I see tattoos everywhere. Women with calves and full sleeves and tatted out.

I really hate the look of women in wedding dresses or beautiful evening gowns with tattoed arms and back. It just doesn't look right.

It doesn't look right to whom? If it bothered them, they wouldn't have gotten it or covered it.

For real. Plus, women in ball gowns with sleeves can be an incredible look. I think it can still be tasteful, but it gives an edgier vibe. This is a woman that I would want to talk with at a party

She looks like a high-end escort at a finance bro party or a new tech executive's first hot girl he brings to a party to show he has sex now.

If all else fails, turn to misogyny, everyone’s fave pastime.

I’m a man, she has sex appeal but not marriage or relationship appeal

A girl like that has zero interest in you, to have sex or get married, she has her pick of well to do men.

Her tattoo is so ugly - in the middle of her sternum. Nose piercing is cute and I hardly notice it anymore.

I'm sorry to inform you of this, but she has had A LOT of sexual partners.

Why are you sorry? Do you find sex shameful?

I'm not a fan of tattoos, but she's definitely hot. She is a smoke show.

Not really. Many singles have severe aversions to tattoos, often for religious purposes.

Then find another mormon.

By definition, 50% of any pool is going to be below average.

Why no relationship appeal? Bc you assume she has had lots of partners?

I don’t have a tattoo but I could imagine getting one. My opinion about them on others is based entirely upon the tattoo(s) and its meaning/aesthetics. If it’s an interesting looking tattoo that has some kind of symbolic significance to the person, then I totally get it and that could be super attractive. Tattooing is an ancient art form that I respect. But so many people these days seem to be covered with just random and even ugly images, just because tattoos are currently fashionable. I don’t understand that. If I asked a potential partner why they got a tattoo and they didn’t seem to have a good reason for why that indelible image is on them, I would be unimpressed and it would be a turn off.

I think a tattoo may be a rational investment for a low-income individual. When you’re forcibly evicted, you can only bring one bag with you. Any material item can be lost. A tattoo is an irrevocable sign of affluence. It can’t be lost, stolen, or repossessed.

I also think that the past traumas theory holds water. There are likely multiple forces at work.

Personally, I’ma blank slate and prefer my partners to be the same. I don’t judge people with tattoos, though.
