Tattoos

[Saffie]

Ok guys need some advice please.
My girlfriend has 2 very small tattoos that does not bother me as they are not in the face type tattoos. Personally I do not like tattoos, I have none, I do not find woman appealing with tattoos/piercings(nose/lip tongue).
Problem? She now wants to get a tattoo of a dragon on her shoulder/upper arm and I told her that would put me off. She reckons I am being controlling..bla bla. I told her if thats what she wants to get it, but told her simple that it would put me off.
I know it sounds stupid, but I can not help it if I do not find it appealing as it is the way my brain is wired, tbh there is a lovely lass at work that I fancied(when I was single) until I saw a huge tattoo on her lower back and its like all the lights went off...does it make sense?
So do I wait for the lights to be put out by a dragon..or do I try to explain it to her again? Or is she being unfair putting me in this situation? She does not like beards wouldnt it be the same if I decided to go full beard...I dunno hard to explain?

I don't like them either. tends towards making a woman a common slapper. If she goes ahead after discussion and you expressing your opposition, then I think it gives you a carte blanche to do anything you want like buy a new bike or shag anything without a tattoo.

has the same effect on me too and while not wanting to tell someone what they can and can't do to theirselves, within reason, I find them disgusting and a real put off hidden or not. It's a form of disfigurement and discrete or not it's not my bag. The current partner did mention it a few times but thankfully she has seen sense.

It's part of the reason I have to shag Wolfie and FUK with the lights off.

+2 ....Skin marking are masculine and not at all feminine.....:wank:
But then again I find earings worn by men laughable.........:-0)

+2 ....

are you saying you shag Wolfie and FUK with the lights off?

If it's a piece of what they call "flash" art, it'll be shit. If she were having something unique and personal on her arm, it's an expression of herself and all her own skin.

My wife has a little artwork, some may have seen. It doesn't bother me. I'd have some done myself but don't know what I'd want or where.

 

[jontheone]

you all sound really old!!!!!!!!!!!

her choice really.
on a serious note, knowing how women are, if she knows you dont like tattoos on women this may be a test of whether you REALLY love her. she may not even want a tattoo.

you know what you should be saying to her.

double bluff her, and if she gets it done and you dont like it, leave!

 

[Birdy_Blue]

It's what she wants.

Women by and large get what they want.

Grow a beard and change your name to long john sliver.

Then start calling her Jim lad.

 

[Wolfie]

fuck that.

we need pics of her first as she may not be worth keeping anyways.

I have 8 tats. outside of left calf, top outside left arm on the shoulder, two on each arm outside, and two inside on each arm. they are a rampart lion, celtic cross with an all seeing eye in the middle, skeleton piper, two dragons, youngest boys name with squirls and another cross made up the oldest two kids names again with squirls. and a skull with weed leaves out of the top smoking a joint.

the last one is the only one with colour rest are black and shade.

Also have 2 earrings in each ear and left nipple done.

And lumpy the light was off because you have a really fuckin ugly back with all the stretch marks etc. not a pretty sight.

ask her to show you the tat she want then place it on a photo then if you see are shallow enough not to suddenly like her then so be it.

The inner beauty of a person doesnt change because the outer has.

saffa the new shallow hal

Years ago my mrs kept on about wanting a gothic band on one arm and a japanese symbol for 'mum' on 'tother.....I was against it 100% but she went ahead and had it done, soooo one day I came home to face these tattoo's which I think look hideous, (not the last thing in femininity is it)? we were going through a rougher patch then than we are now if that makes sense and to say I felt aggrieved would be a massive understatement. Years on and quite frankly they look ridiculous. Funnily enough we didn't discuss them back then and haven't ever since! On a different note my niece has a huge dragon going from her shoulder/neck down to the base of her spine area which i'd say covers the large majority of her back easily......it's a sort of work in progress, but I can't help thinking how awful it will look in 20 years time when she's upper middle aged. Blokes can get away with it and it bothers me not if they want tattoo's but on women (especially when advancing in years) have them done they look shite!! Maybe me getting old(er) but they don't make any women look remotely classy :dunno: Now someone 'll chime in and say it's definite horn material :-0),

It is good to know I am not the only one with a problem with tattoos.

