Girls with Tattos

[GTR King]

I don't know why!!

 

No matter how Fit/Good looking a girl is, if they have a few Medium to Large sized Tattoos for Example Down there whole arm etc it Usually put me right off and I just friendzone them...

 

So for Example if a girl was interested in me and was 10/10 and had a Tattoo on there thigh/Down one Arm I would say no and feel like we could only be friends even if we had loads in common and got on well with each other.

 

Had quite a few girls interested with few tattoos and I pied them off.

 

My friends say they could be the perfect person for me and should give them a try.

 

Why am I like this am I being to picky??

 

Anyone Else feel the same?

I am confused do you like women with tattoo's or not? I personally do not date woman with tattoo's because I feel like they're branded themselves. Boy oh boy if the got their ex-boyfriend on them who wants to look at that while making love or etc. But that's me. Stamp tramp in rear and one in the front. Arms, neck, hands, fingers, stomach, legs it just makes me feel sick. But hey some like it and some don't including me. I knew a guy named snake and the's what he was tattoo artist.

[some_username1]

Ugh, just my personal opinion but I can't stand them! I find tattoos on a woman's arms or back incredibly masculine and very off putting. He latest craze seems to be getting your breast tattooed near the cleavage.

 

The only tattoo I find to be anywhere near feminine is a band of some sort around the upper thigh, sort of like a garter belt.

 

But y'know it's horses for courses. I wouldn't mind half so much if it wasn't for the fact that literally every woman over 30 on online dating seems to have one and depending on the size and position it rules her out as a potential dating partner for me.

Before I date anyone I usually asked them if they have any tattoo's on them?

^^^^ 100% Agree... I can't stand them either.

 

Yes, I broke up with a woman that was really pretty and nice, but had this horrible HUGE tattoo going up her back and around the side of her rib cage. She was otherwise a very pretty woman. I have no idea why she ruined her beautiful body with that ugly thing. If she had a small one on her thigh or back of her shoulder, maybe I could have dealt with it, but again this thing was HUGE and a real turn off.

 

My present long term girlfriend has no tattoos and neither do I.

[Highndry]

Nothing ruins beautiful skin like a tattoo. I guarantee a large percentage of these women will live to regret their choices when they get into their 40s and older.

indeed. I don't like tats on women either. big turn off for me. if it is a small tat hidden away somewhere that may be ok, I dunno.

The only people making more money than tattoo atrists are tattoo removal artists- and from what I hear it isn't a pleasant experience at all.

Probably is generational but none of the women I dated or mated with had tattoos of any consequence. I personally find the body art these days, tats and piercings, to be very distracting. Not my cuppa. Plenty of other guys like it though. Different strokes.

 

Back in the day people did body art to individualize and stand out. Today it's so common that one who has none stands out as different. Reading the thread reminded me of my exW getting her version of body art, eye liner tattooed on, so she didn't have to mess with it every day.

agree. if I was going to get a tat I would get a smile tattooed on my face, then I would walk around with a permanent sh*t-eating grin

[RecentChange]

Funny, I remember my now husband commenting once when we first dated that I was his dream girl - except I didn't have any tattoos

 

Some love them, some hate them. My sister is very attractive and also has large colorful tattoos, they get her a lot of attention, I am sure some negative, but also a lot of positive.

 

One thing I am sure of, she didn't get any to try to make men find her body more physically appealing. She got them for her, they mean things to her - and despite having many, her husband has even more.

 

Different strokes for different folks.

[Daniel95]

I study Filmmaking in an Art College. I personally don't like tattoos but 98% of women here have at least a butterfly in their backs, and the strangest one is kinda like a tribal arrow pointing down there

[SouthernIslander]

Meh, I don’t think anyone is wrong for having preferences. If you don’t like women with tattoos, don’t date em.

[Leigh 87]

Wow, this rant has inspired me to go and get another tattoo:love:

 

A colourful bird tattoo on my front shoulder.

 

My tattoos make me happy. Not sure why they do - they just do.

