    Turn On... if the tatoo/tatoos match the characteristics/personality...

    Turn Off... if the tatoo/tatoos doesn't match the characteristics/personality...

    I think tattoos are a turn-on, just as long as it's not covering an entire section of somebody's body, or if you just can't "feel" The tattoo.

    Tattoos are sexy. Not too many, but a few here and there are nice. It would give me something to admire and ask about when we're laying in bed together :slight_smile:

    I don't mind them on someone else but I would never get one.
     
  6. Argh really huge tattoos turn me off, I don't like picture tatts either. Writing tatts look better but with classy font & not stupid crap.

    I'm in the "it depends" camp. I really don't like sleeves, face tattoos, neck tattoos or chest tattoos. I find them distracting. That said, I plan on getting tattoos as soon as I lose weight, and wouldn't mind if my partner had them. Just not the distracting sort. And I don't much care for having tattoos just for the sake of having tattoos. I'd never get one unless it meant something personal to me, and I'd probably be a bit disappointed if I asked my partner what his or her tattoo meant and they said something like, "Nothing, it just looks cool."

    Usually a turn off. They only really look good on younger people, and even then, not a lot.

    I don't care what the person i think is cute looks like or has on them as long as there a nice person. Would i perfer it? Well i wouldn't mind i would allow it its there body and what they want its there choice and im okay with that. But i wouldn't like it myself i mean if i could say i would ask for them not to i don't think people need tattoos depending it can just be a turn off. But its one that i could deal with....like i said there body not mine its not my place to tell them if they should or not.

    To me tattoos are neutral, it's how the art is used wich makes it a turn on or turn off. Deffinetely won't mind it on someone else if it looks good and was done for a reason.
    Even considering one myself to cover up an old stuborn scar with something meaningful.

    Turn off - I mean, I can find some meaningful tattoos really pretty on someone, but when it comes to a potential mate, I prefer au naturale.

    I love tattoos. As long as they're beautiful, and aren't stupid, I don't care how big they are or how many there are of them.

    Turn off. Never understood the fascination with permanently drawing on yourself.

    I'm indifferent to them. Some tattoos can look really awesome and neat, and some just look awful to me. If I ever get one, it will probably be one that's small and somewhere mostly hidden by any clothing. On other guys it depends on the tattoo.

    Depends on how tacky vs. artistic it is.

    I sort of agree. For people who are over 30 or 40, they sometimes got them while doing military service back in the day, such as the parents of some of my childhood friends. If someone really wants one, then fine. They don't go with my look, persona, and age bracket, so that's why I said no.

    I like a guy with tattoos. Not big ones that are everywhere but small ones. Especially if they are pentacles or something of that sort.
