it seems like everyone has a tattoo these days. What used to be the property of sailors, outlaws and biker gangs is now a popular body decoration for many people. And it is not just anchors, skulls and battleships anymore - from school emblems to Celtic designs to personalized symbols, people have found many ways to express themselves with their tattoos. If you have tattoos, what do you have and what do they mean ? If you do not have any, but want one, why do you want it ? If you do not have any and think you never will get one, why would you not want one ?

I like tattoos and I have one so far,it's somebody's name. I think tattoos have come a long way from being associated with drunken sailors and convicts:) They are just one more way for people to adorn themselves,same as piercings. I would like to get buddhist sign Om for good luck and maybe some more tats once i decide on which one:)

i do have tattoos on me. i have two on each arm. they are of: my name wrote in Thai(i wrote my name in Thai b/c i wanted to show ppl that i was half Thai.) a dragon:(I wanted the little blue dragon when i first saw it. i fell in love with the drawing of it that they had on the book that they were displaying there at the tattoo polar) guitar with wings(i wanted the guitar with wings b/c for one, i do play the electric guitar, and two for the wings it makes me think of the band Aerosmith group which i growed up listening to. I love their music) and last but not least the evil moon(the evil moon is just not an evil moon, it is a half moon that is dripping with blood on the sides of it, and than there's a star under neath it and it's dripping with blood. They say in the bible that when the world comes to the end, that the Moon will be dripping with blood in the last sign of the world coming to the end.) I love all of my tattoos that i have. and i've never regreted in getting them put on my body. theyall are very special to me. i do want more later though n the years though. i haven't decided what i want though.
