Fire Away!
I don't get enough abuse here, so...
I'm not a fan of tattoos on women. I think women physically are
decorative enough. Sometimes, though, I'll see a tattoo on a woman in an
advertisement or in a movie, and it doesn't bother me at all, because
those tattoos, whether for real or for show, typically are well-done by
artists, well-drawn, well-inked, and not covering a substantial portion
of female real estate.
But the tattoos I see on women in real life? Goodness. Enormous, badly
drawn, badly inked. Saw a woman at the supermarket today who was wearing
a scoop neck sweatshirt and who obviously had most of her frontage
tattooed so a lot of it would be on view. I swear, from what I could see
of it (and I was actually looking away, it was so bad), it looked like
the backside of the alien Sigourney Weaver encountered. In the summer
around here, I see tattoos on women that no self-respecting sailor would
get on a port call in the Philippines. "Tramp stamps" especially I find
offensive, especially on a woman who is 200 pounds overweight.
So, what is with these women and their big, ugly, poorly drawn,
amateurishly inked tattoos?
Fire away.
