 | fitman (36) 01/12/2008 | Apparently, the compiler of this list equates bad taste with poverty. A quick look around will correct that misaprehension.

 | numbah16tdhaha (147) 01/12/2008 | Almost anybody can get a tattoo. Now its just a sign of the stupidity of youth.
UPDATE: What and where define it. Even little rich girls are getting the "tramp stamp" (tattoo on the lower back) but the guys with stuff on their knuckles are on a whole other level than those ditzy chicks...

 | DumbBlondeCowgirl (23) 03/14/2006 | I don't consider it low class at all. Even on a woman. Even the stuffiest upper class woman was 18 once....I don't think she got that way over night. Tastefully done, you can look at a woman and not know she even has one. I have two....as long as I'm wearing at least a tank top, you'd never know I have them.

 | Vudija (92) 03/14/2006 | As I have stated a couple of times; there are certain things that I do not mind and certain things that I do. A tattoo (especially those that hold significant importance to its owner, like mine) is okay, but there are ways to easily take it overboard. I dislike seeing anyone (man or woman) with tattoos on the hands or face, simply because there is pretty much no way to cover them up in situations where it would be more professional to do so. I also dislike large tattoos, full arm or leg sleeves, or any tattoo that is offensive in nature. A small tattoo, that is easily covered up or shown off during any given situation, is not that bad.

 | operator 409 (7) 03/14/2006 | Especially on women. Say whatever you want about the 'artwork' or self expression of a tattoo. On female flesh, I consider it a BLEMISH. Throw in nose rings, eyebrow bolts and unnatural hair color, and you turn an otherwise possibly attractive woman into something that could be picked up at a scratch-and-dent sale.

 | 93century (36) 01/22/2006 | Im not against tattoo's, but anyone who gets a tattoo of their mates name should be shot. If you happen to breakup with the person, you are stuck with a tattoo of your ex's name.

 | LanceRoxas (40) 12/29/2005 | I have a couple tatoos and wouldn't consider myself low class. My fiancee has a tatoo. My brother also has one. I wouldn't consider either of them low class. Tatoos are all about location. If they're on your neck face or overly done then yes. But a tatoo in and of itself isn't low class.

 | MariusQelDroma (36) 12/28/2005 | Come on, famous rich people sport tattoos (Angelina Jolie among others). While it is true you see tattoos more often on the working man, there are enough notable exceptions to make me question it a bit.

 | jamestkirk (23) 12/28/2005 | More popular than I can believe, but I am amazed by the number of young ladies who get one.

 | Underspin (24) 11/06/2005 | In the year 2005, for the most part tattoos are essentially meaningless, pointless attempts at looking "cool." Like piercings, they were passe over 10 yrs ago...typically having more than one means you have money to burn on skin-deep superficial scrawl. But let it be said, such shallow activities defy class boundries - just check out any bleach-blonde mall chick with her dumb-ass navel ring and ass-crack tattoo.

 | scarletfeather (47) 11/04/2005 | Personally, I don't like tattoos, but I've known plenty of middle class folks who get tattoos. It's a popular trend right now.

 | souljunkie (20) 11/04/2005 | I dont agree here. Tatoos are plain fashionable right now. While Ive gone 46 years without getting one, my younger wife wants me to (Shes thirty and has a few). My wife is from a working class family but she is smarter than me and is in middle management. Tatoos are for everyone, I'd say the only group that feels totally threatened by them would be the far right christian kind.

 | CastleBee (81) 11/04/2005 |  When I was growing up I definately always associated the ugly "art" of body defacing with "white socks, red neck, Blue Ribbon beer" types. You may think it was a WWII/Koren War veteran thing but, while it was popular with a lot of service guys (and many to follow), I can tell you that my father wouldn't have done it if he'd been on 3 day drunk and double dog dared by his best buddies. (Though, he did once challenge a police officer to a drag race on such an occasion - few of us ever escape our youthful moments of questionable judgement.)
Today though it's become such a fad with so many (yes, I've even known geezers in my age group who have succumbed to this strange ritual) that you can't really associate it with a specific group. I still hate it though and all I can think when I see someone with an over abundance is - why in the name of the supreme carnival geek god would you want to put graffitti all over your bod? Henna tatoos - yeah, okay if you must - but at least you have the option to change your mind. Another thought always runs through my mind too - before too many years there are going to be some really strange looking sights in a lot of old folks homes as everyone sits around playing, Find and Identify My Tatoo.

 | zuchinibut (36) 11/04/2005 | This was probably a blue collar/working man type of deal a generation ago, but now its almost a rite of passage for both males and females to get a tattoo when they turn 18. Almost everybody gets tattoos now regardles of race, gender, or class.

 | SZinHonshu (44) 11/02/2005 | I agree with GTH's assessment. This has become a much more commonly accepted practice with the Clinton babies and hip hop aficionados. I'm neither, and was born when Kennedy was the president, consequently, I take the position that tattoos are only immune from the "Proletarian Badge" category when they appear on a current or former member of the armed services.

 | GenghisTheHun (168) 11/02/2005 | If you are over forty, this is true. Look at older people and check for tatoos on upper income, upper class people. The distiction is blurring among the Gen X crowd.

 | Jed1000 (72) 11/02/2005 | This list is an elitist load of rot. Almost as bad as the list that tried to imply that the way a man knots his tie or the order in which someone eats their peas and carrots is an indication of rank or "class." Complete drivel.
