    I've got an old viking-"icon" on my arm, and I don't think I'll go for another. It has been there for years now. It's pure black, and it still looks all new...

    I have a tattoo of Brandon Lee on my arm. It was worth it for the cool Brandon Lee-shaped scab I got :D

    I like tattoos on women, but I would never get one myself.

    It wouldn't do my skin justice :D , however women look very sexy with piercings and tattoos (unless the tattos make the woman look like a large collection of stickers).

    I'm not a fan of tattoos on women either. I'm glad my wife doesn't have any tattoos.

    My ex had a tattoo on her back, and it suited her great. But I get your point, I don't like woman with tattooed arms or forearms.

    I don't mind discrete tattoos, however. I've been thinking about getting one done in my back, but it's still an idea. Maybe something like the Reaper tattoo my friend has. It's simply breathtaking.

    Tattoos are gross on women and women should never have them. It makes them look common and unattractive.

    They're not bad on men so long as you have the right ones in the right places. Discreet ones are cool, loud obvious ones aren't nice.

    Makes them look common? I am not talking about Chavette tattoos here, but very detailed pieces of art. Getting a nice celtic knot is very different from kelly-ann lvs johnto!

    I more or less agree with Barmy Army on this one. Not sure why, but I do.

    From a womans point of view I'm not overly fond of tattoos either. Something subtle with a nice design can be nice but I don't like seeing a bunch of tacky interconnecting commercial art images covering large areas of skin. I prefer other ways of decorating the body. Clothing, jewellery, and hair can be changed infinately.

    The body is like a room. If your space is filled with crap and trinkets it just looks messy. If things are chosen well and placed nicely it feels confortable.

    Its all down to style. Tattoos can look great, however certain types of jewelry can look extremely tacky, such as giant gold hoops or large chunky rings.
