Re: Body Ink (poll)
Do you have tattoos? I have 3
Where? the classic trampstamp, which is a butterfly with ocean waves inside the wings, tribal around it (done 4 years later), Japanese charactor of Chaos
What was the reason behind your ink of choice? My daddy picked out the butterfly because I love them and I love the water any water. He liked the colors too. There are 5 or 6 different colors. The tribal was a stupid decision that didnt turn out how I wanted it. But just the butterfly was boring. Chaos was for the state my life was in at that point.
How old were you when you got it/them? 17 for the butterfly( about 3 years before the butterfly tramp stamp became the in thing to do) 18 for Chaos, and 21 for the tribal
Do you reget it/them? The tribal yes. I wish it was more feminine
Does DH/SO have any? He has none
How does he feel about yours? He is fine with the ones I have, but would prefer me not to get anymore.
Would you ever get more? I want to get one of our wedding date in Papiamento, which is the language spoken in Aruba, where we took our honeymoon and our anniversary trip every year since. DH is still thinking about it.

Do you reget it/them? nope
Does DH/SO have any? no he's a sissy
How does he feel about yours? its small, doesn't bother him
Would you ever get more? i'm not sure, i always wanted at least 1 more small one but i haven't found anything meaningful. I dont believe in inking yourself unless it means something to you...i've seen some pretty horrid tats.

Do you have tattoos? 3
Where? ankle, middle of my back-above my bra line, sternum
What was the reason behind your ink of choice? my ankle I wanted since I was 12, so I got it on my 18th bday. My back a friend drew for me, and the sternum was a spur of the moment

Would you ever get more? I would love to get a partial sleeve, and I have some other things I would love to get but they cost too much money so I have no plans to get anymore anytime soon. There are other things I would rather and need to spend money on.
Do you have tattoos? 3
Where? Upper left shoulder, tramp stamp and on my left foot
What was the reason behind your ink of choice? The one on my shoulder is tinkerbell. That's been my nickname since I was a baby. The tramp stamp is the Chinese character for Sister. I got it with a few of my sorority sisters in college. The one on my foot is a butterfly. I just thought it was cool to have one there and I like butterflys.
How old were you when you got it/them? Tinkerbell: 18, Butterfly, 19 and back 21
Do you reget it/them? I wish I would have gotten my tinkerbell tatoo a little lower. I feel silly wearing strapless dresses or tops that show it off when we go to weddings or nice restaurants.
Does DH/SO have any? nope
How does he feel about yours? He's never said. I don't think he cares. He has talked about getting one, so he doesn't disapprove.
Would you ever get more? I'm planning to get the Chinese character for wife and mother at some point to go with the sister tatoo.
Do you have tattoos? I have 3
Where? Butterfly on one ankle, Winnie the Pooh (I know !!
on the other ankle and another Butterfly on the inside of my wrist
What was the reason behind your ink of choice? The butterflies I got when I came out of long term and I mean long term relationships.. I felt free! ... Then Winnie the Pooh uffff I was young and dumb and didn't think.
How old were you when you got it/them? My Winnie the Pooh when I was 18. The Butterflies probably at 24 and 28? maybe??
Do you reget it/them? Just the Winnie the Pooh... Lame
Does DH/SO have any? He has 3 ! " Joe " that he did on his arm when he was like 12 ha ha " Loela " on one forearm " Grace" on the other. He wants sleeves, it took ' Loela ' and he is hooked.
