the butch vibe in the second pic came from the black wife beater, and because she looks heavier there than in the other two pics. The tat helps too, but it wasn't the only reason butch popped into my head.

Looking harder at the finished pic, the tat colors are bright, cover large solid areas, and clash with each other, so my first thought is, it would be hard to find clothing that doesn't clash with at least one of the tat colors. I like to see girls wear clothes that complement their appearance and personality, not fight it for attention. She's still cute, but she has greatly limited her range of wardrobe in one of two ways.

If she adds a few more colors with wardrobe, or the red hair, it's the tattoo equivalent of an Hawaiian shirt. If that's a good characterization of her personality, it will work. The key is that it has to fit her personality or its an epic fail

When she's 50, she may have purple hair and be like Ruth Gordon in "Harold & Maude", or if her personality mellows like most people's she might have to limit her wardrobe to black, white, and a few muted pastels, so the colors don't clash. Again, if that's what fits her personality, it's not an issue.

She may have deep personal reasons for her tattoo choice, and if she does and is happy with her choice? More power to her, but we are discussing how others see the art, and nobody else, including me, knows or feels her reasons. I see Hawaii.

Like I mentioned before, when I met H, she was 19 years-old and had only one tattoo, a large, yellow rose on her left back. Looking at her, you're think she wasn't the "type" to get a tattoo (if there is such a thing). (I took the 2 pics on the right 2 days after I met her.)

Attachment 62296Attachment 62297Attachment 62298

When H showed me the sketch of the sleeve she wanted I asked her, "Why Halloween?" Her answer was, "Because I like Halloween." H is bright, but she is NOT a complicated person. To her, her answer was a complete explanation of why she'd go through the pain and trouble to semi-permanently alter her right arm forever. What she really wants is a full-body tattoo covering all but her neck, head, hands, and feet, but something in her brain makes her realize (at least for now) that would be going too far. (The pic below shows her with a temporary tattoo showing the way she wants to eventually look.)

Don't put too much importance in the "wife-beater" tank she's wearing in the second pic. She wore it because of what it said on the front (see below), not the style. She was a little heavier at that time, which was the year I didn't see her and she was fat and happy with her BD. Also, H is super-sweet and gorgeous, but she doesn't have the best fashion sense.

Attachment 62301

H likes to wear brightly-colored clothes, which fit her sunny personality, but you can see what happens when her clothes compete for attention with her tattoo:

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't like tattoos. As someone else here has stated, I've never seen one that enhanced a woman's natural beauty and I've seen plenty of them that detracted from it. I just appreciate a woman as she is. To me, a tattoo on a woman is the equivalent of tagging the Mona Lisa. It just mars the natural loveliness of a woman.

Now, that being said, I have learned to tolerate them as it seems to be the trendy thing to do these days. As a matter of fact, my ATF has a few. *sigh* Would I like her any more if she didn't have them? Probably not, but I still would prefer they not be there.

I will say, however, that a large tat, an excessive number of them and/or if they are visible with clothing on will more often than not put me off seeing someone. Like ShysterJon's SB, she looks cute in the first pic; the other two, not so much. I most likely would not keep seeing her. Shallow? Perhaps, but that's the way I feel about it. And that's what makes the world go round, WALDT.

Personally, I don't mind them, and in some cases I really like them. ALOT. To each his own I guess, but isn't that why we're here? There are plenty of lovely ladies here, with and without tattoos, to choose from. There is absolutely no reason to put someone down or put a label on someone for expressing themselves through body art. If you don't like it, simply move on to the next of many women on the board who fit your tastes.

If girls didn't have tattoos, how would we tell which ones are the easiest to fuck?

I like ink!!

For me, tattoos (especially prominent ones) destroy the innocent "girl next door" illusion of the young providers. Maybe it is because when I was that age (graduated HS 1980), the only girls that had tatoos were biker chicks.
In Jules' case, the tattoos seem to match my perception of her personality (I have never met her), so it wouldn't have a negative affect on me like it would on a sweet innocent-looking 20 year old.

Shhh. It's about to start.

lol

I LOOOOOOOVE TATTOOS!!! I have some....and plan on getting more, and could really careless if the guys or gals like it or not. I didn't get them for you. And if you can put judgement on me for them.....I really have no desire to see you anyway. I'm a free spirit type person.....and if your not, we most likely are not ganna click. I don't like people who see theirselves better than another just because of choices we decide to make. ITS NOT YOUR JOB TO JUDGE ANYONE. Everyone of my tattoos have a REAL meaning to me. Besides that, I'm freaking smoking hot, therefore, I don't think the guys are paying much attention to my tats. And the ones that have, they think they are cool. There is more interesting things about me other than my tats. 99% of the guys I see are repeat clients. Some are very conservative......but they still like me. As hobbiest, you have the right to see any lady that fits your liking, but just because of that, doesn't give you the right to judge another because they are not the type you would see. Ya see, the way I see it, if you folks would stop being so judgemental.....this board might just be ok. I think as humans, its only natural to make judgements.......BUT its when you hold your judgements over someone that you are wrong. Once again.....just sayin

My simi half sleeve: my zodiac:CANCER.....because I'm super serious about it


The tat of my son, who was still born....


I have a few more...not as big as those. But just as much meaning as the rest. You guys keep making your judgements.......your ganna miss out on something really good. Closed minds are ignorant, period.
