What is your opinion on body art?

otrdriver's Avatar
Just wondering on opinions on body art. I have seen many ladies with well done body paint and some very elaborite works. Wish i could collect pics for a future project but most all say no pics. I'm really surprised that some gents are put off by body painting, My feelings are in moderation and well done, not talking about both arms, full back etc.

any comments????

I find more times than not body art on women to be very sexy. As always there are exceptions to the rule, but I guess since body art is very popular in my generation, I dig it man!!!!
Yeah I think tatoos, piercings, and all that to be very sexy.
I'll be the odd man out as I do not find any form of body art appealing in any way. Be it a tattoo, piercing or anything beyond the single ear piercing that women in this part of the world traditionally have.

I will write that I have seen some really cool tattoos and when I first got in the military, seriously considered getting a tattoo. However, I am very grateful I did not do it. I do not like tattoos even on guys, just not my thing even though I can appreciate the artwork as long as it is on paper not a body.
As a first preference I rather them not to be covered up in ink. It has not kept me from seeing them.

Our popular culture is always daring the young (and not so young) to defy convention and to strive to be unique, and tattoos are one way to make such a statement. 30 years hence, I’m sure many gals who have inked up their bodies will still enjoy the art, but I’m betting that there will also be many who won’t think it is quite as sporty as they did at twenty-something years old. I have only experienced one tattoo on one woman that actually turned me on. All the rest I have seen BCD (or otherwise) are, at best, unimportant and of no real interest or consequence, or, at worst, a small distraction.

Like ladies who apply for a job at a strip club or a Hooters, women who believe they can succeed and prosper as an escort, are most times genetically gifted in their physical appearance. It is counterintuitive to me that the most attractive woman also seem to be the ones who think they need more/better, and manifest that need with breast augmentation and other cosmetic surgery, piercings, and body art.

So chalk me up as one who supports an individual’s right to permanently mark up their skin with icons of popular culture or writings of Confucius, or whatever blows their dress up--and also as one that will never let a tattoo get between me and a beautiful woman. However, I just think it tattoos are a permanent solution to a temporary desire.
I think the human body is beautiful without modification. But tattoos will not preclude me from seeing a lady.

No sir don't like it. Today's good taste is tomorrow's tasteless. It would never (do mean the word never) come between someone I liked either casual (provider) or personal (SO) as long as it was not inflammatory or over the top in any way. However, why take the chance on doing ink when as I stated eaarlier today's good taste is tomorrow's tasteless.

A provider without tattoos and piercings is like a 50 degree summer day........it is rare but cherished when experienced.

I can't stand either.

I am not usually into a lady with tattoo's. However there are a few ladies who have several of them that I REALLY want to see. I don't really pay attention to them much after the first meeting. The first time we meet though I am always curious to see which ones they chose and the stories behind them. Always leads to some interesting conversation.

fubar my frined, how could I forget our mutaul friend the beautiful Lisa Love? As i stated it would not come between anyone I enjoyed being around or with. It's just that I always think what will those tats look like on this smoking hot girl when she's 50, 60, 70, 80...? I guess I am just old fashioned about that but I do find it incredibly sexy!!!

When a provider is lovely in the buff because she was made that way, that is completely the cat's pajamas as far as I am concerned. Nothing beats a woman with curves and a come hither look about her who has on nothing more than a guys dress shirt that has the last two buttons done with a single ear peircing in each ear.

Sorry let me clear the drool off my chin...

Body art and tattoos are two different things to me. If a woman or man wants to put something artistic that's personal and defines them, I'm completely cool with that. If a person wants to inscribe someone's name in calligraphy on their body, I'm generally not feeling it. It makes me think you are someones property...and you very well may be. When you have more than one name on your body, I supposed it's a little confusing to decide who you belong. Body art = great. Tatoo inscriptions = not so great. Personally, I haven't found anything in my life so overwhelming that I need a constant reminder on my body!
