I’’ll see a smoking hot chick at the gym or running and then as soon as I see ink it’s an immediate boner killer for me. They might as well tattoo “slut” on their foreheads.

Like if a 350lb woman, or "girl", without tattoos would incline you to think "yeah i'd fuck her" versus a 115lb woman with sleeves? I find it still odd you'd entirely, at a beyond 100% level, disregard the influence of face or personality. You directly implied it yourself: if anyone has tattoos, no matter what, they're a boner killer / incompatible. They could be the cutest girl on earth, with an AR15 tattoo on their butt-cheek, and still be unattractive, per the laws of analytic reductionism under your specific statement. You can argue all you want that this is a strawman argument, as is fashionable in gd, yet analytically, it still begs the question. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
If you want a serious answer: Partly, it's because of a Half-Joking Anti-Ink crusade, started, or led by Dkprof. And Partly, because it is a physical manifestation of the downfall of our society. Allow me to elaborate: There was a time when only Sailors, Marines, Motorcycle thugs, and Convicts, had Tats. (Maybe a few Soldiers too, commemorating a night in Bangkok) -And that was just fine. All was right with the world. Then, it became the trendy thing for every wannabee badass, hipsters, Skanks, Bros, the dudes that wear Tapout shirts and drive lifted truck rolling coal... It turned into a horrible cliche' Cliches ain't cool. The tattoo fad illustrates the fact that white culture is lost and adrift. It isn't the problem. It's merely a symptom. In an age where marriage is dead, faith is dead, and the American Dream is dead, people are desperately latching onto anything that can give their lives "meaning". . People have lost hope for the future, so why not spend their money on frivolous self decoration. Why not focus on crudity and self destruction, rather than self improvement? In our "Classless society" People cannot help but self segregate, and it's a relentless race to the bottom. Our modern life is physically too easy, but mentally too tough. Drug use, Tats, bizarre sexual compulsions, liberalism and other mental issues, are the inevitable result. I don't judge. Life is tough for all of us. Whatever gets you through the day. |

Because GD is full of judgmental pricks.
I mean, not everybody on GD is a prick. But if it were possible to take an honest poll, I'd guess that there are easily triple the number of pricks on GD as in any other gathering you might happen to find them. Remember that one party where the dude that nobody seemed to know got so drunk that he called everybody out, tried to fight half the crowd (even the girls) and ended up puking on the welcome mat? He's a GD'er. In fact, the only place where you could find a higher concentration of total douchebags would be at a Metallica concert, and I think we all know how those are. |

Get tattoos, grow a beard, wear trash bags and chop your dick off for all I care. I just know that's something I wouldn't want to do. I planned on getting tattoos for years but I also like drawing. I designed a full back piece for myself and some other pieces. I just never found the right artist to apply them. My taste in art has changed over the years and now I'm extremely happy I didn't waste the money on them. If you have tattoos and you like them great. I don't care but I'm definitely not going to hold it against you. That doesn't mean I'm going to like them, its just something I'm going to ignore about you, unless you are the .1% that has a tattoo I consider super original art, then you might get a positive comment before I move on to whats important, how you act and treat other people. |

Sometimes, hold on to your fe3ls, people post stuff for fun. Making fun of filthy Inkies is kind of fun and almost no one actually cares whether you have an awesome tribal design or a "warrior stamp." It's just silly fun and you're not a protected class. Related, you tend to get a lot of lawyers, MDs, and LEOs on this board who interact with "the inked and pierced." I too would associate face tattoos with someone who is not a gift to civilization. YMMV There are, of course many productive inkies. I even have some friends who "have ink." They do great as laborers or similar blue collar workers.   This too above. It's all in good fun. What I posted earlier is the reason for the association with criminals. |

The Graffiti point made upstream there is a good one. Tattoos are Art, no doubt. Or at the very least that is how *I* view them. And of course Art is subjective. Therein lies the rub.
I've seen so many tattoos that I can't wrap my head around; thinking "what made you get that?" Just yesterday I was at the gym and there was a woman there, had two tattoos that were visible. One on her shoulder, it was an line drawing of a flower, a rose I think. It was probably going to get colored later. But on her shoulder blade she had the full image of a woman standing up. It was probably 8 inches long. The woman image was full on raven hair, black corset, stockings/garters, heels, long black gloves. You can tell by my avatar that this is a look that has some appeal to me. I could see a guy getting something like that, and I've seen it (still can't wrap my head around why...but that's my problem). But a woman? It's not the first time I've seen women with that type of ink. I just don't get it. I have Art in my house. I appreciate art. But I simply can't think of a single thing I would want to look at for the rest of my life. And before someone mentions marriage, commitment, etc. A person is not a picture. |

"their body, their rules" should probably apply here. It's a personal preference thing. I would never get a tat myself (hence the use of the word "tat") but my wife likes / has them and they are cool. Some people dye their hair, some get tats, some do none of the above. People making blanket assumptions about the psychology of any given individual, or group of individuals, having tats is saying more about their own insecurities than they are anything else. Plenty of dudes that stormed the beach at Normandy or fucked up some hajis in Iraq have tats, you wanna talk shit about any psychological "issues" they may or may not have? All signs point to 'no'.

I can explain
They're tacky and or corny They look like ass They are currently a "youth culture fashion" When I went to college, I went to a giant state college full of low expectation party slobs. There was not one single kid with a tattoo. Not one kid out of 8,000. Nowadays, it's everywhere. A youth culture fad. Every tat you see is some kind of cutesy pun, or jokey, or cutesy, or faux tough, or faux spiritual. You see a pretty girl, what's that on her back? fucking angel wings or whore brand You see some guy, he has his kid's names tatted on his chest it's so lame that it's cringeworthy most tattoos remind me of a doodle on a phone pad and the artwork is often horrible look at this fucking nerd with his nifty "novelty tat"

Most I see are just bad.
A lot of the ones that look OK still seem to be in a strange location. It's like the difference between pinstriping a car, versus putting a sticker on the middle of the passenger door. Occasionally, I'll see one that looks well done and actually takes the human body into consideration. I really hate the "dozen unrelated themes placed randomly" thing. Very aesthetically unpleasing. |
