Fandango Provocatively asks:
Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning or significance of them? If you do have tattoos, do you have any regrets about any of them?
I’m wary of doing anything that can’t be undone, and that includes getting a tattoo. It always felt like something I could very likely regret, so why do it in the first place? So no, no tatts.
One likely regret is that it might have looked attractive when my skin was young and firm, but maybe butt ugly when my skin is old and flabby.
Really, for me, any bodily displays, any form of nudity, tatts, etc. are for the young. Us flabby old farts should keep ourselves covered. I suspect that’s why the fashion industry uses twenty-year-olds rather than seventy-year-olds.
There will doubtless be people who’ll tell me that tattoos can be removed, but no, they can’t. Not removed, restoring the skin to its original condition.
Don’t get me wrong – tatts can be attractive. But it ain’t necessarily so.
Ja, bitte Nein, danke

Yeah.

I never liked tattoos and I don’t think there’s something wrong with it! Everyone has the right to choose even though sometimes I see some that are really ugly and it makes me wonder with which criteria they choose the subject.

That sounds about the same as for my view.

If I had ever gotten one it would have been too small to find it. No, I think you’re right, they don’t think what they
will look like as they age. the butterfly on the top of your breast will be all ugly as it stretches toward your navel.

Yeah I think there are some places you can get away with – but some best avoided!

A good tat is okay. A bad tat is horrendous. See one that make me ask “What were they thinking?” I wonder, “What were they thinking?”

I remember seeing David Beckham’s tatts in a photo. All that money, no taste.

Having a fair few myself I guess I am biased in my view. But to me tattoos are another way for me to express who I am – internally, externally and even culturally.
I don’t have any badly drawn tweetie birds or dolphins though – so that helps 😉🖤

Nein danke on tattoos for me. I think they are unattractive. Both my sister and brother have a couple
I also don’t like needles so that would be a huge problem😉
