Tattooed women, Do you have any tattoos on your ankle/leg? If not then why? Is a sleeve better on arm or leg?

Q. This made me curious ever since I read someone else's similar questions. I have tattoos on each side of my ankle and just assumed that it never looked bad or bothered anyone, since I've gotten all compliments. I never understood though why people are saying that tattoos on the leg only look right on "certain" women who know how to pull off that look. What does that mean? I like the way a leg sleeve looks (a small one) + it can easily be concealed when needed. Also, why would anyone think it looks too masculine for a women to tattoo her leg.- Most guys I see have their arms & back, not their legs!
Thanks!

A. I have a tattoo on my ankle. It doesn't quite go all the way around and I do plan on finishing it, as well as getting one on my other ankle. For me, I would get my legs covered before my arms. It's easier to cover if you need to do so. I wear jeans most of the year anyway, so it would be less likely to fade.

To each their own. Put your tattoos where you want them, not where other people think they should be.

Original Question

if i get a tattoo on the side of my ribs will it get stretched out when i get pregnant?

Q. i want a tattoo on my side where my ribs are, like where my arm falls when it's straight down by my side. is that a safe enough area, or will it stretch a little when i get pregnant?

A. It might just a bit. Depends on weather or not you're prone to gain a bunch of weight when you get pregnant. Ask your mother if she got real big during her pregnancy. Are you planning on getting pregnant soon? If so, then just wait the 9 months then get the tattoo. If you're just thinking about it for the future, then don't worry too much about it. If you make a conscious effort not to gain too much weight during pregnancy (now I'm not saying starve yourself and unborn child-gain the appropriate amount, but don't over due it like some women do when they use pregnancy as an excuse to eat anything and everything and then the weight is hard to come off after wards.) Like I was saying, if you just make sure not to go overboard with the weight gaining during pregnancy and do your best to tighten up after the baby comes, then yes I think you should be fine, ribs are one of the last places to accumulate weight...I'd be more worried about the tummy area. Especially if you turn out to be one of those women who gain it all in their belly and stay tiny everywhere else (those lucky
b!tc*es!) haha. Best of luck...
