Somethings are not culturally acceptable here in the US.
Displaying a tramp stamp falls under the same category as wearing something like this: http://m.nastydress.com/pg/6733.html Would you let your 16yo DD wear that out to a movie with friends? |
Ok, sure. But then there was this post:
And the poster who insulted the tattoo I have on my shoulder blade. So, it's on your side, too. |
Sorry - I didn't make those comments. I do think tramp stamps are trashy though. I'm 38 and none of my friends got one back when they were popular. A few have tattoos elsewhere. |
PP. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you made all of those comments. "Your side" referred to the anti-tattoo folks. Honestly, I think there's a huge difference between "I think tramp stamps are trashy" (even though I don't agree with the phrase tramp stamp, I understand that it's a colloquialism) and "I think people with tramp stamps are trashy." It's the latter with whom I take issue. |
^^^ Wow, there were a lot of italics in my last post. Apparently I'm very emphatic about this issue.

+1! They are sooooo 10 years ago. They also fade and stretch = very unattractive. |
ROFLMAO! |
Serious question: What profession is this? |
I'm an arts administrator and theatre practitioner/teacher. Thanks for asking! |

"The "banging you doggy style, everyone knows this" poster is ridiculous and sounds like a gossipy High schooler (which is ironic because you are probably a bitter old nag approaching or passing middle age)."
Ageism -- the last acceptable prejudice in our society today. |

Just know that everyone at the hospital is commenting on your tattoo.
At least a 5 minute discussion in surgery. We will make up stories about its significance and relevance. We will probably give you a nickname about it if it's particularly ridiculous. Unless its military or God related. Those get no comment or more than a passing glance. |
New Poster here. When I was waking up from surgery (and 19 years old), a question about one of my tattoos was the first thing the nurse asked about. She really wanted to discuss it with me and wouldn't stop. So, I just played sleepy until she went away. I can only imagine what they talked about when I was under. |

I love tattoos, including lower back tattoos, depending on how they are done. They are self expression, art. Not everyone likes the same art, and that makes them even more interesting. They are personal to the people who have had them done. Some are god-awful ugly, and some are beautiful. Personally, I'm not a fan of LOTS of tattoos, or huge ones. But when done right, they are striking.
