Anyone have one like this?
Does it hurt? That skin is kinda sensitive.
Any ideas?
dooooo eeeet

a shark would be cool.

That's actually a good idea. Someone told me a four-leaf clover as well.

Tattoos in the pubic region is kind of a girly thing, I would be real careful about what you choose.

I do alot of things that are considered girly. I think it's cute on other guys and I think it would be cute on me.

The only part that will hurt is detail, outlines. The coloring doesnt hurt not even a pinch. I have 2, 1 on each arm and will be getting a 3rd soon.

My gay college roommate had a tattoo in that same exact spot.

It was a tennis racket.

I'm guessing he either liked tennis or just hitting balls.

I remember when Tattoos were a way of standing away from the crowd, now people are using them as a way of fitting in.

Perhaps some are. I won't be "fitting in". That's for sure. I'm no rebel but this one will be covered. It's just for me.

There's probably a good picture of Hobbes out there (but a quick GIS didn't find one I liked enough to make permanent), or has C&H been overplayed?

I'm thinking a moogle, this one in particular - moogle
But everyone is telling me tattoos are trashy and I will regret it and don't do it and they are ugly and it's a waste of time and this and that.
When enough people tell me something I start to think may'be I am wrong.

Not a big fan of the moogle, myself. Tatoos generally *are* trashy, though with your specific choice of placement, it's not so much trashy as slutty, and anyone who sees it will know that anyway ;)
Seriously, if you have gone from tigger to a moogle in 12 hours, you probably don't have enough investment in this to be pleased with it once you have it.
All, imho, of course.
I don't have any, but thought strongly about getting one when I was 18. Knew exactly the design, and it had personal significance, wouldn't be visible, and would be small and tasteful. 10 years later, I don't really care that I didn't get it, and I doubt it would matter to me if I had gotten it.

Yeah, thats why I have mine. Wearing normal attire, people cant see either of mine anyways. Will be getting a 3rd before I head off to war again.

yep, if they can be covered up with normal clothing then no one can discriminate against you... like some would.
