Wonder if a study could be done to find out how many people regret getting tattoos? Now if you want to decent job, you better not have any ink showing on hands or neck.
Ha, I just responded to you in the parenting forum. I have a small tattoo on my wrist, and no, I would not consider removing it. It means a lot to me, and I can cover it if necessary.... I also don't have the type of job that would ever require it, though I suppose I don't know what the future may hold as far as that is concerned.
As far as regret, though, one can regret a tattoo for lots of reasons. I put lots and lots of thought into mine; it was planned for over a year, and I drew it myself. If it had been spur-of-the-moment, though, then I could see maybe regretting it years later, whether it was visible to others or not.
I can't fathom why people watch NASCAR...or why anyone over the age of 12 would willingly listen to Justin Bieber.
Different strokes and all of that I guess...
Watching NASCAR or listening to Justin Bieber isnt going to cost you a job though, and you can switch off the radio or TV with far more ease than getting a tattoo removed.
I know I'm in the minority here and it is because of my age and family background but tattoos to me are tacky and 'cheap". They scream of drunken sailors on shore leave. My father was career Army Officer who hated tattoos and made it very clear to me any man who would get one was never to be brought home. He was born in 1915 , served in WWII and Korea and I'm sure he saw many tattoos in his day. and probably a few drunk soldiers and sailors.

Hah, my Dad was in the Navy 21 years, and liked the bottle a little too much, never did get a tattoo, but he is full of "drunken sailor" stories of his shipmates.

Completely missed the point.

Fair enough. We all have our preferences - don't like tats...don't get one.
Although you may be surprised by how many people with tattoos are quite the opposite of drunken sailors...people with advanced degrees and six-figure salaries who are quite professional and responsible.