 

I am not one to regret anything. Even the most painful break ups or bad choices in men, or the stupid things I have done (all of them) that led to great pain and suffering and set me back years of quality of life. Except I do regret my poor health in my 20s and teens that made my hormonal disorder worse than it could have been had I taken care of myself.

 

Will be getting my other upper arm done too. I prefer geometric lines/shapes/dot outline patterns that are not really filled in. This suits me, as I couldn't tolerate the pain of a proper large one:lmao:

 

Mine on my upper arm is in my avatar. I also have a little fairy on my other shoulder blade. I will graduate and be in a professional job so I had to get all mine done in the "employable" locations aka - that can all my covered with short sleeves.

 

My tats do not hold meanings really. I just get an idea and desire and go with it. Usually they do reflect something in my past I have an affinity to, but no deep thought or meaning were attached to any

 

I went on a date once after my first tattoo; a compass on my shoulder blade, nicely done too. Guy immediately said that he would not be going on a second date due to my tattoo:lmao: Although I do wonder if he was actually into me enough, would he have been able to get past it

 

I got my first compass tattoo on my shoulder after a bad date. The guy p*ssed me off so much that I walked past a tattoo parlour and thought yep I need to feel some pain right now:lmao:

 

Have been hooked ever since:love:

 

I am so sad you don't want to date women like me, our loss:lmao:

 

In all seriousness though - I see nothing wrong with not wanting to date anyone for whatever reason! Even if they have big nose, or big feet or WHATEVER - ALL are totally valid reasons that do not make you an @sshole. I personally need a spark right away or else I refuse to grow into finding men attractive and have been critizised for my method of selection on here (loveshack) numerous times in the past.

[losangelena]

Well, you rate women on a numeric scale, and that's already quite shallow. I think discounting someone for having a tattoo is also pretty shallow. What if it was a large birthmark or something they didn't put there themselves? Would that also disqualify them?

[GTR King]

I don’t mind small tattos etc & Birthmarks are Fine...

 

I just hate big tattoos or when a girl has a tattoo for the sake of it puts me off..

 

I prefer tattoo free girls find them more attractive, I feel you don’t need ink on your body to make yourself look good

 

I am currently talking to a girl (Agreed on date) who has a small/medium tattoo bottom bit of her leg (only found out last night).

 

If it’s just the one tattoo I am fine with that, any more she will have to wow me if we are to go on more than one date

I don't like them. Can't really imagine myself in a serious relationship with a gal who has them... firstly, I feel they are kinda like a facebook page you can't turn off. Also, they have a dark history - porn, drugs, gangs, and slavery. Tats on a gal make me think of who or what her master is. What does she owe allegiance to? These thoughts are not what I want crossing my mind when I go out on a date...

[2much4]

I love tattoos. Some are works of art.

But I don't have any myself and couldnt date a guy who was full of them. Maybe a small one somewhere.

[Chilli]

Mate , nothing to why about it.

lf you don't like tatted chicks you don't like em, so what.

Me l love her with some tats , but that's just me l have a few and love a few on my woman, so what.

But if you don't , same , so what .

 

There's plenty of girls out there without tats.

[Scarlett.O'hara]

I can understand why you might have that perspective, however, there is a lot more to the practice than you may be aware of. For example, in Maori tradition the moko (tattoo) is an incredibly sacred and traditional practice. It signifies ancestry and the life of the individual.

 

There are numerous other examples of the practice of tattooing in other cultures, but I think this best exemplifies what it means for most people when they get a tattoo. It actually has personal significance to them. A visual expression of part of themselves, through a often painful process. Perhaps as a commemoration of a person, event or life experience. Sometimes it is a journey of spiritual growth, artistic expression, or numerous other reasons.

 

The symbolism may not be clear to anyone else but the individual who gets it, but the point is, you have to really want it to go through the process. So if you are out on a date with a woman with a tattoo wondering who her master is, the answer is simple. She is her own master.

 

I am not advocating that anyone here date someone they aren't attracted to. If tattoos are a turn off for you, that's fine, don't bother. Just try to be respectful towards those who do have them because their tattoos likely mean a lot more to them than you realize.

