No one here said they couldn’t get tattooed if they wanted to. They were expressing that they like or don’t like tattoos and why.
Like many other threads here. The question was simply asked out of curiosity.
do you get turned off by women with tattoos

Not sure where I said people here said that girls couldn't get tattoo's if they wanted to???
All I said was it is her choice . I also said that for every guy that does not find her / tattoos attractive there are about 5 more people out there that do.
That's all. Wasn't trying to cause drama. This topic has been discussed many times before. Its almost like deja vu.
I prefer no tattoos on women personally but if there elegantly done and in the right place on the right women it can be very attractive. For example a women with a fit body and small waist who has a tattoo on her lower back right above her ass is incredibly sexy to me.
a small number of small ones sure. Large prominent one? Just me but I see it as low class/look how I’ve suffered trauma/I’m mentally messed up. Not a turn on.
No tattoos are hot. I find the older I get, the more skin turns me on. Soft smooth skin is a real turn on. Tattoos muck that up for me.
For me, it is probably where the tattoo are. Tramp stamp, fine. Small things on arm? Sure. Massive belly tattoo or anything on the breasts....fuck no!
I come from a time when only guys in the military, bikers & strippers had tattoos & the stigma has stuck with me & sorry but neck or face tattoos just says white trash to me.
A couple smaller ones doesn't bother me, but some of these girls look like they did ten years in a Mexican prison....

My wife and I both have tattoos, She has about 5, small and tasteful. One on her foot, one on lower abdomen, one down her side, a small one between two of her fingers and a small one on one of her wrists. I have 11, on my arms, chest, and leg. The thing about all of our tattoos is that if we had to, we can easily cover them up so that you wouldn't know we had any.
No sleeves or anything like that.
Because my wife and I work in an industry where appearance counts for something and often deal with older, maybe more conservative clients, we make the decision to cover up our ink so as to not 'offend' them. But, conversely, if we are working with younger, more easy going clients, then we know we can show our ink. But these days, so many younger people have ink now so it rarely even brings up a discussion anymore.
Someone once told me that if a client is 'offended' because you have a tattoo or look at you like your some kind of criminal because of it, then they are not worth having as a client. The reality, however, is that clients are income so we cannot always play that 'fuck you' card.
Funny story about tattoos. My 17 y/o son got a fairly large tattoo of a lion on his upper arm that is about half a sleeve at the moment. Its one of those that really makes you look like a tough guy I guess. Plus he works out and is very muscular so its a pretty cool look. Anyway, he went for hockey tryouts for a junior team and while he was changing in the room, the coach walked in, saw this 17 y/o with huge arms and this big tattoo and said to everyone, "this kid doesn't even have to skate, I'm taking him based on his tattoo alone. No one will fuck with him".
So maybe it opens doors for some.

No objection to tats on any woman. But tats that don't "fit" the woman wearing it is a sad sight. I knew an attractive, short young lady years ago who had this monstrous sized colourful flower tattoo on her thigh. Great looking tattoo but the size and the colours were so dominant that it looked bad on her.

That's how Connor Bedard wound up going first overall. Chicago got one look at his 'My little Pony' tattoo and said 'Lock this kid up! Clearly he's a generational talent we simply have to have on our roster!' LOL!
Love ink, I prefer women with it.
Not many years ago, there was a stigmatism associated with it. Didn’t we call them tramp stamps? Even today, there’s still some. “Women with ink aren’t attractive” or trashy, or.
When ink started becoming more acceptable on women, (about 10-15 years ago) many work places they still needed to hide it. Where as I had no concerns about my ink
While today, it’s a much a fad as anything especially among younger people, and everyone has to have some. It still says something about a woman’s confidence to display ink.I find that sexy.
As with anything. If it’s done well, artistically vs an hot mess…..And for many people, each tat has a story/meaning behind it.I like hearing those too.

Although this won't scare me off from seeing her if she is my type facially.They are always ugly, and the idea of permanently inking yourself for a fad shows bad life choices [All fashion is a fad, it's like someone in the late 70s going, hey I am going to dress like Herb Tarlek, that will never go out of style, and yeah there are procedures but they still leave a mark. It is often a sad attention seeking effort also... ohh you are so edgy and cool getting some work done that everyone else on the planet has had done.
If a girl is attractive it can only take away... I mean I am into chicks, not filth injected under skin.
It's even worse than natural redheads who dye their hair.
As for your other point, erm, no. You should probably hang out with a better class of people.

Nobody is saying otherwise, strawman argument. Also if she actually doesn't care what anyone thinks of her, then nobody should have any objection that others find them disgusting however everytime someone expressed their negative opinion on tattoos you get the inked crowd losing their shit over it to one degree or another... so yeah I think they do care.

I prefer no tattoos. I can tolerate 1 or 2 small tattoos like on her ankle or wrist. But large tattoos or sleeves really turn me off. Especially neck,face or the new fad chest plate tattoo. Thigh tats and sleeves are a no go for me.
I really just don't get it.

Do you likewise find
Breast implants ugly?
Fake nails and lashes?
Make up?
Every bit as superficial and artificial.
As I said, even today, for women to display ink takes confidence. I find that far sexier than the above.
Why did it start or how did start that women must have a tattoos? Movie?, a play? TV show?
Anyone know?

It started with mass media... when celebrities/entertainers and athletes started getting tattoos, it was just a matter of time before fans and ordinary folks followed suit.
I remember when Denis Rodman was basically the only guy in the NBA with dyed hair and tattoos. Then Allen Iversion came around, and before you knew it, most NBA players had tats.
Lil Wayne made face tattoos cool for other artists. Interestingly, many people with tattoos shun the idea of getting one on their face. They treat face tattoos the way people in the 1950s treated tattoos anywhere on the body.
