Oh Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia?
Lydia, the Tattooed Lady
She has eyes that folks adore so
And a torso even more so
Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopydia
Oh Lydia the Queen of Tattoo
On her back is the Battle of Waterloo
Beside it the wreck of the Hesperus, too
And proudly above waves the red, white, and blue
You can learn a lot from Lydia
When her robe is unfurled, she will show you the world
If you step up and tell her where
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paris
Or Washington crossing the Delaware
Oh Lydia oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia?
Oh Lydia the Tattooed Lady
When her muscles start relaxin'
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson
Lydia oh Lydia, that encyclopydia
Oh Lydia the queen of them all
For two bits she will do a mazurka in jazz
With a view of Niagara that nobody has
And on a clear day you can see Alcatraz
You can learn a lot from Lydia
Surprised there isn't already a tattoo image thread, so I'm going to create one.
I don't know why you're surprised there isn't already a tattoo image thread. I'm surprised there IS a tattoo thread.
Nice pics. I agree. Tattoos are mainstream now and they look amazing on FBBs
To each their own(and I'l leave it at that).
I don't really want to rain on anyone's kink, but since I've already been labeled a "grandpa" (not a burn, since the alternative is death) but what about the camouflage of definition they create on the skin, and it's effect on judging? Several of the women picture have the majority of a limb covered. This technique is literally done to advanced automotive prototypes during testing so competitors can't see character lines... Similar to muscle definition. As a judge, two otherwise equal competitors would come down to who's skin was less adorned, therefore visible to be judged. Why put that kind of effort in and voluntarily disadvantage yourself?
KevinTheGangsta - They don't tattoo cars. It's a sticker. It confuses cameras, that's the idea. A tattoo isn't a sticker and it isn't designed to confuse.
The patterns they put on cars are designed to disguise the shape beneath. To make it harder for people to tell what the surface details look like. Full arm sleeve tattoos and really any big tattoo on a muscle has a similar effect.
I know some people like 'em though. I just find it ironic how people get tattoos in part to be "unique" and now that every idiot has body graffiti it's actually more unique not to have one. It seems like a strange thing to do when you're putting so much work into your body aesthetic. A bit like carving a greek goddess out of white marble and then handing some kid a Sharpie market to draw skulls and demons and bullshit all over it. But to each their own.
I'd never presume to TELL someone else what they should do with their own body. I think at least half of them will end up getting the shit lasered off eventually anyway. Sooner or later they realize they aren't going to have 20-something year old flesh forever and tattoos just look worse and worse as you age. Especially on women. But, c'est la vie. If tattoos turn you on, I won't pretend to understand. I don't need to. Not everyone likes muscular women either. Different strokes for different folks.

Thank you for paying attention on idiom and analogy day in elementary school.

I'm kind of in the mid-range of people who love or hate tats... for me they don't really enhance a woman's body, but they also don't detract in most cases. However, I do appreciate the more artistic tattoos out there.
I'll use Layla Pollock as an example:
