As a tattoo artist I see it all and seeing a woman without sleeves is sometimes weird. I'm fully sleeved from all around my neck and throat down. No prison art either! All 100% legit shop work. My wife is heavily tattooed, tho no sleeves due to her being a store manager. Sleeves on a woman is no different than on a man.

It's her talent that makes her so hot
Her tattoos and body helps to because their perfect but it's her talent on top of looks that makes her special

Mostly in the traditional "old school" look. I'm old at heart. One of my favorites is a bride of Frankenstein in an old looking frame. My throat piece is a fav and is of a coffin with eagle wings lying on a bed of roses and has a lit candle in te middle

People fit into 2 categories once tattooed: either they'll love it, or they'll hate it. I crave the pain a tattoo brings, it's like an adrenaline rush. Some (mostly men too!) pass out on their first and cry. Yep, those "tough" guy looking dudes almost always she'd a tear. Women take pain good and better than most.
Once you know the feeling and if you like said feeling, it becomes a drug; an addiction.

now don't get me wrong, yes I've seen some beautiful tattoos over the years...but for the most part they just look like shit...and the negative "tattoo" culture is perpetuated with idiots and bad people who have lots of tattoos...I have plenty of family members with tattoos...even my wife has one...I just don't really care to see them at all...and i'm not a conservative either...I dunno its weird I guess...

I have 6 tats, all covered up unless I wear shorts or wear a sleeveless shirt.
Personally I don't like the classic tattoo style, the flash. That tat is more of a manly one, adn the placement on the shoulder looks manly too. I'd recommend coming up with something original and nice-looking, not just another stock template that every artist has in their studio. Have them design something that MEANS something to her, not just a tat for the sake of one. Personally, I wouldn't have any plain black ink ones, I'm a big fan of color...and lots of it

Know what I call those people with crap tattoos and the such? Job Security. There's plenty of great artists out there, even a ton that work from a home environment who are putting out fantastic tattoos.
Everyone has their own opinion. I'm in a Mormon run town and state yet the tattoo scene is huge and only getting bigger. As long as the tattoos aren't of racial hate and the like and are done with great effort, I myself don't mind seeing them and in fact want to see it more. Much like the marijuana were trying so desperately to have welcomed by the masses and see it for what it truly is, I'd like to see more professional business men AND women getting tattoos and being proud in the workplace to show it off. It's not as socially acceptable as one may think, especially in this state.

I guess for me when it comes to tattoos I don't care to ever see snakes, skulls, knives, fire, blood, coffins, vampires, swears, eagles, confederate flags, guns, and pretty much anything that makes me think back to living in the redneck south, as a tattoo...

I feel your compassion bro. I'm a white man and agree a confederate style tattoo should be out of sight. However, most of the ones you describe just happen to be American traditional tattoos sailers would have gotten.I guess for me when it comes to tattoos I don't care to ever see snakes, skulls, knives, fire, blood, coffins, vampires, swears, eagles, confederate flags, guns, and pretty much anything that makes me think back to living in the redneck south, as a tattoo...
People just re-adapt symbols an make hate out of it.

It's not really hate...its more of disgust in my head seeing something like that...no offense given here, but if I looked at you and your tats i'd probably never want to talk to you, ever...it's just something my brain tells me, ewww...stay away...I feel your compassion bro.

my brain says those types of tattoos = disgusting scum piece of trash that is not worth my time to even remotely associate with. Again, not saying you aer a disgusting scum piece of trash...its what my brain says...its like religious people saying I'm going to hell for being atheist

Know what's funny? I do the same thing. It's only human. However, I can say this about myself, you'd be missing out on either a great convo or completely turning your back on someone that would stick up for you in any way. That's what stereo-typing does to us. We've all been there whether it is us stereo-typing or the ones being stereo-typed. Sad but is of our nature.It's not really hate...its more of disgust in my head seeing something like that...no offense given here, but if I looked at you and your tats i'd probably never want to talk to you, ever...it's just something my brain tells me, ewww...stay away...

I'm a nice guy that's never been into trouble with the law and never did any drugs till I hit 30. Marijuana of course, not even a cigarette. But due to being stereo-typed my whole life (17 on) people swore on their lives I was a druggie. Should have seen their faces when they were proved otherwise! Hell, I hardly drink but 3-4 times a year. I'm a health nut as a matter of fact.
point is this: give people a chance because (now don't take offense) people like you in general give tattooed people a bad name. It's the truth...EDIT: I too am not religious but believe in Karma
