Well, I'm 41 and I think women's tattoos are awesome. It doesn't matter to me if she only has one or two small, cute ones or if she has full body tattoos covering her torso and limbs. It all just comes down to the design, placement and the overall message/content of the tattoo (s). As long as they're not racist, hateful, violent, morbid or degrading, and they hold a personal meaning for her, it's all good to me. 👍 For me, it's ultimately more about the person inside, and tattoos don't change that at all.
With that said, I'm not into face/scalp tattoos, or tattoos on the breasts or on, ummmmm... other lady parts, but otherwise I have no issue with it at all. It all just comes down to the individual and the overall implementation of the design.
Done right, I think it can be attractive, but I wouldn't say "more" attractive. Just attractive in a different way. 🙂 However, I will admit, while tattoos are CERTAINLY not a "prerequisite" for attractiveness to me by any means, sometimes a woman with full sleeves can really catch my eye. ☺️
But no, I don't find women with tattoos "intimidating" at all. 🙂 I think that's just an old fear/stereotype that is slowly fading away the more people see and interact with both women and men who have tattoos. In most cases, they're just like anyone else. Just normal people living their lives who choose to express themselves with art on their body. And there's nothing wrong with that. I know it's not for everyone, but as long as people are chill and tolerant toward others, to each their own.
I’ve pretty much always dated girls with tattoos, I like them.
what I always find funny is some guys attitudes to tattoos, that they make a girl cheap.
example,
a guy dates a girl for 6 months, gets really close and they get on great. Eventually at some point after that 6 month point (it could be two years), they get naked to have sex for first time, he then notices a tattoo a small butterfly and it’s over, finished, she’s less of a person. That’s incredibly shallow and personally pathetic.
it also means they will never let them have a tattoo, which people suddenly decide in later life. Controlling much…
Excellent opinion!
@cerberusdoll thank you for MHG most appreciated.
Not all over 30’s are against.
It’s likely specific ones over 30’s
Most guys won’t shut a girl off because she has a few small tattoos. Now if she is sleeved up then depending on other factors it can be a big turn off.
The bottom line is this: Men aren’t passing laws and restrictions on women going to tattoo parlors. I don’t care what choices women make. But there are going to be some guys (including me) who don’t like it. That doesn’t mean I won’t date her if she is awesome in other ways. But it’s not a point in a positive direction when it comes to my preferences.
Well, not everyone is interested in a woman who have tattoos on her ass
Most men do not find tattoos attractive, and ladies you are judged by your tattoos. What you have tattooed and where it is placed, does matter.
As you get older, you will find that a lot of the men that do not have a problem with your tattoos today. Will have problems with them as they get older, and start to think about and are looking to settling down.
I have worked with a guy for the last 13 years, at 19 he thought that chicks with tatts where hot. 13 years later at 32, he does not date girls with tatts and considers girls with tatts as trashy.
No. Makes a woman look like trash. The sad truth is that a woman who taints her body like that will lower her sexual market value in the eyes of higher quality men. The more tattoos she has, the more trashier men she attracts. Good luck getting the commitment of a highly successful and educated man.
response to your update: It has more to do with values and education than it is being a generational thing. I know plenty of people in their 20s who think the same way as I do. Those who are all for tattoos are often the ones who are desperate to score anything. They would be glad to have some pussy, regardless of the girl having a bunch of piercings or tattoos. It's called settling.
Correction to the first sentence:
Yes, they are trash
It only applies to some people. I had a few girlfriends who had tattoos all over their body and it didn't really bother me. One of my girlfriends wanted me to get a tattoo of her name but I refused. It's kind of pointless to get a tattoo of somebody's name and eventually they just break up with you causing you to get it removed seems kind of pointless especially when their relationship doesn't last for more than a few months and I don't know why. Some of my friends called me a freak Show because I was dating a girl who had tattoos from head to toe.
I’ve never seen a tattoo I thought that made someone more attractive. That being said, I have seen tattoos that don’t decrease the attractiveness of a woman to me. The latter typically refers to smaller tattoos that aren’t very prominent. It also depends where. For instance, I think a larger back tattoo is more unattractive than a sleeve, and I’d rate a larger chest tattoo as more unattractive than a larger back tattoo.
