Girls with tattoos?

small discreet tattoo = hot
piercing = gross

Nah. big turn off, both of them. Tattoos look cheap, and piercings make you look a bit low in intelligence. It's like "This is fashionable at the moment, so I'd better get it done because everyone else has."

I'm definitely not a big fan of tattoos on girls. To me it just takes away from an otherwise attractive body. I think of a girl that has a tattoo that shows is that's she's trying to make a point of some kind. like I can do this if I want to. I'm not really big on piercings either, but I do like piercings on the ears and all the cute earrings she can wear. But piercings on the nose or lips, tongue, etc., are like having a big tattoo on her arm that shows all the time and I think a girl that has that stuff on her bod probably has an attitude problem of some kind or is trying to make a statement of some kind too. lol!

a kinda turn off for me but tattoos on the back side, like on the bottom of your back is ok. That is like a turn on for me

Subtle is OK. But It's mostly overdone and a turn off for me. Piercings are more so, but unlike a tattoo, can be undone. I see a girl who is otherwise pretty, but the body art jumps out and has me thinking what she would have looked like before. I can get past a tattoo if I'm really into the girl, but it won't call my attention to her if I didn't notice her already. Piercings usually seem like a phase to go through. I'm more likely to look another direction.much like when a girl lights up.

It's been said to death already, every guy's different. My take on it?

I actually like both, they need to be tastefully done though. If she has a tattoo I like it to be artistic, there doesn't necessarily have to be meaning behind it, but it has to look well done and should be unique. Even though they are all the rage now, I've been a fan of tribal tattoo for a long time, but no butterflies or dolphins for me thanks. I love ankle tattoos and a small tattoo on the back of the neck, lower back is also an attractive spot.

With respect to piercings, as long as the girl didn't go overboard I think they look good, not a huge fan of nose piercings or snake bites though. A single lip ring or stud is very sexy as is a pierced navel and I usually like a girl with multiple piercings in her ear, if they only have the one in the earlobe it's kinda just run of the mill. I also have no problem with pierced tongues or clits, actually I find them very sexy.

I don't mind seeing a tattoo that covers the lower back region or something lightly done that goes around the upper arm but that's as far as I would want to see on a woman. I'm fine with ear piercings only, all other piercings turn me off especially tongue piercings and clit piercings.

if you dig it enough to explain it to me passionately, I dig it.

Like Jarett said, it comes down to the guy. Especially with body art, which is very subjective even to people who do like it. I mean, just because I *can* be attracted to a woman with tattoos, if they are in poor taste or badly done, it would probably be the opposite; the same for piercings.

For example, I kind of find "tramp stamp" tattoos repetitive and unoriginal. They hardly ever convey any kind of creativity and while it doesn't make me less attracted to a girl (providing it isn't a _horrible_ tramp stamp) it certainly doesn't make her more appealing. An example of an exception would be this: link

That is an excellent tramp stamp, IMO.

Also, I think something like this: link
is absolutely gorgeous. It's great when you can get a tattoo that accentuates your body's curves and actually adds depth and sex appeal, by the art alone.

As for piercings, I'm fine with anything from none to moderate. My limit would be, like Jarett said, "a bunch of metal in your face". That has passed the point of moderation.

I'd say moderation sums up my opinion.

To be honest, it all depends on the guy. I'm not a big fan of tattoos. I think, why ruin perfectly beautiful skin. As far as piercings, I think ears and belly button are ok. That's it. I don't like any facial piercings at all. If a girl is beautiful, why stick a bunch of metal in your face? But that's just my opinion.
