Um, yea that one is distracting. LOL! And I think tattoos that are drug related, gang related or have 'game' related writing is pretty distracting. But, I'm also very picky about what art is on my body.
Lol I was thinking that was a butterfly then I took a closer look and busted into laughter.

The thing about tattoos is that what might look good on some does not look good on others...

In other words...
Tattoo's are not one size fits all.


The only ones that bother me really are the 'House' brand tattoos.
If you keep up much at all with the Texas boards, you start to see some of the tattoos associated with different 'Stables'.
I believe one of the most recognized and talked about. is the crown tattoo...
but it's not just any crown and after seeing the same one on different girls the design becomes obvious.

I think it was about two years ago I was at The Outhouse and one of the dancers had a crown tattoo, me being the clueless idiot that I am asked her about it.
When seeing the pure fear in her eyes I know she was running from that stable, and anyone that causes that type of fear needs to be put down in my opinion.
No matter what I said would or could calm her down, from what I know she left town that night... so yes that crown tattoo would now distract me.

Yea, I have a few more in mind Grizzly Bear. And yes, Elum, I agree with you on the branded tattoos on providers. I've seen Daddys Girl, Married to the game, crowns, main bitch, married to money, etc. Etc.... All which are distracting and distasteful IMO. The branding ones are definitely distracting in this level of escorting.

Almost two years ago to the day, I was joking around with a guy in chat that was asking about one of the local providers.
When he told me he had sit something up, I told him to make sure to say hi from her pimp Elum...
he did and they called me up... at first I thought she was pissed but then we all just laughed about it.
After that I joked that if I was going to be a pimp then I have to have my own tattoo to 'brand' my girls... hence my current Avatar was made.

We all still laugh about it... and yes I am silly.
i realize this is a very generational thing, but as one of the old farts on the board, any more than a few smallish tats are distracting to me. A butterfly here or a flower there are fine but more gets a bit much.

A long time regular was fairly tat free when I started seeing her but after 5-6 years, she is pretty tatted up now. First it started with the name of her forever boyfriend, then she had to get a bigger tat to cover that one up when they broke up. Then tats for dead relatives so that she looks like a roadside memorial in spots. Then another forever boyfriend later covered up (wouldn't you think she would have learned after the first one?). Then a bird, then a butterfly. A big star with "Death Before Dishonor" on it. Probably a few more.

My other one who retired started off with only a couple but eventually had a huge cross on her back with names and dates of dead relatives on it. This is so morbid. I constantly pray for good health in her family so no more get added and she doesn't need to get a second cross. She also has a dragonfly on her thigh, various butterflies, a couple of birds. Obviously she majored in zoology.

To me, that's all a bit distracting. Perhaps I got more used to them than I might have since they both started off with just a few and then gradually added them over the years. All of my previous ones were basically tat free.

Ok, all you tat lovers can now tell me how wrong I am.

I don't give a rat's ass if you like it, or don't like it, everyday you are judged and first impressions count. A visible tattoo says you are insulting the viewer you meet for the first time; it is not cool except to you.

But, I have people who work for me with tattoos and I understand the past baggage. During trial employment the tattoos were noticed, and the workers were warned. All are now dedicated and valued employees. But I have had to come down hard on all of them: no visible tattoos, not ever. Because, like it or not, you will be judged harshly and with it the company will also be judged harshly.

Even some restaurants have started to have the waitresses cover up, after documenting that they were loosing business. And restaurants are a different culture.

As you move up the social scale in life you don't have to drag your old baggage behind to let everyone see.

For me, the old skeleton in my closet is my time in the Marine Corps and most of the guys in the special units I was with got tattoos. Today, most of my "real world" friends have no idea that I was in the Corps, because I don't tell them, and I don't have the tattoo to show them. People think of me as a scientist only, because that is what they see.

The point: we all can change who we are and what we are in this life. Unless we advertise to others what we were, or always will be.

Although some people do still judge those with tattoos, I think its a lot more accepted now than it used to be. I got my tattoos almost immediately after I began in this hobby and I have succeeded in marketing myself with that certain inked up look. Works for me and I see it works for others. Even nurses, military soldiers, bondsmen, lawyers, wait staff, doctors, etc. Etc.... A lot of restaurants dont like the neck tattoos but even some of those restaurants have become more flexible with this. So I don't see tasteful beautiful tattoos as distracting. I've already listed what I feel is distracting to me...
