Are Wrist Tattoos Gay?

Q. I plan on getting 2 tattoos before I go back to college, I want the Libra sign in black on the underside of my right wrist and the characters for rabbit on the other wrist in red.

Being a guy is it gay, getting wrist tattoos?

A. GAY?

Are you kidding me? I know I'm a woman but I have both my inner wrists tattooed and know of LOTS of men with them, including guys with sleeves down to their wrists. I know one guy who just did flames on his wrists, all the way around. They looked like they were flaming up his arm, looked very awesome.

So no, not gay. Your choice of tattoo design might not be appropriate for the wrists but who am I to judge, lol.

Any women professionals have a wrist tattoo?

Q. I want a wrist tattoo.. but I'm worried about my job. I work in a corporate environment, so I was thinking I could just wear a suit jacket/blazer every day and if it was hot out, I could always take it off at lunch..

Does anyone else have this problem? Do you wear long sleeves everyday? Is it annoying that you can't wear short sleeves ever to work?? Thanks!!!

A. i have tattoos on both of my wrist. im in nursing school right now, and every time i do my clinicals, i have to wear a long sleeve shirt. its SUPER annoying. the nursing facilities get super hot, and it doesn't make it any better that im running around patient to patient non stop...i end up getting really over heated and sweaty. i work at ipower web hosting right now, and they dont mind my tattoos, so i don't have to wear long sleeves at work. thank god for that one becuase this places a/c sucks!

take it from me that it gets annoying FAST. i live in Arizona and it gets to 115+ degrees in the summer. blazers and long sleeves shirts arnt that comfortable anyways. in the summer time it feels better to wear a short sleeve or sleeveless shirt. even if you are in the a/c.

i hope that was the answer you were looking for. if you really want to get a tattoo, get it on your shoulder or your hips? the wrist are really indiscreet.

Is it really that trashy for a successful young woman to get a tattoo on her shoulder?

Q. Since I was a little girl, I've always wanted to get a tattoo of a phoenix on my back. My life plan has always been to become a novelist and write fantasy literature. Well, I just graduated college and am working on my second book. As a graduation/birthday gift, my step-dad decided to help me track down the best tattoo artist within driving distance and help me with the cost (he's chipped $200, which should be 1/3-1/2 of the final total).

I had to schedule out 6 months, and tomorrow is the big day. Despite my step-dad's support, my mom and sisters are being really mean to me about this decision. Calling it "trashy," and "the biggest mistake of your life," lecturing me left and right, telling me that I'm never gonna be able to find a "decent" guy or be able to come around "respectable" company wearing anything other than a turtle neck.

I'm perfectly set in my decision (I have the $600 cash in my wallet right now and a full tank of gas). But does anyone have good reasons to tell them to shove it, or are their arguments legitimate? I think they are full of crap personally, because I just graduated from private school, and more than half of my female classmates at banquet had tattoos that were visible in ball gowns. But perhaps I'm biased because I want this so bad and I hang with an artsy crowd...

A. Ok don't listen to your close minded mother and sisters

For me, I would pick a girl WITH tattoos over a girl without them any day

Just because your mom and sisters are living in the old days where they can't look past any of this doesn't mean you should.

Tattoos are amazing and make girls beautiful. It is not in the least bit trashy.

This is YOUR life NOT theirs
This is YOUR decision NOT theirs

If they can't respect your own decisions since you obviously are doing good especially graduating from college than they should just keep their mouth shut. You shouldn't have to explain or convince them of anything. They don't have a say in what you can or can't do with your body

For a woman how painful is it to get a tattoo on your lower shoulder?

Q.

A. The more flesh an area has, the less painful it tends to be. So on a scale of 1-10, a lower shoulder tattoo would probably be a 6-7

mystery tattoo ideas?

Q. I have wanted for a long time to get a tattoo that embodies my mysterious nature. I'm pretty set on getting some kind of phrase, written on my side torso, but I have no idea what I want it to say. Everything I come up with I think doesn't work for whatever reason. For example my grandma used to call me Mystery Woman, but as a tattoo I feel like that would kind of look retarded, same with getting one that flat out says "Mystery".. lol. I've thought of getting something like "the more you know the less you know" but still not totally happy with that or any of the other phrases I've come up with.. any ideas?

A. Maybe this poem would help you. The first two lines are beautiful.

Norris Rolle - Mystery Woman

"Mystery woman, without a face.
hard to find. without a trace.
Romantic magic - pure illusion.
Finding her will cure confusion.
Enigmatic. Hidden treasure,
Somewhere out there in the world
Her worth and value can't be measured
Better than diamonds and pearls.
Mystery woman gat me wonderin'
If she really does exist.
So many moons i have been ponderin'
Did i somehow hit and miss.
Did i find her and mistreat her?
Did she have some sort of mask?
Did my attitude defeat her?
Was i just too much a task?
Mystery woman show me plainly
Who you are and where you be,
Cause i am runnin' round insanely
To unveil this mystery."

Have an idea for "boys" tattoo that would look good on a woman?

Q. I have been wanting to get a tattoo with my kids names somehow incorporated into a picture.....They are boys, 7 and 10 years old. I like dragonflies, mushrooms, lizards, flowers. They like dragons, flames, motorcycles and snakes. I only want a small to medium tattoo and we cannot reach any agreement. It's going to be on my body, but I want it to have meaning, and want them to be involved in the decision. Anybody have any good ideas?

A. I have a tattoo artist friend who got his 10 year old to tattoo his own name across his hand, although you might not want your child handling a tattoo gun, so get them to write their names on a piece of paper, and decide where and how you are going to position them. Then sit down with your kids and come up with something together. Use a motif that you nor them will ever tire of, these include: plants, planets and stars, elements (not like uranium!), things of that nature.
In my opinion, no one should get portraits, tribal, or any disney character! But that's my opinion, take it or leave it.
