S/O people who think tattoos are trashy (or not)

[Anonymous]

Whatevs. My tattoos give me street cred. I earn six figures per year. Have fun judging people based on their looks, though!

Personally not my thing, but if you must I think location, quality and quantity matter.

Why did someone revive this 2 year old thread?

Tattoos, schmattoos. Who cares?

All tattoos are trashy. They show very poor judgement.

Me first. I sometimes find tattoos trashy but generally like them if done well. Example: tweety bird on your boob = trashy. Artfully done half sleeve = not trashy.

I come from a MC background-both parents were professors (English and Sociology). I have a fine art background and have two masters degrees. Currently middle class (for around here) and live in PG county. You?

Trashy, always.

Same as smoking a pack a day.

We have an excellent young marketing person in our office with a big tattoo spread across her back which extends up her neck. I try not to let it influence how I feel about her but for the holiday I gave her a Macy’s gift card and the other young staff with no visible tattoos Nordstrom cards.

45 - own company

UMC but raised very lower class

Three children in college

How does it feel to be a piece of sh*t? She was probably very appreciative despite what a colossal turd you are. Shows who has the real class.

I used to think they’re trashy but I changed my mind after moving to Florida. I’ve met lots of attractive college educated men with arm tattoos. I am no longer judgmental. Life is long and mostly boring. I am happy to have different types of friends! Life would be so boring if everyone was like the average dcum person.

This. And as a woma who fluctuates between Overweight & athletic, it’s really about if you are fat or skinny. Tattoos on skinny folks look cool- in fat chicks, desperate

Who doesn’t earn six figures in this area? Honestly.
I teach kindergarten and make six figures.

I think the biggest problem is how they'll look when stretching with 60 year old skin.

All tattoos are trashy. I wouldn't hire or date anyone with a visible tattoo. My son has one on his back, not visible except when he's swimming.

I have one.. got it when I was 24 and was having a really hard time in my life.

I am 35 now and want to get rid of it.

I want a tattoo. Yes they are trashy.
