Off-Topic Do you have a tattoo?

I sometimes think I am the only person over the age of 10 who doesn't have a tattoo. I've seen some beautiful tattoos, but have never wanted one of my own. How about you?

I have 2! My eyebrows. It’s actually semi permanent tattooing called micro blading. My daughter has 3 and I’ve also seen some stunning tattoos. Beautiful artwork. A friend got a Phoenix on her right shoulder that goes halfway down her back. It’s really pretty.

I don't. DH doesn't. My entire family of origin doesn't (parents, brother).

That said, I like them. DH and I used to go on "dates" to Barnes & Noble, where we'd drink coffee, eat pie, and look at tattoo magazines.

I haven't ruled one out...but I'm also terrible at committing to big decisions.

I have 4.. A giraffe on my stomach.. And elephant on my hip.. And a small one on my ankle and back. I had both my upper arms pretty tattooed.. and then had it all zapped off years ago.. You'd never know tattoos were even there. Cost a car and was super painful.. But I am glad I removed them. I love the ones I have now.. As they are mostly hidden. My husband has none.. And in think that's hot.. As everyone has so many now. As a mum.. I hope my kids stay clean skin. They both say if they make it to the Olympics (both are competitive athletes).. That they'd get a tattoo.. I'm cool with that.

I voted. I have no tattoos. It just wasn't a thing when I was young (only seedy people and sailors had them then) and when I got older, I just thought "meh--too expensive. I'd rather spend my money and my time on something more fun."

No tattoos. I wouldn't even let the medical staff tattoo me for radiation.

I've no tattoos. At some point in my 20s I wanted one, but never had the nerve to get it done. I did get a belly piercing that I loved back then, I just took it out during pregnancy, I never put it back.

None for me, I am too chicken. I used to have a navel piercing and that hurt bad enough, I finally took it out a few years ago after wearing it almost 20 years.

I like tattoos though, some are really well done and colorful but I just don't think it's for me. I wouldn't even know what I would get if I even did change my mind.
