I'm making it a point to get on this forum more often and flame the flamers!
You've got a lot of nerve posting something like that, then accusing others of being hateful and judgemental. The pot calling the kettle black, for sure.

I don't know what percentage of the population has jumped on the tattoo fad bandwagon, but it's a bunch. Everybody from kids to grandmas are doing it, and you have convinced yourself that doing exactly what everyone else is doing is "self expression".

Rave on, and nobody cares what you do with your silly little gloves OR how you paint yourself

I got a few tattoos and have even had others comment about them. I could careless what others think about my tattoos.

That being said, I do have a C5 emblem on my right calf. Nothing fancy, I love the C5 CORVETTE the most of all of them, especially the ZO6/FRC but I do NOT plan on getting the ZO6 badge tatted on my body. Just not doing any more tats.

There is one tat I got when I was drunk, super drunk and a girl was envolved in the process. Let me put it to you like this...make damn sure you know exactly what you want, where you are going to put it and that it is YOUR decision, because every time I see this particular tat I vomit a little in my mouth.

There are a lot of people here with their opinions on what YOU should do and sometimes you really need to just pay attention to no one and do what YOU think is right for you. I will admit, that on different subjects, the opinions of a lof of folks on here have been very helpful and I appreciate it, but in the end, it all boils down to what I want to do with my ride, my body (speaking on the subject of the tattoo) and my life.

That may not be a bad idea.

Well Leave the light on for us. Some of us old ones take a little longer than others....

Everyone has the right to state their own views because it was ask on all of our (everyone's) CF fourm.
If the answer you get is not what you expected or wanted its ok, and if you weren't expecting to get views in both directions why would you post it in the first place ... Its a personal issue this young man still has the right to make his or her own call cause the young girls love them to...
I'm sure the OP had his mind made up before they ask and yes us old slow ones don't think as much of them as the younger ones but we had our own day with hair to our butts, bell bottom jeans with peace signs on them and our list goes on and on.. Never have figured out which ear a ear ring is in means someone is gay or not. Didn't really ever care, I won't going to sleep with them anyway....
Playing on several different forums with the toys I get so tickled at how much these forums have become a driving force in a lot of folks life. You'ed think the forum was the most important thing they had to deal with .... < which is really really sad.
For those that enjoy the tats its their choice and for us old ones that don't its either funny or we're glad its on them.. Ain't it cool we all get to have it like Micky D's.......... Our own way...........
