Well do you?

Generally i think tattoo's are chavvy, however, i do have one, its somewhere where it cant be seen and it has meaning, rather than some Arabic, Hindu text that no one can understand untill you meet someone who can translate it into English, which is when you find out it means cock hehe

This is mine, actual size is slighly bigger:

Is this your cornish roots shinging through again??


(oh and the tattooo/bodypiercing thing is never a thread with a happy ending)
Shinging?

I never saw the appeal either, but after thinking about it, in great detail for over 4years i decided i wanted that.

Can you guys post pictures of your tattoos? I like body art. I don't have any myself. That's because when I think of an idea, a month or so later I realise how much of a crap idea it actually was!
I would but its on my back between my shoulders just below my neck so its quite difficult to take a picture of laugh

I think they can look nice on men, but I don't like them on women. I think its quite a novelty for a lady to not have a tattoo nowadays!
I know what you mean:

There’s this household item, you may have heard of it. It’s called a mirror. Be careful before looking into it though as you might not like what you see looking back at you. wink
ooOOOOOOOOOOOOooo

To all that have tattoos - obviously none are 'perfect' due to the skin being an awkward canvas I would assume to work on. So, do you notice the imperfections in your tattoos and do they annoy you? I'm quite OCD.
Yes, as they get older, i'll be having my re done next year when i can afford it.

I'm strange I think its a pleasurable pain and I have heard the same from quite a few people I speak to.
Me too, I have four tats and one is a full back piece. The pain is really pleasurable. And yes I guess I am weird
Mine didn't really hurt, just felt like scratching. A few hours later it was sore.

In between my shoulders just below my neck, it goes right over my spine, which he said would hurt but honestly didnt really feel much. Its about the size of a jam jar lid.

Wow this thread has grown a bit since i left it!

Just had a quick read through, i think i sit on the fence really, i've only ever wanted one, in one place and no more.

I didn't enjoy having it done, it wasnt that much of a special event, when i'm at home it serves the purpose of pointing out to locals that i'm not an emmet, so it has its uses.

Its covered up pretty much 99.9% of the year, its something for me and i dont feel the need to show it off, if people dont like it, i'm not offended, its fair enough, as its been said, each to their own and all that.

Some quality over reactions though, keep them coming.
