Not on your life! They turn me off. They look tacky.

In my working years, I was OBGYN nurse. One of our pregnant patients had a butterfly tatoo on her low right abdomen. It got larger as she did and when she delivered you should have seen the stretch marks on the butterfly wings. Not a pretty site!!!

yes i've always wanted one. a honeybee on the front of my shoulder. i'm just worried that it would look like a fly when i was 70. lol

Just think of all the girls now who get "tramp stamps" on their lower backs. In 30 years more or less they will be old ladies with sagging tramp stamps!!!

Absolutely not.

I'm sorry girls, but that's funny.! Tramp Stamps! We did use to think when we saw girls with tats as tramps , didn't we? lol But in all seriousness, I have seen some really pretty tats on ladies that were really pretty. I can't stop laughing!!!!!! ;)

I agree with everyone that thinks when we are old and saggie the tat would be old and saggie too, and they do fade with time, My DH has had his redone and it still faded out. I think some take it too far, some are not too bad, but IMO the girl on LA ink is very pretty but way too many tats
