Apparently some musician named Lil Beep died yesterday from a drug overdose. His picture was plastered all over social media. He has all kinds of tattoos, including on his face, fake teeth, bad haircuts, loud clothing, loud hair color, etc. etc. etc. Before I even saw the cause of death, I knew it was going to be something along those lines or crime related. They say not to judge a book by its cover, but come on, we all do it sometimes. And let's be honest, sometimes it's true.
I have really become a fan of a good tattoo over the years. I find (some) tattoos on girls enhances their attractiveness. I thought about getting some of my own – if I can ever come up with an idea that I think I would like and could live with. But people who cover their bodies in it has some kind of mental illness IMO. It's no different than any other kind of obsession or trauma from their past. And face tattoos? No, no, no, no, no. That's like running around in advertising that you are mentally ill.

I grew up in a neighborhood were we were taught not to get tattoos because you could be identified more easily. The lesson seems to have stuck, and 40 years later I still have no tattoos.

I think you two are missing my point.

Megan Fox  Alyssa Milano  Jessica Alba  Shannyn Sossamon  Asia Argento  I don't even think most of those are good examples of what I'm talking about. I think the last one is though. Little tattoos on the wrist or shoulder never really struck me as sexy.

That pretty much sums up my thoughts  like some people have a boatload of tattoo's (or piercings) on their body  basically i am not the tattoo type of person as i don't have any and i doubt i ever will get any. with that said... if someone has some tattoo's it's not a big deal for me but to cover your entire body in them (or close to that level) is definitely a negative thing if you ask me. so with that said... i am not exactly sure where i would draw the line on when someone has "too many tattoo's" but as a general guideline i think most of your body should look like a body (i.e. regular skin) and not be covered in ink and i would definitely avoid any face tattoo's and largely avoid neck(especially heavily covered) tattoo's also as this helps keep you more presentable to the common person. basically... i think small tattoo's are best and only in certain areas is a good place to limit things when it comes to tattoo's. like say something small on your shoulder area or maybe a little one on your arm(s) or maybe something small on your leg(s) and the like keeps things within reason. plus, i always wondered if a fair amount of people who have quite a few tattoo's ever regret it especially if it's not something your pretty sure your going to like for the rest of your life. like say you get a tattoo when your 20 years old about some random thing you like... do you think you will still like that tattoo in 10-20-30 years time? plus, i imagine you lower your chances of getting certain types of jobs with plenty of tattoo's on your body. p.s. but with that said... it seems the general negative stigma of tattoo's is not as bad as it was in the old days from what i have heard. still, those who get tattoo's got to keep it within reason.

It's a personal choice.
Do you have dealings with people that are heavily tattooed.
