that isn't how i interpreted it.




lol, he's still a piece of shit and you support him, or maybe he just isn't secure in his sexuality. your defense of him is pretty weak though. so let's say my 85 year old grandma has tattoos, are you two really going to judge her because you may be sexually interested in her?

I'm not necessarily defending him, just not agreeing with your viewpoint that he is a bigot.

I mean, really... do you not judge others for their style choices and no longer find them attractive due to said choices?

We all want to find attractive as many people as possible, it's a natural thing, it's nice to enjoy the view versus being disgusted by everyone around you. Regardless, we'll all find ourselves surrounded by unattractive people, due to our established opinions on attractiveness.

He simply voiced one of his attributes he lumps into the attractiveness debate.

If you are arguing we should all be stoned because we dare find people either attractive or unattractive... well, stone away.

Do you find the following bigoted in some way?
Ex*
I don't like those with red hair. I don't really care about men, but I don't find women with red hair attractive.

* example only, possibly a terrible one at that. Some red heads are smoking hot, others... not so much.

Or, dare we dredge up another debate: fatty versus normal vs starved-looking.

I guess some people find this offensive, probably because they hold the "beauty is found in personality, not in appearances" belief. Well, I have nothing to say to such types. And even then, lest we not forget the topic at hand here, even THOSE types are also judgmental and choosing what is and isn't attractive, because we all don't like certain character traits.

Perhaps that poster is slightly insecure in his sexuality, and thus that is why he felt the need to specify the need to point out his lack of interest in men having tattoos. Or perhaps he just wanted to be specific.

lol, wtf?

you "don't care what other dudes do" but do care what every random woman does?

do you realize how much of a piece of shit this makes you?


Forget it. I'll never be interested in you with or without tats. Go find another man to drool over.

Oh, you cheap bastard. The tipping apologists are going to push over your cows in the middle of the night.

:p

Well I was saving gas by driving a bike, but these assholes kept yelling at me to get off the sidewalk, so I did, but by then I got tired, it was hot you see, so I walked the bike home in the street.

There was a line of people honking supporting me, it was awesome. Felt like a champ after 3 miles.

It was probably approval of your spandex and rounded elbows.

how much would it cost to start a tattoo removal business. What's the cost per square inch? Anyone have one? I know nothing of tattoos, nothing about the demographics and type of clients.

I guess a lot of it depends on what type of career you want to pursue. Obviously, a chef can get away with much more than an elementary school teacher.

In my sister's case she works remotely from home. She can get away with it, plus she can cover up her tattoos when she needs too. People who get tattoos on their face are just asking to be unemployed for life. Unless they are rock stars or tattoo artist.

Why limit your opportunities needlessly? Are tattoos really that important to you that you would potentially limit your opportunities in life?

My sister's kid has some of the dumbest fucking tattoos I've ever seen in my life. I have no idea what she was thinking when she got them... only conclusion I can come up with is that she wasn't thinking.

You had me onboard until you said "nearly".

100% of tattoos look bad on women, period. Any tattoo of any size on any body part makes the women less attractive. Butterfly on the ankle might be a .01 deduction, but it's still a deduction. If a hot woman gets a tattoo she can still be hot, but she'll be less hot than she was before. It's a law and there are no exceptions. Not one. In all of human history not one woman ever became more attractive by getting a tattoo.

What real opportunities does having tattoos in places easily coverable limit you? I have yet to work a real job that I can't wear long sleeves 100% of the time. I worked with people for years that didn't know I had tattoos. I have been limited zero by them. Oh wait, I might not be able to get a job at Best Buy because they require a polo... My career is over.

It's also universally accepted that everyone with a tattoo feels regret.

Entirely depends on your culture and what it values as beauty. The women of Papua New Guinea, I believe, undergo multiple days of 12+ hour tattoos all over their face, as that is what is considered beautiful in their culture. Similar to lip and neck stretching that happens.

To considering something as a deduction of beauty is merely your own conceptions of what is beauty. To say that in all history is just so completely ignorant.

What a sexist thread.

Tattoos look bad on every person, female or male.

Can't think of a single human who looks better, sexier, kinder, or smarter wearing a tattoo.

I don't have any tattoos so I don't have this problem. I can wear short sleeve shirts to work when it's hot out. I can change into my gym clothes at work and leave the building without fear of someone seeing any ridiculous tattoos painted on my arms or legs because I don't have any. :p

I find tattoos to be a reflection of a woman's personality, taste and ambition. If it's a crap tattoo, she was on a bender. Or she has bad taste. Either way, I don't want a part of it.
If it's a good tattoo, a good selection, it gives a little insight on how much thought they put into things.

I also wouldn't hold it against them if they age with one. I am not sure why people make this a point. It's silly. "Hey, that tattoo is going to look like shit when she is 50".
If her skin is okay (genetics, care, hygiene), it's going to be okay.

At 80. Who cares? Skin is going to look like crap anyway, even with the genetics of a goddess. Making even less sense, is identifying that as deal breaker. If I am in my 80's, married to the same woman for decades...and all of a sudden I decide her appearance isn't what it used to (tattoo or not), I will be the one with issues.

My guess is this guy is doing pretty well.

This has nothing to do with tats, but it sums up people who judge perfectly so it can be applied here
