I have seen many guys with several tattoos on there bodies and i don't know if it works for them. I will have 4 tattoos come April 20. I have a skull on my shoulder, a clown on my left forearm, praying hands on my chest and my next one is going on my right calf. I plan on getting several more. I don't know if i want to cover my whole body but i would like to strategically place tattoos on my body not cluttering one part of my body.

I think it's a matter of strategically placing them. Yes there is the ability to have too many (coming from an avid supporter of the right to bear tattoos) I like a guy with a tattoo right on their hip bone there in front..very nice..and center of the back between the shoulders. Upper arms are nice also, and only certain tattoos on the lower arms. Calves are ok, really out done in the early 90's though. But overall I'd say the upper back/shoulder area, arms...all good areas for tattoos on guys! My opinion of course, people don't have to agree or even like, but thank you for letting me put my opinion out there.

I also have tattoos, and consider them my personal expression. I don't think there is a "to many tattoos" as it is relational to what you want to do with the art work/self expression.
Like you I strategically place the tattoos where they can only be viewed when I want people to view them as I also understand that some people have (like one of the above answers) a bias against them. They view the tattoos and go oh he/she is this type of person and don't realize what we as individuals are about.
Everyone has their own reasons for getting what tattoos they have, and for most people they have a special meaning etc.
So I guess what I am saying is you really need to find your own answer.
Peace

As with everything from clothing to hairstyles, tattoos and their attractiveness or repulsiveness is personal preference. You will always find people who are disgusted by any tattoos, much less a lot of them, and you'll meet people who find them interesting and beautiful. Speaking from experience, my husband didn't have a single tattoo when we married. Now, in a years' time, he has both legs covered and most of his chest covered. I still find him attractive as he was when he had none at all. He still dresses nicely in polo shirts and whatever the same as when he didn't have tattoos, so don't let close-minded people tell you that if you choose to have a lot of tattoos that it automatically makes you trashy, it's just their opinion. Get however many makes YOU happy.

I think if you are questioning getting more done, or what people think of you for them. Then you should stop getting work done. Your tattoo's are a self expression, if people don't like the way we express it then they don't need to look. If you question at all, then take a step back and regroup. I had to, it would be way to easy for me to be covered! So I decided to take a break for a bit and see what new art i decide is an expression for me. As for whats sexy, is all in the eye of the beholder. Anyone can be tattoo'd, but the way a person wears the tattoo, and shows pride in what they are is what makes men with tattoo's sexy!

I don't think that there's such a thing as too many tattoos, it just needs to look well planned and not just a mish-mash of crap, know what I mean? My favorite place is the chest and down the arms. As long as they are nicely done, put as many on as you want. I've got three myself and have plans for 5 more. I love designing them, watching them done, and of course I love getting the work done on me! Have fun with them!!

It all depends on you. I think that each tattoo should have a special meaning--it is going to be with you for the rest of your life afterall. My fiance has two--one in the center of his back and one on his right calf, they both have special meaning, and, while I don't typically go for boys with tattoos, knowing what they mean have made them more appealing to me. I think as long as you get them for a reason, and it is something special to you it can be sexy. Getting something just because you think its "cool" at the time is sort of trashy and wishy-washy to me. And I HATE when people get them irresponsibly...i.e. on their hands, neck, face, or other places that will show and possibly interfere with job opportunities in the future. Just do it for the right reason if you're going to do it, don't do it for how others respond to it.

some people can totally pull off alot of tats, my friend is 20 and already has two full sleeves and various tats in other places, but all of his look awesome and was all pulled together nicely. and one of the tattoo artists at our local shop has a full body suit, at first i thought it was a lil weird but ive gotten used to him over time, and i dont think i could ever imagine him without them. lol.

It is all your choice. You know how many is too many for you. If you feel they are part of your personality, and that is the way you prefer to display it, go for it. Cover your entire body. If you like it, I say go with more.

The correct question is this:
How many tattoos are too many for YOU?
If you think you have too many, than you probably do.
It's more of a personal preference than anything else.
As for sexiness,........ you'll probably attract the attention of someone who likes all your tats no matter where the placement.

I guess having a dad & grandad that served in the navy I still just think of tatoos as a right of passage to manhood!
I would never get one myself (I think?!!) but I like them on guys, it gives a lagitemate reason to stare as long and hard as I want! & is a great conversation starter.
NO tatoos on your face though! eew!
