Tattoos?
Your thoughts please . The current generation seems to be inked from stem to stern. Growing up ,I am 68,they were highly frowned upon in my rural eastern slice of NC. The only people seen with them were ex service men usually navy vets for some reason and carnival workers.So comments please what does the group think?

I have never had the desire to get tats. I was shocked when my wife came home after her breast surgery to remove the cancer. They put three black dots on her breast supposedly to align the radiation to kill the tumor.
I just ignore the tats on guys, but I absolutely hate seeing them on beautiful women.

The only one I've ever considered is a dotted line down the center of my chest with the words "Organ Donor Open Here"

At first, I thought this was a picture of a woman, but looking closer, it's a man. 😲

I also see no reason why anyone would or should care what I think of their ink.

Stupid, Trashy and a waste of money.

Mike Tyson most certainly did NOT die this week, nor any other week for that matter.

If younger, still in killer shape and walking around with my shirt off - my Family Coat of Arms. (From the 3" thick book on our Family Genealogy.) Still have it bookmarked.
Now that I'm older and can afford it, I no longer walk around with my shirt off.
Would have been no regerts. Would wear it proudly.

I shake my head at people who are all inked up but can't make the house payment or feed their kids.

There are plenty of folks who get ink instead of travel, big TVs, flash cars or hobbies. Others spend the rent, grocery money, kids shoe money, insurance money or whatever on ink, gambling, alcohol, drugs, legal or otherworld, and all the other weaknesses of people. And so it goes. It damn sure is not a perfect world.

My thoughts exactly Rocky.

I never cared to have one. Both of my grand-daughters do and if that's what they want - OK.

I don't have any tats for at least the reason you don't put a bumper sticker on a Ferrari.

The Good Lord gave me enough moles to represent all the constellations of the universe. My dermatologist told me that he feels more like an astronomer every time I have an appointment!
I suppose a talented tattoo artist could just connect some dots and create a real masterpiece, but I'll just remain content with what God gave me.

None for me, don't care what others do, ladies getting a small one inconspicuous is fine . The thing I do not understand is the folks that look like they fell into a sharp object bin at the hardware store. God gave me the number of holes I need and adding more is not necessary.

Brookwood, decades ago, my younger daughter said I had chocolate chips. My dermatologist laughs at this every time.

God gave me all the holes i needed at birth. NO ONE is sticking needles in me for recreational purposes. I tolerate medical needs. Funny thing is, I used to make my living as a medication technician giving shots etc.

As bad as tattos are, these lip rings and nose rings are disgusting!
What are these gals thinking?

True story for you old timers on hand crafted tattoos. When i was about 25 I contacted acute bacterial endocarditis. They treated me but it kept coming back because doctors really did not know what was going on. It got so bad that my temperature shot up to 105degrees and i started to have convulsions. My BIL carried me to car and then to ER at hospital. They finally figured it out after my GP hollered and screamed at lab tech "Get on the stick or my patient is going to die". They packed me in ice and I was on IV six weeks in hospital.
When my GP Dr Carol a Scotsman listened to my heart he took his pen from his jacket and put a dot with a circle around it on my chest.. I said what's that for doc? He replied its so I know where to listen next visit to save me time. That evening my Jewish cardiologist came in and said what's that dot and circle for on your chest? I explained the whole thing to him. He never spoke but removed pen from his jacket and drew the "Star of David" a quarter inch from Dr. Carol's tattoo. I said what's that for? He replied" the next time Dr. Carol listens to your heart, you tell him he is a quarter inch off and I should know because I am your cardiologist. He was so good he hardly ever went home at night and had his own room in the hospital.
For a long time I think I was afraid to wash those tattoos off in case I got sick again. ----------------------------Ray