[sabaton]

No matter how Fit/Good looking a girl is, if they have a few Medium to Large sized Tattoos for Example Down there whole arm etc it Usually put me right off and I just friendzone them...

And there are women who've friendzoned you for whatever reason that they found to friendzone you. People are allowed liberties when it comes to choosing their dating partners, one guy's ''friendzoned'' girl is another guy's dream girl, just like it happens with women.

 

 

 

So for Example if a girl was interested in me and was 10/10 and had a Tattoo on there thigh/Down one Arm I would say no and feel like we could only be friends even if we had loads in common and got on well with each other.

I'm not sure about this, it's just a hunch, but the fashion model who gets rejected by one guy out of the tens of thousands of tall, handsome, muscular men with thick wallets who'd love to date her even if she was covered in tats - maybe she won't break down crying about being rejected. It will be though on her. But I'm sure she'll be alright.

 

 

But that's just my impression.

 

 

Had quite a few girls interested with few tattoos and I pied them off.

People have the right to have standards, that's fine.

 

 

My friends say they could be the perfect person for me and should give them a try.

Seems like your friends have some smartness on them. But you have the right to not be attracted to girls who have tattoos, if that's your dealbreaker, yes.

 

 

Why am I like this am I being to picky??

How should I know?

 

 

Anyone Else feel the same?

Nope. I've dated girls who worked for the suicidegirls brand, and I was as attracted to them as I was to a girl whose skin is tattoo-free.

 

 

Probably is generational but none of the women I dated or mated with had tattoos of any consequence. I personally find the body art these days, tats and piercings, to be very distracting. Not my cuppa. Plenty of other guys like it though. Different strokes.

 

 

It's a generational thing, yes, just like most women under the age of 30 are waxed or shaved these days.

 

 

it would take me a long time to spot a girl who doesn't have a tattoo, and being picky to the point that a girl having tattoos would make her unattractive to me, would kinda lower my dating pool massively considering something like 40% of millenial women have at least one tattoo, and last I checked as I was shaving my face, I'm not Brad Pitt, so.

It's just a preference- would you say the same to a woman who doesn't want to date overweight men?

 

Something natural like a birthmark wouldn't be a problem.

 

And to be fair you often find a lot of women with tattoos are looking for the same in a partner -- I have no tattoos and am just looking to get out what I put in, unfortunately that is getting harder to find as more and more women opt for the needle in public parts of their body.

 

The whole tattoo craze seems like a temporary fashion statement to me like men with beards - except at least with beards it isn't permanent. I have always played the long game in life and wondered if I could live with my choices in 30 years, a lot of people only think as far ahead as tomorrow- if this wasn't the case then tattoo removal places wouldn't be doing a roaring trade!

Tattoos on a woman ..... INSTANT turn-off.

 

Oh and ladies, about your tats .... they do NOT get "prettier" with time.

We really don't care lol.

 

No need to tell u? It is the same as pointing out things that do not need t be pointed out... like hey, your job won't ever pay well, or your choice of investments are bad... It is called unsolicited advice, which generally people who have nothing better to do give out:lmao:

 

Those of us who love our tattoos and love tattoos on men/our partners really don't register inane comments like this. Why bother? Do you think we got the tattoos to be cool? LOL

 

Not everyone lives their lives for "when they get old" anyway.

 

Plus not everyone bothers to expend the energy of regret over trivial things like tattoos that get wrinkly. There are real problems and true hardships older people face or have faced by a certain age that register a lot more than a faded wrinkly tattoo.

[Gaeta]

For what it's worth my daughter has 75% of her body tattooed. All of tattoos were done by the best artists in the field and she appeared in national tattoo magazine a few years back.

 

 

 

My daughter is the sweetest, kindest, most generous friend and girlfriend, and daughter. She is loyal to a fault, reliable, family oriented and of service to everyone she loves. She's also fit, climb, powerlift, name it. If that's the type of person that turns you off I'd hate to ask what type attracts you.

 

 

 

When my daughter was dating she was flooded with messages from geeks and nerds who thought she was cool.

 

 

 

That being said you're entitled as an individual to not like tattoo on a woman but I'd like you to think twice before judging their character because of some ink on their skin.