Wolfie I am not being shallow.. I tried explaining to her that if I buy a bike say black...and someone resprays it yellow without my consent. Now I would not have bought a yellow bike to start of with as I find it repulsive. I do love this woman with all my heart she is a good laugh, gets along with anyone and everyone, loves bikes, camping, fast cars and speed in general. So a perfect woman, she is very good looking.

The thing is I can not control how my brain is wired, as said I get turned off by tattoos and as mentioned the 2 she has is very small and not intrusive. The part that bothers me is having this black/blue dragon in my face the whole time. I am worried that my fellow would not want to play along anymore as my brain will tell it its nasty...make sense??

The last thing I wanna be is controlling and in a way telling her that its me or the tattoo is just fecked up even by my standards.

Starting to think I should just end it on the basis of us drifting apart :dunno:
Just hate it as I really for the first time in my life felt like I met my "soulmate" and feel frustrated by the fact that a tattoo could wreck that for us.

Again not being shallow I just dont find it sexy or a turn on at all. I could love her with a tattoo, but could not be intimate...not out of choice, but due to the wiring in my brain. Same as I could never "sleep" with a woman with huge cans..had a girlfriend with DD's and lets just say junior did not come out to play and ended because of that..again not my fault my brain is telling me eww..when society is saying hell the bigger the better, look at the jugs on that etc...

Went to a meeting recently and there was a pretty girl who has spoilt herself with nose and eyebrow studs and those big inner loop earrings, thing is she wasn't wearing an earring at the time so her big flappy hole was quite off putting.

Each to their own I guess.

 

[trigantle]

w08th have to be honest, some woman can carry it of, some can't. Personaly, I don't care less if they have body art. Went out with a wench, she had better tatts thay I did......cow. My ex didn't like them, but as with any parnership, she tolerated me getting more done, as I had to tolerate her 3 kids, quid pro quo.

Dumping her for a tatt, bit drastic. Then it beggers the point, that is she "the one"? Think you both need to sit & discuse some where neutral, maybe a neutral mediator, before you reach the point of no return.

As said it isnt that its the fact that I wouldnt be able to get aroused to the point of wanting to hump her staring at a dragon...

I have been there before with the DD mishap I know the way things goes...and I would rather walk away than be a dictating knobhead or a insensitive prat than hurt her feelings or putting myself into a situation that is very embarrassing, and then having to explain its not you its me bla bla. To be honest lately I have just slumped into a big I can not give a f slump.

Saffie.
Having studied all of your comments, I feel that your inner feelings are being displaced and you really don't want you partner to have body art performed as, in reality, you like the idea of it but are fearful of having it carried out on yourself due to the pain concerns.

The very essence of the artwork by her may be a form of love / empathy towards your misconceived ideas and pre 'wired' thought processes.

She may not Want the art permanently fixed into her smooth alabaster skin, but is forced into the policy by your utterly negative attitude towards the final product.

I feel it may be her way of confronting your sexuality.
A little 'He won't face pain, but I can' attitude.

In other words, you are secretly gay.

Of course, by now you are wondering what the hell all this is leading to.

Well,

It's leading to me saying that I have a 'Yellow' bike, and you say you find it "repulsive".

I am deeply marred by your comment, and hope she has 'LOVE' and 'HATE' tattooed on her knuckles as well as the shoulder piece.

But I really think you are using it as an excuse to knock her into touch, If you don't like tatts, so be it.

Aunty Murt.

 

[Saffie]

The reason why I do not have tattoos has nothing to do with pain. I have shattered my hand before on a dare. I hate tattoos because of all the idiots out there that whacks on a tat shaves their heads grows a goatie and then think they are "hard".

Then we can look at our primal instincts and having another person permanently "mark" your girlfriend that for the rest of your time together you going to be remembered where some dodgy "artist" had his hands.

Then just to add to it I love kissing my girlfriends skin, I like her little freckles not a bloody dragon...

And if you have a yellow bike, good on you I can appreciate some people like yellow bikes, I will not take a picture of your bike, I will not dream about your bike.

And if I ever turn gay I will be on the first road going full speed on my bike playing chicken with a bridge.

 

[trigantle]

Murts bike is VERY yellow, yes we did take a photo, not to dream about it, but to point & laugh about it. :-0)

Sounds like this is more to do with you, not your wench, & the tatt is just the catalyst.

Not all of us with tatts, that have short hair, & goatee think our selves "hard". Quite the opposite. I accept your point, but please don't tarr us all with the same brush. :dunno:
