for the majority of cases ABSOLUTELY !

Good luck with your job interview unless you wear a uniform to work if the tats are visible.

Guess it depends on where you work

Husbands best friend is an oral surgeon with a full sleeve and it doesn't hurt his business and he wears short sleeves in the summer

Like everything, opinions varies

Yes opinions do vary and maybe only 79% consider him trashy? Point taken. Bet he doesn't wear short leaves at work.

Hopefully, we can at least all agree ear gauges make everyone look worse.

Truth hurts.


Back when I was hiring people, a nice rack and ass would get you in the door regardless of qualifications. The better the rack and ass, the more little things like tattoos would not get in the way. If they would also come across as really ****ty, then a neck tat or full arm sleeve would still get through the door.

The key to life is having the right prejudices.

All tattoos on women look trashy.

Carry on.

Trashy. Was at a funeral today and a young lady who was a tad pudgy showed up with tats on her pasty white legs and chest. Top it off with short, frizzed purplish hair, a dress which probably needed to be longer, the standard issue lip and nose rings and voila: almost everything she could to minimize her physical attractiveness was there.

Not really. I used to have this girlfriend with an amazing, little tattoo. It was just a tiny, pretty ordinary looking, seashell on her inner thigh. Never forget it. I could put my ear up to that little seashell and smell the ocean.

Thank you for this unsolicited and competent origins opinion. I'll be sure to take it under advisement in my hiring from here on out.

Depends on the tattoo and it's location. For instance, these say, "I do butt stuff on the first date".

I'll hire someone with a tattoo but I take comfort in knowing I will have an opportunity to witness my faith on a daily basis and hopefully save their soul.

I'm seeing more and more ugly/unattractive, fatty women wearing tats, lots of them.

You have nothing going for you, is that a last ditch hope to attract some other loser with tats?
In 70 years the Socialist have won without firing a single shot. This is their Cold War. A lukewarm congrats to the victors.

Our only hope is a Civil War, a very unlikely scenario OR secession of at least 10 states in the South and Midwest, again unlikely OR another Trump-like Presidential candidate that cuts through the political correctness, the social bullsh6t, to expose the corruption, the media(social) bias, the Dem lies and deceit. I fear it may be too late - I truly think it is.

A small rightfully earned Ironman or Olympic ring tattoo is cool. And no, I don't have either nor am I a threat to ever earn one.

Tatoo on the lower back? Might as well be a bullseye

Just how he likes them. If they have tattoos it means they're over 18

Time's up, mormon dork. Why would any "young lady" give a crap what you think would make her more physically attractive? You and your fellow Utes have some of the worst human rights violations on the continent.

A lot of what you're seeing is women who jumped on the tattoo fad when it came back in fashion around 2000. Back then, we thought "what the hell will that look like when she's 50?" Now we know.

I have never been opposed to tatts but I never got one. I have found that as I get older (Im 37) I like them more and more for their artistic value. When done right, tatts on women are incredibly sexy.

They're trashy.( Exception is our military ) .. if they want tattoos, let them have 'em.

P.S. FYI This doesn't apply to any kid I may have serving in the military.

The booger green ink is what turns me off. It's not a pretty color.

Tats are nothing more than attention grabbers. Spare me the spiritual or emotional connection of forever altering your body. You want attention.

If you think about it, everyone has them now so you stand out by NOT having any.

When they're done right, they can look good. Some people can pull them off, lots of others can't
