Sure it might look kinda of cool and the person doing the tattoo tells you what it means or at least that's what they think it means.

I'm oriental and can read the symbols. I seen a few tats on girls, one on the lower back and pretty big, the meaning was Horse. I not sure why anybody would want horse on them. I've seen others, where the meaning is ugly, or bitch lol.

Mostly beacuse you can condense a full sentence or meaning into one or two characters.

It also looks cooler than the Western alphabet

Well perhaps the ugly and bitch were accurate descriptions once the tattoo artist got to know the women.

We like to laugh at Asian "engrish", where some error in English is just fucking hilarious, but I have to say the same thing happens sometimes when people who don't read Chinese use Chinese characters.

Often the character isn't drawn properly. Chinese has a stroke order, the character has to be drawn in a certain way, and if the strokes are drawn in the wrong order it just looks stupid. You see tattoos that look like a pre-schooler drew it sometimes.

Other times they write an English sentence in Chinese and it makes no sense at all, it's ridiculous

Even funnier sometimes they put a word they think means one thing, but it actually means something different. I actually saw a guy with "fart" tattooed on his neck. I asked him what he thought it meant, and he told me an archaic meaning of the word, I guess he looked it up in a dictionary that left out meanings like "fart".

I saw a one character tatoo on this beautiful blonde Australian SC dancer. I thought it was Chinese but she said it was actually Japanese and meant "lust". She said that Japanese men absolutely drool over beautiful blonde White women. She made a ton of money in Japan but it was hard to fit in to that society (virtually 100% Japanese*).

Yes, yes, one or two TERBIES will probably ask me to "prove" the 100% figure. Hee, hee, hee.

well, i think it looks stupid and ignorant, and that goes for any tat, and that's jmo

but, it could be a lot worse

remember the people who were selling their bodies as ad space on ebay? that could be the English equivalent :eek:

There was a show on this topic. They also went to China and found Chinese people with English text tattoos that made no sense. Guess the grass seems greener on the other side.

There's a whole website devoted to funny fucked up english:

www.engrish.com

Basically the people who put on the chinese tattoos are just as funny especially when they try and translate an english phrase into chinese word for word.

I have seen upside down characters, mirror image characters, stuff just written completely wrong, and like I said, a guy who did not know that what he actually had written on his neck was "fart".

I agree! Mrs. CG has one too, on her lower back similar to this:



It is her name in Chinese characters... (yes it has been checked to be sure. LOL)

While tending bar, it occasionally become visible while she's reaching up or bending over, and the "cool" guys all try and start a conversation like: "Hey gorgeous, what's your tattoo mean?" To which she replies "Happily Married!" LOL
