monicaelise Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 It's funny to see how many men think, or say, that tattoos are a "deal breaker". What they don't seem to be taking into account is the fact that most tattooed women wouldn't give them the time of day. The men that feel this way are generally seen as pretty repellant, for a number of reasons, to women who have tattoos. I have several, none of which are visible when fully dressed (but a couple of them are quite large), and have yet to have a man kick me out of bed upon the discovery of them. I got my first one 25 years ago. I'm pretty sure that I'd know by now if they were truly a deal breaker. 1
MrNate 2.0 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Tattoos are beautiful on women. Have you not seen some of these designs??? Like the flower ones that run along their hips and legs...:love: Or the ones they get on their backs or shoulders..:love: Or even the feet. Not only do they look good, but they almost always have meaning behind them as well. I have an aunt with them, girl cousins with them, uncles have em, I do..etc. They're an outward representation of who you are. C'mon now.

(First time I ever used this smiley) Esepcially for people like you who even went out their way to strategically place them. I think they're sexy.
scratch Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Guys, if you were on a date with a girl and found out she had a tattoo, would you continue dating her or no? How big/noticeable would it have to be for you to say no? Just curious. Been thinking of getting a tattoo for years now, but dunno how men see it; if it'd be a turn-off or dealbreaker for most. If I wasn't able to see it before we went on a date because of small size and/or discreet placement, it's almost impossible that it would be a significant turnoff. However, I don't think they are attractive. At best, they won't make a woman less attractive, but cannot make her more attractive. Others may have the exact opposite opinion.
Pyro Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 What would you do if said person had the NAME of a former partner somewhere on their body? Deal breaker? A definite red flag, but deal breaker? Hmm
MrNate 2.0 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 I could see it now.. *doggy style position* "Um. Honey, who is 'Adam'?" :lmao: 1
Casablanca Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 A definite red flag, but deal breaker? Hmm Deal breaker, if they are so impulsive to put someone else's name on themself, oh boy! I do not like tattos at all, if a woman has a couple small ones that can be hid, I'm okay with that, but if the have a lot, a sleeve, etc, I'm passing on that. Not my type of woman.
Pyro Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Deal breaker, if they are so impulsive to put someone else's name on themself, oh boy! I put a hmm because I'm not sure personally. What if she had gotten it when she was 18-19 and I meet her at 26-27? People do some stupid things when they are younger and she may have grown since then and now makes better choices.

Then she should have gotten it covered up! lol who the hell goes through life with an exes name in tact on their body. You can cover it for like $100.

You can cover it for like $100. Depends on the size of it I would imagine. If it is to be covered it needs to look good and natural.
KungFuJoe Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 I just mentioned it because my wife's ex husband has her name tattooed on his chest. She has a very unique name, too. Apparently, his new girl once tried to scratch it off with her nails in a fit of rage one time. 1

Casablanca Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Expensive procedure Should have thought of that before putting someone's name on your body. Women who make that decision aren't my type anyway even if I didn't know about the tattoo, there is usually a "type" that does that, and that isnt my type

Depending on circumstances I can be forgiving and overlook mistakes. You already stated that women with tattoo are not your type so I am aware.

TheGuard13 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 I'm thinking either they get the name of their ex removed...or that becomes their new nickname and they get teased mercilessly about it.

This is precisely what I was talking about when I mentioned the fact that most tattooed women find men who find them (tattoos) to be a deal breaker repellant. FTR, I don't have anyone's name on my body, but I don't entirely understand how that choice represents impulsiveness. If a woman is married to or involved with a man for years and years and that man leaves her...how was she impulsive in having his name tattooed on her body? What "type" of woman is this exactly? 1

I dont know how one could logically come to a conclusion that it would be a good idea to get someone else's name tattooed on them....maybe their child, which I still wouldn't like, I'd hate to see a kid's name while having sex, especially if say it was my kid

That would essentially make every person who ever fell in love or even just drank a beer because they like beer impulsive (since there's no logic in love or beer consumption). I dunno, but your logic seems a bit off here. It's a good thing that very rational, judgmental side is in working order I guess.

And on beer consumption, there has been research to show a glass or two a day is good for you

I just think there are a lot of assumptions, judgments, projections being made on the basis of a little of ink. You don't know the people you're talking about or why they made the choices they have.
A O Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Lil one's here or there are cute. Big one's (bigger than a hand) I'm not too sure about ditto having an ex's name to deal with.