In other words, a tattoo from my view can hurt someone’s attractiveness depending on the tattoo itself/prominence of it, but it won’t help make someone more attractive.
For the second question— do they intimidate me? No. It’s not intimidation to me. It’s more so just a preference. It’s like a girl having long hair vs short hair. I find long hair more attractive than short hair. It’s not intimidation but it’s simply an aesthetic with what I like or don’t like.
It's nothing to do with intimidation.
I just don't find them attractive.
Whether you can say they're indicative of masculinity and 'knowingness', or whether it's the style of tattoo that most women go with, I'm just not a fan.
I like the sense of feminine purity. Tattoos can lessen that sense.
Having said that, obviously it wouldn't dissuade me from dating a girl. And also, in some cases they can be nice and even preferable. It depends a lot on where the girl is coming from, her philosophy. Spiritual or yoga girls with tattoos can be quite nice.
I'm in my early 20s and yes, tattoos can be unattractive, but it depends on the size, topic and quantity – think of the grandma rule; if it is presentable for gran it gets the pass.
I was invited on a date by a lady, and she had a tattoo of the "female area"... I'm not sure about you, but I don't think that is very SFW... (I wouldn't dream of getting a tattoo of the male equivalent)
Tattoos are very mainstream nowadays and are often I'll thought through. Unfortunately, I have seen more that blemish than those that beautify.
They aren't as much as a deal-breaker as body/facial piercings though... those are a big NOPE.
You look like a piece of silly putty pressed against a comic strip.
I didn't care for tattoos on guys, never got them on myself. Why would I like them on a woman?
Psychologist do consider tattoos a form of self mutilation and a sign of mental issues.
This isn't 1993, Tattoos are really big among the gay community nowadays.
I don't care to be with someone that I can clearly see has issues. Maybe I shouldn't be saying these things since it's nice that you wear red flags so proudly.
It's bad, don't do it. If you really want a tattoo or a few, just do very small ones in places where it can't be always seen and if you don't want it anymore, it won't be hard to remove.
And it's not a generation thing either.
It's generally like this because men by that time know that women with tattoos are a big red flag and not ideal for relationships.
Younger men don't really care, if you have tattoos, because it doesn't really matter yet, your skin looks young, they don't care about it that much, especially if you two just hookup.
And the only guys who'll like your tattoos, who are also into tattoos.. So you limit your chances of finding your partner, especially later on.
Much less attractive!
To me, a woman's natural body is the work of art of a master, and tattoos are bathroom graffiti. The only question is how much worse the tattoo makes her look - it's a given that it will be worse.
I really don't "get" tattoos on women. For me, tattoos are something that sailors used to wear. I find them a bit off-putting. I really don't understand people who get themselves covered with tattoos so you hardly see an inch of them that's not covered with ink! I find that unfeminine and off-putting.
I truly love women, and I think they are awesome as they are. I'm definitely NOT looking to date a piece of abstract art! So, no, I probably would not date a woman who had tattoos.
Let me be blunt with you girls and ladies reading this. Guys and men talk a lot of shit behind closed doors about girls and how those douche bags talk about how women or girls should "perfect". This is why many girls today are like fuck marriage, fuck guys, fuck relationships. Moronic guys have ruined the perception of a proper guy in this world. The reason why I raised this is because tattoos are a short term investment, just like we dress a certain way in high school but they go away because it doesn't fit our persona. I personally would not like anyone (man or woman) who are in their 70s or 80s with wrinkly, saggy skin and covered with faded tattoos. If a girl has a mothers name on her shoulder or quote with a few words it's not a big deal to me. But that's how I look at it.
Me personally I don't think a woman having tattoos period would make them less attractive. Honestly, it would depend on how does that tattoo look on her and what is the tattoo itself actually of. In an ideal situation, let's say that the tattoo was something like a quote, or a symbol, or even an animal, and it was in a good spot that looked good on her then I think it would be attractive. But again this is only if it's actually a good tattoo and it again looks good on her.
It's an opinion thing no absolute answer.
Personally I love tattoos although I don't have any yet.
