Nuts…

The whole “Tramp Stamp” thing is waaaaaaay overblown, IMHO. I like them. I like them a LOT. In fact, I like them so much that I have one (check out my album) – and I’m a guy! I’m even straight. 🙂

I think the lower back is one of the very best places to get tattooed – on either gender. Go for it!

As everyone else said, the artist(s)!

I only have the one tattoo – so that means I’ve only been to one shop thus far – but I’m booked for my second at a totally different shop. The first shop was great, but the second just GLEAMS. Unlike a different poster, I’d prefer linoleum flooring – much easier to keep clean. Ceramic tile looks great, but…[Read more]

And it’s on his upper arm! Pretty sure that’s the least painful spot to get tattooed.

I’d like to see what he’d do getting a Tramp Stamp – or inside the upper arm or inside a thigh! Gag him first though…

My artist told me one time she had a screamer like this – the (woman) client screamed for the entire 2-1/2 hour tattoo! Fortunately, it was a slow evening, they just closed the shop so no-one else would be subjected to it.

Very cool! I’ve got to try that sometime!

Good grief. PLEASE, educate yourself on the meaning of ethics. Simply because you disagree with something does not make it “unethical.” It’s unfathomable how anyone with any sense whatsoever could consider a makeover an issue relevant to one’s character.

Forgive my skepticism, but it seems to me that most of these so-called “makeover” shows are all about destroying the “extreme” in the subjects in question, and trying to make them more or less conventional. *IF* this is what this is about – its both unethical and cruel. On the other hand, if its about working with what the desired gals already…[Read more]

KnightHawk, with all due respect.

You mistake me for a Liberal.

I am not.

Nor am I a Conservative.

I detest both Liberals and Conservatives – for different reasons.

I don’t like bible thumpers, and I don’t like Socialists. Next?

That doesn’t leave a lot of room in today’s political climate, does it?

I believe in ABOVE ALL ELSE, freedom of…[Read more]

No argument mrchen, no argument. This underscores one of the many problems of the world today!

At the risk of creating a semantic argument (I hate semantic arguments!), I’ll go out on a limb here and say that I don’t believe in “morals”, only “ethics”. Think about the definitions of each. They often overlap, but not always.

We get ourselves into trouble when we attempt to…[Read more]
