depends on the subject, quality and placement of the tattoo imo

>>4761I would agree. I don't think I'd get any myself since my tastes changes a lot and I'm scared of getting something I think is neat at 21 on my body only to regret it later on. "~20 years of life is rather short! people can live up to 100 years now" kind of thinking.
I do largely think that tattoos of franchises (games, books, movies, characters, and shit like that) are rather tasteless and I'd tend to respect people who get original designs more over people who just get the triforce on their back. To me it's like wearing Juicy sweatpants everyday except it's permanently on your body, just product placement and all that. Things like that tend to work better in larger pieces or when there's an overall theme, rather than Mario on your calf just hanging out.
>>4779The thing is, it's not really hard to hide tattoos if you try (unless you get them on your face or hands or something dumb like that). Your body has a lot of hideable real estate that, if you know you're going into a profession that discourages them, you can still get that "special tat". I briefly watched some documentary about extremely tatted people, and this guy just bought dress shirts in a difference size/with longer sleeves, so when he reached out to shake clients hands, his arm tattoos didn't show. The people who complain about not being able to "express themselves" by showing their tats don't seem to realize that even though there's a lot of them in the world now, they're STILL in a minority of people. I hope this makes sense, tequila is not my friend.
>>4784>Sometimes people just want a pretty picture on them. I guess I can get it as an aesthetic thing. But one thing I always wonder about tattoos is, why on your body? Why not commission it as a poster or for a shirt or something? Sorry, I guess I just don't get it.

In my eyes, since all my family have tattoos I don't mind them. I really don't, I can't picture my family members without them tbh. I think certain ones are nice with like a lost relative or something but stupid ones like "breathe", bird cages and angel wings are ridiculous.
I know it's "its their bod tho" yeah but you look a twat.
Especially when people get quotations on their chest. I remember a girl I used to follow on tumblr, everyone gushed at how 'artsy' she was for getting a harry potter quotation on her chest… before she bragged how tiny she was and could fit in kiddie clothes…
I just prefer having bare skin. I'd like to leave this world the way I came in tbh. I'm just boring and vanilla but meh, that's who I am.

I like nicely done tattoos that were done with high quality expensive ink like
>>4761 But I fucking
hate those ugly ass green gray faded looking pieces of shit I see on a lot of people. If you're going to get a tattoo, make sure you get a good artist, see examples of their work and make sure they're using quality ink. There's an alternative girl in my class that has a ton of beautifully done colorful tattoos and on the opposite end of the spectrum, there's a girl in my class that has quite a few ugly ass tattoos done in shit ink that make her look like trash.
tl;dr, make sure you research and get a pretty tattoo instead of cheap garbage. There will be a huge difference in quality in a $500 tattoo and a $30 one.

>>6227No, that still makes no sense. Literally anybody can have a tattoo, from gangsters, to soccer moms. you can't group such radically diverse people into labels like cocky and narcissistic.

>>6235Like I said,
>from what I've seenI know that not 100% of all tattooed people in the world are cocky. Just the ones I've interacted with.
Tattoos are seen as a symbol of "toughness" and "bravery" here, and that's why people with tattoos are chosen over us non-tattooed people.

>>4760Good ones are fine, but hardly anyone gets good ones. Also not a big fan of the minimalistic ones I've seen going around tumblr.
Fandom related tends to be embarrassing, but there's a couple that I've seen that look decent.

I've been thinking about getting some smaller white ink tattoos but I'm so afraid of them turning yellow after some time.
Aside from that, I don't really want any. They look great on other ppl and I think girls with tattoos are hot as fuck, but I don't think big, noticeable tattoos would suit me personally.
