I have two tats. I may choose to expose them weather permitting and the type of event. I would have my whole back covered if I found the right design. I see nothing wrong with either women nor men having tattoos.

it is not a good idea

I am amazed many on here don't like tattoos. One would think big pricks would like little ones. For the record, I say live and let live, tattoos have been around since cave paintings. My tattoo stops me being able to swim in the Middle East or any anti semetic Country or indeed wearing only a vest in Plymouth

Its a high risk strategy getting a tattoo. If you change your mind you can get through a whole pack of brillo pads getting rid of it.

Does a bird (perhaps a swallow) tattoo on the neck mean anything?

Is it a gang thing?

May be a chain gang thing. Often seen on ex-cons.

swallows are traditionally a maritime tatt. they signal a return to land or a safe return home. i guess some inmates desired a safe return home as well which is why they get them.

i like traditional irezumi koi tatts but would never get one because of the association with yakuza. they are quite common in the west but if you see someone with a koi tattoo in china or japan it's serious business. in fact you can't even go into onsens in japan if you are tattoo'd which would be a serious downer.

Good thread.

I remeber the single days...when you saw a girl out with slag tag...ie one at the bottom of her back with a thong poking above her jeans....ie Fever in remedies Tivvy.

Pardon my ignorance, but is a tramp stamp a particular type of tattoo?
