piercings and tattoos for them or against them?

If you are a girl and you are going to get a tat, you might want to think about how that tat will look in 60 years or on your grandma (same goes for guys but)



Cause showing off your Felix the cat on your inner thigh when you are mid 80's is not NEARLY as sexy as when you were in your 20's. Frankly, it is downright scary!


Also, depending on your future career path, you might want to look and see if the current bosses have similar "body art" If they don't then figure you may have to chose between the visible tats and piercings and your career goals

Is the tongue webbing where they split your tongue so you can speak with a forked tongue. I saw some kid on You Tube have that done. It looked really painful.

I like tramp tats and tats on shoulders and upper chest on women. I've never cared on men either way unless it's a cool tattoo. I had a manpower guy that worked for me that had F you on the inside of his lower lip, spelled out. I was so amused I had to take a picture of it. DW wants me to get a tat that says Property of Lori.

I have 4 small tats that don't show unless I want them to. I think too many looks kind of bad. And having face piercings are creepy as all get out. Just my opinion. It really comes down to personal choice and it is none of my business what people do to their bodies.
 
In general, I find tattoos and body piercings unattractive. I don't mind small nose (nostril) piercings or a very small labret piercing. I don't like most other facial piercings, and I find more than a couple of ear piercings unattractive. This is just in general, and just my preferences. Piercing below the neckline give me the heeby geebies. I have seen a few tattoos that I like. I have seen far more poorly executed and poorly thought out tattoos. And everyone under 35 seems to have them in the Austin area. There are even kids at the middle school with tattoos.

For me, I don't think there are many things that would have enough long term meaning for me to have them marked on my body. I know my kids names, after all, I did give them their names. Everyday, I reaffirm my commitment to my dh. The only thing I could think of would be the mountains of home, and I don't think any tattoo artist could do them justice. Or perhaps, the Tlinget version of the love birds, Eagle and Raven. But that would take a very special artist, with a good knowledge of northwestern native art.

What had great meaning for me in my twenties, doesn't necessarily have great meaning today. I'm put to mind of a phrase from a song "I"ve changed my hairstyle so many times, I don't know what I look like". My tastes and interests have changed so much, I'm rather glad I don't have a tattoo from my 20s.

Who's going to see it when you're 80? The mortician won't care either. Guys will still look good regardless. It's one of the great things about being a guy.

Clearly YOUR aunt is nearly not as adventurous as my ex husbands. And she offered to show her "Cat" ( Felix the cat) at nearly 90
 
I like them. I have a bluebird on my shoulder that I got 34 years ago when tats were not as popular. I'm not crazy about the big earlobe piercings or tongues piercings, as far as aesthetics go. I like pretty things and artistic things as opposed to scary. What's a tongue webbing?