And generally speaking someone who is very much agaisnt tattoos will be agaisnt other things down the line so it depends on what type of guy you're into
To me, they are, yeah. I mean, they're not a dealbreaker or anything, but usually only a certain type of person has tattoos: Boring people who think they're special, and criminals. I'm not interested in either one. I've dated two women with tattoos (one of them had floral and butterfly tattoos all across her stomach, chest, and back), but it was something I could easily overlook.
It depends on the quality of the ink, and whether or not it makes any sort of sense. If the girl has magnificent portraits of her mother on (say) her left arm and her father on the right... I get it. The same with a brother who died tragically young in a car accident.
Otherwise, if it's just random scribbling, I can do without it.
Tattoos are a form of self mutilation that is as big as red flags get.
Tattoos are also visually repulsive.
The only thing that equals tattoos as a red flag and for being visually repulsive are nose piercings.
For Christians, Jews and Muslims, tattoos are prohibited.
Leviticus 19:28 "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you. I am the Lord."
I think a woman getting tattoos is like putting bumper stickers on a Ferrari. Especially if they are highly visible.
Now with that said I am not going to tell you that you can’t ink up. We live in a free society so do as you please. But as for me personally it’s a turn off. Not necessarily a dealbreaker but still a point or two in the wrong direction.
Tattooing, is another fad, and probably the reason, that men over 30 are against them is that they are mature enough to realize that a tattoo, is like Herpes, "it's forever", and if sometime in the future, if a woman decides she doesn't like it any more, it is "HELL" to have it taken off, and leaves scaring. If you do it, it's yours for a LONG, LONG time, generational, or not, you live with it.
Women with tattoos look like trash bar whores in my opinion. Every tattoo makes her less attractive, it NEVER improves her looks.
The guys that do like it are the party type of people that do hook ups so if she likes being used for sex and not having a good partner then go ahead.
This is terrible to say and please take no judgment but I always got scared that to see a girl with these huge tattoos would make me worry if she was a drug user caused what I have seen many times on TV makes me wonder but small tattoos are good now a complete body on men or women makes my brain start wondering if their users
Not intimidating. But too many tats can be a sign of instability.
There's a difference between finding a woman attractive and wanting to pair bond with them.
A lot of tatted women are hot and most men will not turn that down, but a lot of those same men wouldn't want an LTR with that kind of person.
Depends on other factors as well. But to many it is a red flag for anything more than casual hook ups.
It depends on the person and the tattoos. I don’t think my 96yo grandmother could pull off the full body tats like the girl in the picture can. I even doubt that she will rock them at that age. But they’ll still be there all wrinkled, stretched and faded.
Yes, I think they are. Because the alternative is more appealing.
It's not intimidating, but a lack of tattoos on a girl is endearing, which is the an opposite to intimidating.
It dispels some or a lot of the harmless aspect of girls which makes them attractive.
I hope that was a sufficient explanation to how I see it.
I think tattoos are just like any accessory they have to flow with your body they have to flow with you if the artist can do that it's a good tattoo
I don't care for them; they detract from the natural look of a woman.
Do you feel the same way about anyone with tattoos? Or only women?
Absolutely not especially the picture you upload it makes the girl look like a prostitute or some girl who has been around a lot of men and trust me there’s nothing sexy about that.
The way God made us it’s much sexier remember no one puts a sticker on the Ferrari.
they're not "unattractive", but to me, i just think too many mistakes are made
the girl i like right now, is currently going through a divorce. she once got a tattoo related to him, and the tattoo is so ingrained in to her skin, that normal removal with needles etc.. isn't going to do it, she's going to have to have it LASERED off, which costs thousands
she's 33, im 32
I dont like them its just too much going on and its always there. Its kind of... how do i say it. distracting. When i look at a person covered in tattoos im just always reminded of whatever image im looking at. I just want my mind to be present with them and not mario or whatever imagine is there. Its kind of like constantly trying to shew away flies in my mind. I dont like it. It gets old. In my opinion Keep art on paper. It won't be on your walls forever so why your body? Just my two cents
I like girls with tats, as long as they're not covered head to toe in them. I'm big on aesthetic and tattoos should be in the right places and nicely designed. My girlfriend has 5 tats. I have 1 myself and plan on getting a few more.
I hate tattoos on women. They make women look less feminine because it makes their tender skin look callous. Tats so nothing to augment beauty. They look like pointless graffiti.
Body paint could be fun as long as it wasn't permanent.
