Fortunately, I don't judge someone's intelligence by their lack of tattoos.....as some do towards those with tattoos.
I have tattoos, and GUESS WHAT....I'm smart, abstinent & drug free!
Who'd thunk it?
Yeah, but we're gonna be all saggy in the nursing home!
Then what's gonna become of us???
Only us though. People without tattoos they're not going to be all saggy in the nursing homes!
I don't have any objection to tattoos, in general. What I don't like to see is a largely endowed woman, with an extremely low cut top, showing off mega tattoos. I see nothing attractive about that.
I have one tattoo, and it took me two years to finally decide to get it done at the ripe age of 35. My husband was gone for over a year overseas. I had it designed before he left and saved it for if he ever made it home.
When he came home on a stretcher, we both got him well enough to go to the artist and have dual tattoos done.
Sure, it may fade or sag when I am an old lady in a nursing home, but it means a great deal to us. It was custom made and done tastefully.
I don't have to impress anyone else, I am certain of it.

What a beautiful story! I hope you're husband is doing better.
Come to think of it, everything will fade or sag on our bodies when we're in a nursing home, so in the big scheme of things, who really cares.
99% of the time they don't look good. Only on a few people (generally rocker chicks) does it actually look good or attractive. I've never seen a larger than average woman with a tattoo that I found attractive at all.
Then there's the tramp stamp. You know who gets around when it's located there. Hell, just get the word "SKANK" tattoo'ed on the back of your neck or forhead?

Mine is there and I don't "get around". It's very classy, actually. It accentuates MY features very nicely. And, no...I am not a rocker chick and I am not oversized...just a normal mom of three in her 30's. Who'da thunk I'd do it? I didn't...LOL

Thank you very much for your kind words. My husband had a critical injury but helps other servicemembers and vets in their recovery. Apparently everything happens for a reason and good can come out of bad. We think so, at least.
In the scheme of things, you are so right. I will sag with or without a tattoo!

lol isn't that funny how only people with tattoos are gonna be the saggy ones in or out of the nursing homes when they are old ..What the ones without tattoos are going to be all fit when they turn 80? They won't sag a bit or have those little brown spots, or ya won't see the blue veins popping out either? What does people think our skin is different than theirs, because of tattoos.. I duno my skin is still as soft as it was without the tats..It doesn't make your skin any different.
And I really hate to break the news to all the ones who think our skin will sag when we turn old.. well your skin will sag and get old too.. It is just a natural part of getting old.. tattoos or Not! And by then who will care what their tattoos look like..What everyone gonna sit around the nursing home and talk about how their tattoos are sagging.. I doubt it!
What most people don't realize or think about is....You get put in the nursing homes because you usually have alzheimer's or you had a stroke, or a heart attack and too sick to take care of yourselves.. sheesh.. So why is everyone so worried about what people with tattoos will look like by then??

Exactly!!!
Besides they fade anyway. My Dad's you can hardly see now. He's had them for 40 odd years and never had them re-colored. I've only had my two small ones for about 8 years and already I've had one re-colored once. By the time I'm 80, supposing I live that long anyway, I doubt you'll be able to see them hardly at all and seeing as they're on my feet and I'll probably spend my days in slippers anyway I doubt anyone will even notice they're there. Not that I'll care. I'm looking forward to being cantankerous and not caring in my old age anyway!
