I think it's a simple principle. Tattoos get distracting when they distract you.
[I know, I know. I'm the master of tautology.]
This is one of those things that is going to come down to a matter of taste. And possibly, um, "conditioning" (in the psychological sense of the word)... If I were to list "The 5 Best Lovers In My Life", the top of the list would be a lady with no tattoos or piercings (other than her ears, which is so mainstream it hardly counts)--that would be the conflicted Christian lady I've talked about before in another thread or three. The next four all had tattoos (though admittedly, none as extreme as the lady who giteneny used to open the topic) and a few discreet piercings (mostly navels, a few nipples, and one genital area).
Because 4 of the top 5 lays of my career were tattooed, I have to confess that when I learn a lady who's caught my interest is tattooed, I *
perk* just a little bit. It's kind of a turn on. Or, as a psychologist might put it, I'm conditioned to expect a good time between the sheets when the lady I'm with has a tattoo or three.
Granted, meerpatch (the lady giteneny mentions in the first post) is probably a bit much... But frankly I'd want to read her reviews. If they're real good, most likely
Cheers,
