So, like the title says, I've noticed that half of arfcom is all sorts of dirty inkies, and the other half enjoy not being a dirty inky.
So, let's see a poll.

To each their own, but I don't find them attractive AT ALL.

Well of course, his are tastefully done.  The goose is almost lifelike!

Never really liked them but they look great on that "Twin Peaks" new girl.

I feel like they aren't conducive to a general appearance of well-being. One of the things I've noticed with people who have a significant amount of
tattoos is that they generally seem to be a bit more quirky than your average person. In terms of employment, I'd definitley think twice before hiring
somebody who had a significant amount of tattoos unless my place of business was a tattoo/piercing facility. I think it's important to note that, although
many people with tattoos/body piercings are psychotic, not all of them are. However, most people with tattoos do tend to be on the wild side. YMMV. I don't have tattoos;
I never will.

No problems really, keep it professional. None of my ink is visible with a T-shirt.

I have been considering a full sleeve though

This is me ^^^^^^^^^, both arms 1/2 sleeved. I actually took a work shirt in and had them draw a line 1/4" above, the bottom of the sleeve. I love tattoos but they do effect things, esp when it comes to management positions.

It's a personal decision, but I personally would never get a tattoo or a piercing and I hope my kids feel the same way, except for ear piercing for my daughter.

They help to identify scumbags.
I have never met a single person who had tats and/or piercings that was a decent individual (they may have been wealthy, or had a decent job....but they were still scum).

It's not my thing, but by all means go for it if you like it. Different strokes for different people and what not.

I've seen pastors that are tatted up and criminals that are clean cut. Tattoos and piercings aren't a good method for determination of someone's character.

That said, tattoos and over-the-top piercings will cause me to instantly lose interest in a woman.

Women with facial piercings do it for me  I don't know why but a nose stud or spider bites just does the trick...

Edit: maybe it's because they show a history of bad decisions

Makes it easier to ID criminals and mentally defective among us.  I hope they can get the help they need to deal with their personal demons.  Until they do, I know who to avoid.

Not for me. But I really don't care what others want to do to their own body. However it is naive to believe you won't be judged by some for your ink or piercings. No amount of inky crying will change the fact that people are constantly looking at your dress, hair, facial hair (or lack there of), shoes, jewelry, car, teeth, smell, etc etc and making judgments about you. Body decorations are probably not much of a benefit in a professional setting.

Should be an option for "Stupid, but I don't care"

I wouldn't ever get any.   And I personally consider them unattractive so it's a point against a girl I'm interested in.

My last girlfriend had two very small, discrete tats that could easily be covered in almost any setting, in that instance I could have cared less.

I love inked up girls. I only have 6 tattoos so far, all of them covered by t shirt and jeans.  Waiting on the day I get into a management position before the sleeve gets done.

Used to be that tattoos and piercings were an easy way to identify the deviants. Now, it's a sign of somebody who wants to fit in with the cool crowd.

Tats are kind of like cargo pants.

Fine with both...except gauges. That shit is tarded.

No tattoos yet, had a few different piercing in high school. (Wasn't goth or emo.)

I don't think anyone should have tattoos, and I think tattoo shops should be banned and closed.  People who already have tattoos should be taxed per square inch of ink.

Agreed.

Last week while I was standing in line to check out at a gas station some Old Man asked me, "Why does that girl have tarp grommets in her ears?"
Cracks me up every time I think about it.
