It's like those older women with those tiny tiny nose rings. Looked cool in 1982, try to hide it in 2015. It's going to be the same thing with tattoos, except they will stay the same size

You Could tell everyone was thinking the same thing as I. What a waste of a body on someone who's already lucky enough to be a 10. How do females think they'll look when they reach middle age or old.

What a waste!

Someone else's body doesn't exist to look good to you. It exists to please the person living in it with how it looks. If this person likes the tattoo, then it's not a waste.

+1000. Saying someone wasted their body is disgusting. That's a human being you are talking about.

Ok then wth is the point of a giant tattoo that you can't even see polarizes everyone who sees it? Answer seriously please

I used to think tattoos were for drunken sailors. Now I think tattos are for drunken college co-eds. Either way, I think the person was drunk and stupid when getting the tattoo.

Pure skin here. Tattoos are trashy and passé.

Those of us speaking out against tattoos are trying to perform a public service-- preventing people from getting them, so they won't regret it later. It's just a fact that lots of people think they are stupid. You can "stick it to the man" all you want, but the man doesn't care. You're only hurting yourself.

Wow, such a sexist attitude. You're checking her out, but then as soon as you don't like something about her appearance that means she's "wasted" her body???

Maybe she doesn't care if she looks good to you. Maybe the tattoo has meaning to her or she just plain likes how it looks.

The worth or not of someone's body isn't determined by how much it pleases a table of strange guys in a restaurant. Or by anything at all, since I don't think bodies can be "wasted", but even if they could some guy wouldn't determine that for a random girl.

Who are you to decide what someone else will regret? If you think you would, then don't get a tattoo. But people are different and gave different opinions. I don't have a tattoo, but I've made plenty of life choices others may think I'd regret. They'd be wrong. So might you be about this. Why should someone make their decisions based on your assessment of their possible future regrets?

Fixed typo. Sorry, on phone.

All of you whining and concern-trolling about what we tattooed people will look like when we're old, here's an answer for you.

And my favorite response to such a ridiculous question:

[Anonymous]

I went to a water park with my kids. It is always strange after a long winter to be walking around and seeing crowds of people walking around in bathing suits. I was shocked to see that the majority of the people had tattoos. They were everywhere. Both single people and and moms and dads. I felt like I was the only person in the park without a tattoo. I think that I had no idea how common tattoos are. There was nothing unique or individual about any of them. It was just a big blur of tattoos. What I don't understand is the desire for them because they are so permanent. People change their mind about style everyday. Cut your hair short one year, dye it pink the next, wear flare jeans in the spring, skinny in the fall. Why do people think they will love these markings on their bodies in six months.

I agree. I find tattoos low class.

So don't get one.

I haven't and I won't and I will continue to have an opinion on the matter.

Why does it matter to you at all what's on someone else's body as long as they're not asking you to put it on yours?

What does it matter that someone doesn't like tattoos?

This can go round and round all day.

Well, the people who don't like tattoos are
a) telling other people they should stop getting tattoos on their own body, and
b) judging people who get tattoos for being "trashy". WTH? I didn't know people could be 'trash'. Interesting attitude.

The people who do like tattoos do not seem to be either
c) telling everyone they must get one, or
d) saying everyone without a tattoo is somehow inferior/worthless/messed up/bad.

See the difference?

I ask again, why do you care enough to do a and b above?

And that's actually why I tend to like people with tattoos... because usually (not always) they are more free spirited and less uptight and don't care what other people do or don't do. But somehow on here people think women who have tattoos are victims of abuse. How sexist is that? So men who have tattoos are just fine. But women who have them must have experienced trauma.

I knew a woman once who had a tattoo on the back of her neck. She was tough and smart and secure in who she was. She didn't care what other people wore or how others did her hair. She wasn't a victim. She was never abused. And she wasn't catty like so many people on here.

Would I get a tattoo on the back of my neck? No. Do I make assumptions about people who do? No -- except that they must have a higher pain threshold than I do.

Maybe the point is just to irritate you.

I have a small one in a hidden spot that I got when I was 18. I'm glad mine is hidden, as I've worked in a really conservative and judgmental field. I also feel embarrassed for people who don't even give themselves the option of being able to hide theirs.
