Mine are small and strategically located but I love body art period! Are tattoos offensive to others? I took my shoe off at a church meeting and had a tattoo on my toe I kept trying to hide!

Yes tattoos are very addicting. I have 4 and plan on getting a few more. My hubby has 5 and plans on getting a few more himself. Some people find tattoos very offensive so it's just common courtesy to hide tats while in church or at an office job. It's no one else's skin but yours. You have to live with them so you're the only one that counts.
Happy tattooing!!

People will always judge you, if not for your tattoos, then for your hair or clothes or whatever. The only opinions that should matter are those of your loved ones, and ultimately YOURS. I love tattoos! I think they are beautiful! I also don't think people should hide their tattoos in church. But I understand why you would feel like you have to hide your tattoos in church, because people judge. But who cares! Do what you want and what makes you happy, your body is YOUR canvas. If people don't like it, then they don't have to look.

i have 3 right now and i have like 20 more that i have designed. it is to the point my husband is getting me a kit to start tattooing and it has all the things with it to teach you how to tattoo. i think they are great. some peope think they are offencive but they dont realize the art behind them. my grandma and aunty dont like mine that much. my first tattoo was a cartoon devil then i got an angle. the last year i got a butterfly with vines and flowers on my lower back. they dont like the devil because they say it is saitanic but it is my conscince the devil an angle. i dont let it get to me any more though. i think of it as it is my skin and i will do with it what i want. i am the one that has to live with it.

i am addicted!! no doubt about that! i am always excited about getting work done. i don't know of anyone who is offended by tattoos but i know there are a lot of people who don't like them. i never really try to hide my tattoos... well unless i am around my grandparents because i think they would be sad if they know how many and how big my tattoos are. they know i have two tiny ones (that i got covered up with much bigger ones!)

Yes strangely addictive
I had a small one that looked like a fly had $hit on my arm and now have 4 larger pieces
Portrait of wife and daughter both taken from pics on their wedding days. Large starlight fairy on one upper arm. Large lily's on other arm plus names of grand children.
Now looking for next piece. Starlight fairy just finished
Yes some turn their noses up but it's your own life and you only get one shot at it. I would not particularly go for tattoos that are on show but I do like them in the body but respect those that do
I do not try to hide them but at the same time I don't show them off
Well thats just me

Have you ever seen the move The Illustrated Man w/ Rod Steiger.....check it out sometime.
A couple of strategically placed tattoos can be cute, or sexy. But once you cross that line it goes into "trashy". If any of them are visible while wearing normal clothing, they can hold you back in the work place. Besides all that, they are Permanent. Forever! You may be young and cute, right now, but you won't always be. Close your eyes, and picture all those same tattoos on a woman the age of your grandmother. You will be that age one day, and you will still have those tattoos. If you think you are trying to hide them now, you'll really be trying to hide them then.

no i don't think so. There's a preacher in USA who is covered from pretty much head to foot (sleeves and everything) and they all worship him coz he tells God's stories through his body art! Pretty cool. I really want one but not old enuff. Been waiting for ages! Heard bout him on Miami Ink. It's a tattoo shop and there's 'cameras filming it all. Have you seen it?

I never met this guy or woman yet substitute into informed so generally how lots I gave the effect of her. I could have long previous to envision her out and spot what she gave the effect of yet substitute into continually so busy on the time. There could have been a ultimate likeness. What If i did not like the assessment i might think of to myself? So, never went to work out what each and all of the excitement substitute into approximately :)

Over 90% of my body is covered in ink, and I'm going to get more work done on Monday. I'm hopelessly addicted to tattoos, and I love it.
