[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just thinking about this question tonight at dinner. Wife and I were waiting for a table and in walked this stunning female in her early twenties And dressed to kill. As most of us guys were checking her out simply because of her beauty, she turns around and has this huge tattoo of angle wings on her back. 
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![/quote]

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. [/quote]

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

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

Maybe the point is just to irritate you.

A whole room of suitors interested..... and then disgusted. All because you had to get a giant tattoo that you couldn't even see. In your twenties it *might* seem like a good idea, but she WILL regret it if all kinds of good men reject her and she is unmarried and childless at 40.  [/quote]
Or maybe she'll wind up with a good guy who likes tattoos. There are a lot of them around, contrary to what a lot of PPs believe, apparently. Or maybe she'll end up with a good WOMAN who likes tattoos.

Or, maybe she doesn't want to get married and doesn't want kids. This whole part of the conversation is incredibly misogynistic. [/quote]

Why would you take that risk?[/quote]
What risk? Finding a good guy (or girl)? Why do any of us take the risk of finding a good mate? That's a silly question. :D[/quote]

The risk that perfectly good suitors would be repulsed by your tattoo and you would remain single.  :roll: Has the ink entered your brain reducing your comprehension capabilities or were you never that sharp to begin with?[/quote]
If they're repulsed by tattoos, then they're not "perfectly good suitors" FOR HER, are they? Different people are suited for different mates. My reading comprehension skills are just fine, thanks; how's your critical thinking?[/quote]

+ 1. 
I didn't get my first tattoo until I was 45, but I wouldn't date anyone "repulsed" by tattoos, because I refuse to be with anyone that judgemental about how someone else chooses to decorate their body.  My tattoo was a six hour long, carefully choose spiritual journey,  and represents something personal and important to me. These things are not the same as someone having body oder, as a pp said, it's the same as judging others for a hair style or clothing. It is each person's own body and choice. I'm always amazed at the shit people waste energy judging.
I'm a part of a huge creative community and a large portion of people in it are inked. Some are young and some are older, but all of them are spending time creating art of some sort and many, many are giving back to the community in volunteer work. Times have changed and most of the people you are judging aren't the drunk collage idiots getting a 2 am tattoo.  They're actually contributing to society,  have jobs,  careers, and love. Your lives would be richer and deeper if you took the time to get to know what's inside people. [/quote]
I work in a creative field too and many of my colleagues have large and multiple tattoos. But I will say that I have noticed that those who are continually getting more and have covered places visible when wearing work clothes, have tended to be those who have dark histories or struggle with mental illness. I mean, hell, myself included as I've been a long time sufferer of depression. [/quote]
