My husband got a tattoo,

and I find myself extremely turned on by it. :crazy: Now he wants two or three more. :rofl: What is it about men with tattoos that's so damn hot?

just not sure what i want to get yet

I have none, but I would like to get one, eventually.

actually one was a continuation of my sleeve onto my hand, plus one on my inner forarm. :P

Wouldn't mind seeing those.

I can upload them to photobucket and PM them to you no problem...give me a few. :hi:

i think the pics will be way big and hi pixel because he likes to see detail up close for his own reasons. I am a picture altering illerate so i am not sure i could downsize them properly. i should take normal size pics of them now they are healed .

That'll get you all the chicks. :thumbsup:

will the babes on the beach flock to me? :bounce:

:bounce:

that would be EXCELLENT! :D

I also need the local shop to stop being so damn busy so that I can actually get an appointment once I have money. x(

Well worth it, but spendy, nonetheless.

I have a few things I need to spend my next few paycheques on first. Sadly body mods must take a backseat for the time being. (Though piercings not so much, sine they're much lest costly.)

on men and women! :loveya:

I mean, check this guy out...



what a hottie, eh?

:P

x(

Good thing I'm perpetually poor or else all my money would go for more!

Finally. :bounce:

Are you scared? :scared: :7

Most of them don't even hurt that much. Getting one really close to your armpit does hurt like a bitch though.

He said top of the arm was a piece of cake, but the inside hurt and bled quite a bit.

Upper outer arm, forearms, neck, back were all easy.

sporting tatoos, somehow. (assuming you guys drive a minivan, seem to remember you saying so at some point.) If not, my apologies.

my husband would never get a tatoo, but he does want a Honda Odyssey. ;)


I seem to be attracted to sideburns lately, myself.

I plan on getting tattoos on each tricep. That doesn't sound like it'll be a pleasant experience, haha.

I have an armband (easy) with the kanji for "strength" inside (painful).

I'm sure I'll be able to handle it.

The other, not so much.

I have no idea of the degree of pain involved, so I ain't gonna get all worked up about it beforehand.

I'm gonna get this:



On my bum. Kinda high up, like at the belt line.

Dig the Floyd!

:D

Inner upper arm (like an inch away from your arm pit) really, really sucks. The ankle sucks too. Other than that, that pain's not bad at all. I have seven tattoos.

it is so sexy

i love men with tats

How much does she weigh?

:P

i just wish he'd carry me around sometimes

:P

Never thought to ask that the first time I replied.

No special significance. He found a design he liked and the artist altered it a bit. It's an armband. He wants one on the bicep part of his other arm, too. That one would be larger (and not an armband). I'll try to remember to take a picture of it, to share.

I'm a proper little nerd, I guess.

:shrug:

I took a former HS teacher to get her first tattoo.

;)

And I don't have an answer for you. I think we need to conduct a research project.

And yes, I think some research would be most helpful and enlightening. }(

Musicians or actors?

:P :P

tattoos don't do anything for you. Get your own research project. :D

If he's nice, I can ignore the tattoo...

:P

and then we'll have to start all over again. ;)

I could start over several times.

:evilgrin:

You can have your musicians. I swore them off anyhow. :P

:P

Want me to send you a pm with proof? ;)

We had a lil art work done over the last week.


= 5 new tats

I love your little guy, there. That turned out very cool!

He added 3 but I only picked up 2 more last Thursday. I have an appointment to recolor one of my old tattoos next on Friday.
My house mate added a new tat yesterday.

I just need the money.

Do you know what & where your next tat will be?

with "For my father" written in Gaelic around the top.

It's just a matter of getting the money.

I'll need to get that one at the beginning of a visit ~ if I do it at all.

:hi:

This is one of my new tats ~


:hi:

and i like them! very nice!


now you've got me thinking about it a tasteful little ankle tattoo... :o

This little guy is my first ankle tattoo

:thumbsup:

Thought I'd be a contrarian

Really don't like them. Artistically cornball, usually, basically marring the natural body with really bad art. Want to make art, use a canvas or something more suited.

Also, a fashion cliche of the current moment, meant to signify rebelliousness, but if everyone is doing it ....

Remember it costs about ten time the amount of money to take them off with laser treatments that it did to put them on.

I decided I wanted a tattoo 30 years ago when it wasn't a fashion statement. BTW I finally did it 6 years ago and I'm not sorry I finally did it.

Some tattoos do suck. Some are done crappy. Others are done beautifully. The reasons for getting one can vary from "it looked cool" to a memorial for a lost family member. Also, for most people, they don't signify rebelliousness.

so a big fat :rofl: to your statement of tattoos being a "fashion cliche of the current moment".

The tattoo makes him look just like Johnny Depp!

:rofl:
So Lara...why don't you surprise him by getting a navel piercing. :9

The navel sits in the middle of one of your body's natural hinge points. A piercing only heals properly if it's somewhere that doesn't move around.

Navel piercings heal extremely slowly--a year isn't uncommon--and they don't heal very well regardless.

The other site that sucks for healing is the nipple, especially on a woman. You're continually brushing against it with your clothes, seat belts, what have you.

If you can swear off sex for a month, simple dick piercings (Prince Alberts, frenums and lorums) heal real well, as do hood piercings. Facial piercings that don't protrude into the mouth (eyebrows and noses) heal okay. Ear piercings that don't hit cartilage heal well.

The only moving part of your body that heals well when it's pierced is your tongue. Tongue tissue mends very quickly for reasons I do not know, but it does. OTOH, the holes also grow closed faster than anywhere else on your body--you can lose a tongue pierce in a couple of hours.

I never had many issues with cartilage piercings. I think a lot of the problems come from people that are told totally wrong aftercare, get the wrong jewelry, or have some sort of metal allergy.

Anatometal is pretty much the "gold standard" (even though the guy who runs it despises gold) in body jewelry; his shit is made to the same standards with the same alloys as biomedical implants.

The place I go for ink has a piercer who uses Anatometal titanium and who sells it to the other piercers in the area. They're using APP aftercare guidelines, they're using titanium jewelry (the most biologically-compatible metal there is) and they're still having problems.

'Course, they're also piercing lots of soldiers--and soldiers do a lot of situps. This probably has more to do with the piss-poor success rate of this piercing than anything else. The same jewelry in a civilian heals better, but they're still not real happy with it.

Seriously? There are lots better places to get pierced.

...I always thought I'd get a broken or a torn barcode tattooed on my neck to carry a sign of a defective product.


On the other hand, if I want a picture on my skin, I can ask some gangbanger to tag me. Yawn.

:rofl:

(ever see the Star Trek Voyager episode "The Q and the Gray"? Best episode ever!)

to begin with. A tattoo doesn't improve one bit an old fart who smells like cigarettes and does laundry once a month. If you know what I'm sayin'.

There's no excuse for a shitty tattoo.

Johnny Depp: hell, yes!
Larry the cable guy: fuck, no.

But the tattoo and the man it's on are definitely significant factors!
