Tattoos on women look ugly, messy and cheap--no matter the execution, the design, the size, or the location.

I've never met a woman to whom I would have said "you're kind of cute, but oh, I do so wish you had a tat."

Lose the trend, just take care of your body.

Period, that's it? Nothing but judgment, let's go all in on the smug contempt?

Are women with open heart surgery scars not allowed to get a tattoo over it, just so they don't have to be reminded of that pain every time they undress, or is that ugly, messy, and cheap? Does it somehow make them "easy?"



What about mastectomy scars, or tumor removal sites, or kids who used to be preemie babies and still have scars from all the ports and lines in the NICU? Is is just too bad, so sad, you get what you get and you don't get to change it, you gross, ugly, messy, cheap person?

Sorry that you’re triggered but scars and elective tattoos are not the same thing.

Yeah, no. I have it on good authority that "A tattoo on a human body looks like a sticker on a nice car or graffiti on a beautiful building. Period. ...

Try out nuance for size.

Sorry about your trauma but no one is forced to cover up surgical scars with tattoos. If you want to do that, then good for you. you do you boo. People aren’t going to applaud every decision that you make in life.

I don't cover my scar with a tattoo, but I think you're more than kind of gross for criticizing those that do.

So because someone has suffered health issues we all need to applaud their aesthetic preferences? Sorry no.

I don’t want strangers or friends coddling, lying, or placating me simply because I experienced health issues and I think you’re “more than kinda gross” for demanding that treatment of entitled victimhood.

Try reading again. I don't have any tattoos.

It's not "victimhood" for a post-double-mastectomy patient to get realistic nipples tattooed (a common option) so that she can forget about, I dunno, almost dying of cancer for awhile.

Mind you, I wouldn't have been challenging you (or whomever PP) at all if you hadn't laid the judgement thickly, and I quote, "Period." Just say you don't like them generally in aesthetic, although people have different reasons, and there is certainly a range of appropriateness.

Or just claim it that you're evil and own it.

Most are trashy. A small tattoo in a place not often seen, okay.

I’ve said repeatedly that they are not my aesthetic preference. You are continuing the conversation by continually demanding that we lie about it. Because some people who are sick get tattoos to cover up scars?

Sorry, I don’t like your ugly tattoos, regardless if it is covering a scar or not. I’d prefer to see the scar. If you think that makes me evil, then you may want to seek therapy. It’s very abnormal to have such strong opinions about strangers with different aesthetic preferences than you.

Still don't have tattoos over here, by the way. Learn to read, then you can work on minding your own business.

They are trashy, period
But to each his/her own
If I don’t have to look at it, all the better

I would classify a nipple done in a process of reconstructive medical procedures the same thing as any other tattoo. Any other tattoo, I would think is trashy. There is nothing wrong or shameful about scars. I don’t understand why anyone would want to cover a scar up with something that draws more attention and is much worse. However, my opinion shouldn’t stop anyone from getting a tattoo if that’s what they want.

Cheap, trashy women who just want to feel a little more normal again. Total hos, amirite? If they wanted to be able to forget about cancer, they shouldn't have gone and gotten cancer.
