Gonna keep your Tatoo?

Recommended Posts

First I need to rant:
Here in Oklahoma it is illegal to give someone a tatoo. Not long ago a bill went before our state congress to allow tatoo shops. It failed. One legeslator said "I have a tatoo and i'm ashamed of it.". If he is THAT ashamed of it, why hasn't he had it removed?????
End of rant.

My question is if tatoos becane "not cool" would you have yours removed?

I got my tatoo because I wanted it not because every one else was getting one. I wanted to get one when I was in the service but didn't know what design to get. Here is a pic of the perfect tatoo for me.

My ink is my story it has nothing to do with being trendy.

It will stay with me until I'm dead and then for a short time there after.:D



Ditto for me, too! :)

I don't have any tattoos. But, I think I'd probably get a tattoo as an "up yours" to the coolness factories out there.

Coolness should have nothing to do with your decision to do something, not do something, or remove something.

A couple of kids trying to be cool just killed a paralegal next door street racing. FUCK cool.

I only have one.
Trust me mine is not considered cool as a matter of fact most of my friends/family were worried that I would get killed or hurt because of it. Especially with all the hate towards Muslims in the past years.

It is the only thing that I know I would want on my body forever.

It well only be taken off of my arm when I am dead.

I don't have any. :)
As a matter of fact, I don't have any 'cool' points at all...no piercings (except one in each ear), no ink, no anything. :P

I am getting a second set of piercings in my ears at my firend's ash dive, though. Just because I wanted them, and it will mean more to me that day.

Tattoo removal is very painful and usually leaves a scar, right?

I've got two. I like them. They are in "discreet" locations and as others have said, I got them for me, not to be "trendy". I also didn't get them in a drunken stupor when I was too young to know any better or do something stupid like have a boyfriend's name tattooed on my neck! (Yes, I know someone who did that. Guess what? The relationship didn't last!)

So, no, they are there to stay. I can't think of ANY reason I would want them removed.

Wanted mine for years...finally got it and love it. Most never see it. It needs a touch up, but I would never consider taking it off. I'm still in the process of deciding what I want next.

I would never get mine removed or be ashamed of it.

I have, on occasion, worn dark nylons to cover it.... not out of shame, but because I sometimes get tired of sharing my life with everyone that sees it and thinks its just a cool decoration.

I think that ink should mean something. Not just cuz ""hell, nothing else to do with that patch of skin." But.... each person has their own stories and that's for them to decide.
