All good an valid points, but called me old fashioned, I just don't think tattoos are something for most of the population. I find this tramp stamp fad and desire to get ink a fad on par with the multiple ear piecing fad of the 80's, when I would see girls with up to ten piecing on each ear. I got my ears pieced when I was 10 and it hurt like all bloody fuck. I had it done at a good earring place with one of those piecing guns and the pain was incredible. So much I almost didn't get my other ear pierced. My mother had to convince me that I'd look like a pirate if I didn't get the other one done to match since I already got the first one done. That was enough pain from self-mutilation for me for the rest of my life.
Getting waxed a few times was the end of the "pain for beauty" pursuit for me.
