why do men,women all have tattoos on lower back?

Answer 1

Because it's a fad as all things are, as long as it's what you want, do it. I have seen a few men with them there, fair play to them. As with all fads there are people who will go against it and condemn people who follow it. I have tattoos but I don't have any "usual" designs in the "usual" places, but I know people who do and I don't care. People should live and let live, I don't get why people feel the need to impose the feeling of shame on other people for their choices. The "real", "original" tattoos in this world were almost stamped out by westerners making the natives feel shameful and guilty for tattooing themselves, something so beautiful and meaningful was almost lost by people JUDGING others for their choices. I think it's sick personally and I think people should realise that if they're so bothered about what other people do...they themselves have no life.

Answer 2

LOL @ 'tramp stamp'! That always makes me laugh! Wonder what they would call mine?! (What might 'appear' to be a lower back tattoo, upon further investigation, proves to be much more. A full waistband wrapping all the way around from middle of lower back, across hips on both sides, around to the front and dipping down to where there 'should' be pubic hair!)
Anyway, to put my 2 cents into answering your question...some people do it to cuz it's the fad, some people do it cuz they like it and it's a good place for ink if you need to hide it for work reasons, etc.
Do you think we'll ever get to the point as a society where us tattoo'd folk aren't criticized for the 'colors of our skin'? nah...who am I kidding?!!

I have never seen a man with it on his lower back; it is hot if a man moves it up to between his shoulder blades... for a woman, it looks great if you want to show it because it's one of the only places a woman can get a large tatoo without showing it to the world when she tries to wear a tank.
I have heard the "tramp stamp" thing too.. and i don't care.. i am not a tramp... been with the same guy for 6 years but i'm getting one...and i work in an enviroment wear i have to wear suits..

Answer 4

If I was going to have one, I'd do it there because if you wanted to wear a sleevless top to a wedding or something special, a tattoo wouldn't look very nice on your arm. Lower back means you can hide it when you want and show it when you want. I think they are the best place for them.

Answer 5

I'm a girl and I Don't have my tattoos on my lower back! I think they just want it there! I don't care really! it's their body! Just to add one point- EVERYONE doesn't have a tattoo on their lower back!

Answer 6

Yeah, I'm kind of frustrated. I got a tattoo on my lower back before it started becoming "the thing." I got it there because I wanted it to be symmetrically placed and somewhere you wouldn't be able to see if I wore a tank top and shorts.
Now everyone assumes I got it because everyone else did. I've even heard it called a whore stamp, which is especially infuriating.

Answer 7

I would like to know too. There is nothing more common than a tattoo on a girl's lower back.

Answer 8

Well....one thing is that it also doesn't distort there if you should get pregnant, fatter, skinnier, etc. Also, it's a place where you can either show or hide you tattoo depending on the circumstance.

Answer 9
