Question Poll: Do you have a tattoo?

Just curious to see what the composition of folks on the site have some ink or not!

Of course, if you don't have any (like me), you could add to why and, if you do, please feel free to share the motivation.

I don't have any b/c I can't stand the thought of something permanent being on my skin. I do admire some of the art I've seen on others, though!

Vote and let's see--have more members been inked than not?

Just curious

I have 5 ( you can see them here: http://www.butchfemmeplanet.com/foru...read.php?t=701)

They all have specific meaning and I designed them all myself:

The ram and metal dog are my two zodiacs. (these were my first and I did them because I wanted to at least try once to see if I liked it or not..)

Linus, on my neck, kinda self-explanatory.

The crest with the sword represents my family crest with motto (translated, literally, means courage towards the summits). The sword's hilt is that of the Acadian Cross. (to honor my family and where I am from)

The flag with the shield represent my nationality (Canadian) and heritage (Acadian)

The Michelle, Ma Belle is a tribute to my mom. The white ribbon, with her year of birth and death, is a rememberence of violence against women (since my mom was a victim of this). The song is written by her favourite band/artist. The frog is a symbol of her french-ness and her collection of frogs while the quill highlights her creative side as well as her translation ability (she was a translator and ran her own successful business as such). This was done to remember my mom in a positive manner. It was freeing and the most painful tattoo I ever got (nearly passed out). Oddly enough, it reminded me of the relationship I had with my mom: meaningful but oh so frustrating. And a tribute to the person she was.

Nope.

It's against my religious beliefs.

I now own 3 very old tattoos from my rebel days of defying dad.

My rabbi told me that there is actually no prohibition to being buried in a Jewish cemetary if you have tattoos. Cremation well yes that is a deal breaker. I do not have any tattoos though.

I have three. My first is a rose tattooed over my heart; as it was my great grandmother's favorite flower. My second is my boxer Chelsea's paw print with her name under it on my left thigh....getting ready to do my right thigh with Miranda's paw print; my boxer I lost last April. My third is a tattoo that says "Butch", on my right hip, just above the wasteline of my boxers.

I have many Jewish friends who have tattoos. I have several myself.


We are not prohibited from being buried in the Jewish cemetary.

The Torah states that it is prohibited and I think being a Jew with tattoos depends on your beliefs, i.e., are you Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, Reconstructionist?

My Turkish Jew grandmother totally did not approve of my cousin and his tattoos (she may have spoken sternly at him in some Ladino expletives )

He is older than I and she never knew I had any...she has died...however she did not disown him or love him any less

Hi there - I do not have any tattoos. Mostly because I just don't like the way they look and I don't want to be stuck with something permanent I might regret later. Melissa

I am actually looking into hopefully getting My first tattoo for My 30th b-day next month, though I am not sure what I wanna get. I'm thinking of something to memorialize the journey that I am beginning as I come out to family and friends as being FTM ......... something to look forward to

I have two tattoos, one on my ankle and one on my left shoulder blade. I'm definitely looking at getting another one.
I talked indepth about my tats and my plans here:

I do admit to having mine in places that make me forget about them at times.
One additional tattoo I'd like to get is (and I know this sounds odd) but an ornate spoon in honor of my late grandmother. She collected them, and I would pick up these little spoons for her when I traveled. After she died, I took over her collection.

No tatts here. Just not interested. Don't like how they look, especially as someone ages. Rufusboi.

Fresh ink this week. Ink for me is personal -an expression of who you are and what you love....they are a "part" of you - so should represent ALL of you...for me it is (more than) just (having ink)...and there are times when you are blessed with great inspiration - so, if you have meaningful work done then they become a road map of your life....your story ... not (just) another tattoo for its own sake....for me it is a creative expression....your inner self being worn on the canvas of your skin.
