    Tattoos on the chest is a negative. That's like putting lip stick on the Mona Lisa. They should be on the lower back or a tiny one on the ankle. Also, when you're hitting it from behind, the shoulder/back tattoo is very distracting. A definite no no. Now for a woman... err, maybe I've said too much.

    Definitely, dude. It's like, you're tonguing this... bag of sand, you know... but it's not just a plain bag, it's a bag with a picture on it.

    whomever said a girl with a tat on her chest are skanks is one of the dumber things i have ever read on this message board in 5-6 years.

    ive known skanky girls that have them and dont. and i know girls that dont sleep around at all that have no tats.

    thats a huge ASSumption. and a wrong one.

    you can say your not attracted to that type and thats fine. just because you probably like your average girl that listens to your average music. tries to fit in and where the normal style clothes is also fine. but come on.

    C'mon Jackie, "tramp stamp"? Have some pride, "arschgeweih" is by far the best term I've heard for those tats.

    I've NEVER seen a tattoo that approaches the art that (insert your God's name here) made when he/she/it created the human form and skin. My feelings on this increase exponentially when we're talking about the female human form. And because of their permanency, I therefore think tattoos are pretty damn stupid. Not quite as stupid as drinking and driving or smoking, but up there.

    I respect the fact that others may strongly disagree--or even deride me as I am deriding them, and I really respect the fact that others try to live their lives "outside the box" of where conformity has led us..............still, nevertheless, I think tattoos...especially on women.......are about as dumb as dumb can be.

    And if I haven't made you hate me enough with my words, I'll leave you with som Don Henley lyrics: "You Yankees are so silly about matters of the heart. Don't you know that women are the only works of art."

    These girls are just so hot in their tattoos. How so
    Cuz they're pretty.

    Hot girls can style themselves in whatever way they want. They can shave their heads and have spikes coming out their shoulders, guys will still give em a chance if they're the 36-24-36.

    A man has a right to desire tattoos on a girl's boobs. And a girl has a right to meet to meet that demand. As long as the two keep themselves happy with it, its okay. Every culture has a sub-culture. Or in a free country people that just make personal choices.

    The only "problem", if its even one, is the tattooed people fighting the "conceptions" or misconceptions and wanting exceptions made for them from all people everywhere...They KNEW what they were getting into before they did it. They probably knew likability might be LIMITED mostly to those that already like them. As long as they accept that, if they're secure in their decision, and realize they're mostly only going to please like-minded people and not gain many converts, its okay. That can be applied to anything of course...

    I'd like to see studies between tatooed and non-tatooed people. The company I'm in has fired 4 women total the past 2 years, including one this week. 3 of them happen to be moderate to heavily tattooed, and their stories were all the same - inconsistency, lack of focus, and DRAAAAMA (not with us, but the ones in their personal lives they had no problem sharing with anyone who'd hear them....) The one that didnt have any just sucked, but she had no drama. They'd probably be the same type people if the trend to get tattos never occured, but at least they've added them as a sort of indicator :p

    I guess I'm saying tattoo art - okay. tattooed backgrounds - subject to get reviewed

    I see that nobody is complaining about women wearing makeup or having pierced ears or nail polish, etc. Cosmetics is body painting. Humans have been getting painted and tattooed for thousands of years. This is all about culture, customs and perceptions.

    Some history and background on Cosmetics

    History of Cosmetics

    4000 BC The Egyptians: Here we see the first archeological evidence of cosmetics. It seems affluent women applied a bright green paste of copper minerals to their faces to provide color and definition of features. They used perfumed oils and painted eyebrows on themselves with cream made from sheep’s fat, lead and soot. It might seem to some that they used the perfumed oils because of the face makeup.

    The East 1500 BC: In China and Japan rice powder was used to paint faces pasty white. Eyebrows were shaved and plucked, and teeth were painted gold or black and Henna dyes, were used to stain hair and faces. In other words, teenagers looked exactly as they look today.

    1,000 BC Greece: If you were an upper class Greek you probably wore a wig to hide the fact that you seldom bathed. This was true of both genders. Again everybody wanted the “real white” look given by wearing chalk or white lead face powder. (No report on what the incidence of lead poisoning was like in ancient Greece). When women wanted a “little color” they chose ochre clays laced with red iron for lipstick (Mmmmm, tastes good!) They spread their palms with reddish henna, supposedly to look younger. These practices roughly coincide with the perfection of soap.

    100 AD Rome: Platus wrote "A woman without paint is like food without salt,"
    These super-civilized ancestors put barley flour and butter on their pimples, and sheep’s fat and blood on their fingernails for polish. Their crowning contribution to cosmetics was the practice of taking mud baths laced with crocodile excrement for who knows what purpose. Men frequently dyed their hair blond, supposedly to look like the young guy in the Dell Computer commercial. The practice of hair dying among men and women alike was curtailed, as dyes were so caustic as to cause existing hair to fall out. They had specially dedicated slaves to apply their cosmetics.

    14th Century: Cosmetics were regarded as a health threat because many thought they would block proper circulation. In Elizabethan England dyed red hair was fashionable. Well to do women wore egg whites over their faces to create a whiter countenance and also slept with slices of raw beef on their faces to get rid of wrinkles. I think some English playwright wrote something to the effect “A beautiful woman is like a delicatessen…” . Then again, maybe not.

    15th -16th Centuries
    In Europe, cosmetics were used only by the aristocracy. Italy and France became the chief centers of Cosmetics manufacturing. The French perfected the art of creating new fragrances and cosmetics, by blending ingredients. This laborious process gave birth not only to the means for producing modern cosmetics, but also for murder, as arsenic was sometimes used in face powder instead of lead, simply to kill the wearer faster.

    17th -18th Century: Cosmetics are now in use by all except the very poorest classes of society.

    Red rouge and lipstick were used extensively to suggest health, wealth and gayety.

    19th Century: France again. They develop chemical processes to replace fragrances made by the natural methods. Zinc oxide becomes widely used as a facial powder, replacing the more deadly mixtures of lead and copper previously used. Other poisonous substances are still used in eyeshadow (lead and antimony sulfide), lip reddeners (mercuric sulfide), and to make one's eyes sparkle (belladonna, or deadly nightshade. Hey, it’s important to look good!

    The 1920s in America: Cosmetics and fragrances are manufactured, and begin to be mass marketed. It was now okay for women to drop the Victorian image and dress up and use cosmetics, because it made money. The mass appeal and market for cosmetics was assured with the advent of the dime store/department store/chain stores which proliferated during this decade.

    1927: The chemical method for permanent waving is invented making it easier for many more women to have “naturally” wavy hair.

    1930s: Movie stars such as Mary Pickford, Theda Bara and Jean Harlow begin to influence the style and use of makeup. Finally the “white look” starts to lose ground to the Hollywood “tan” look. In 1935 Max Factor of Hollywood introduces pancake makeup because of the adjustments required for photographing faces for film. Finally, women with food on their faces again.

    1950s: We begin the modern era of the cosmetics business as we know it. Face powders and makeup, tanning oils and fragrances are mass marketed to an essentially “new” post war society that is tired of shortages. Popular sponsors of radio soap operas transfer their ads to the new medium of television.

    1960s: As in the Fragrance industry, this is a time of change, not necessarily for the better. Purple lips and Egyptian eyeliner make a comeback, butterflies show up painted on virtually every part of the body. Let’s not forget false eye lashes. Food makes a comeback as botanical, and vegetable (carrot, watermelon) ingredients combine to create a back to nature look, smell, and attitude.


    1970s: Certain ingredients are banned from use in cosmetics to protect endangered species, and other species currently used as “lab rats” by some cosmetics manufacturers. This age of environmental concern fosters the start of many movements demanding disclosure from the cosmetics industry asking questions like “What did you do to those poor innocent puppies and bunnies to get this cosmetic product approved”? “What’s in it, what does it do, where does it come from”?

    1980- Present: The key seems to be “diversity” as new looks, cosmetics and beauty aids come together to form an enormous industry of over $20 billion in sales annually. We are aware of cosmetics, fragrances, hair and skin products every day as we are heavily influenced by ads in print, and on television. Now we turn to the Internet.

    It used to be that you had to go down to the flower store to buy flowers, the book store to get a book, the drug store for your prescriptions, the computer store to get a computer, the car lot to buy a car. Now items, which we wouldn’t have thought of buying without personal sales counseling a decade ago, are bought thousands of times each hour, on the Internet. It is this way with cosmetics, fragrances and colognes.

    Whereas your general store, or department store operating during the first half of the 1950’s might be able to stock 90% of the hot products and hot brands of the time, and have inventory “in the back” in case product suddenly ran out on the shelves, things have changed. There are more products, more brands, more advertising, more disposable income, and more demand for products advertised in magazines, billboards, television and the Internet. No brick and mortar (retail store-in-a-building) merchandiser could have everything all at once. The name of the game now is “e-tailing”. The consumer can buy virtually any product, style, color, size, make, brand, price point; and have it shipped within 24 hours. This frequently represents less buyer time expended than a trip to the local mall. The convenience factor of dealing with your favorite e-tailer means a lot. Selecting cosmetics is oftentimes less buyer-intensive than getting the ripe tomatoes from the produce department of your local grocery store. You don’t have to drive, squeeze, or wait in line.

    less vanity = lower standards, self expression = personality = better conversation. Works for me. Personally, I'm also a big fan of the tongue piercings, and all that they imply, activity-wise.

    I wouldn't really scribble with make-up or nail polish on my boobs, but maybe I'm just a "conformer". :D

    But seriously, you can wash off make-up and remove nail polish. Women's bodies are a piece of art in themselves, why hide or distract from that? And while not ALL girls with tattoos on their lower backs are not skanks, most atleast DRESS like skanks, otherwise you probably wouldn't know they had a tattoo on the small of their back.

    Non-skanks who want the tramp stamp suffer from unoriginality.

    I don't really dig big tatoos on a woman, but what's inside ultimately matters.

    On second thought, the acceptable size for a boob tat is proportional to...

    women are like flavours. sometimes you crave for some skankiness, but a taste is just a taste, it doesn't mean it has to become your staple diet.

    MR. MEOWGI do you take this personal?

    If a woman want a tattoo she should get one, I do not care, their body their choise. That being said, I'm really happy my girl doesn't have one, because i do not like how it looks.

    I love tattoo's. I don't like the multi-coloured ones though. The best ones are just black.

    Furthermore, I think girls with tattoos is a sign of strength, since it is painful to get one in the first place. This lets me know she can stand the pain when I ram my huge...Oh nevermind.

    Here's a hottie with cool tattoos: Megan Fox
