I never would. Three reasons: 1. I find the concept of pure, unmarked skin appealing (and increasingly rare - being "unmarked" will eventually be the novelty) 2. I can't imagine feeling the same about a design now as when I'm 50/60/70, given how much my thoughts, tastes and feelings have changed in the last five and ten years alone 3. Most tattoos that I have seen tend to look worse as they age and the person ages I have dated people with tattoos, though I would never date anyone with something like a facial tattoo. I also think it's a world more fun to mess around with temporary designs and henna tattoos. I wouldn't want to permanently dye my hair blue, but blue streaks may be fun for a month or two. That's how I feel about tattoos.
I always think of the posters I had on my walls in High School and College. I would never hang those on the walls of my home now. My tastes have changed dramatically, why wouldn't it change in regards to the artwork I put on my body?
Exactly. I also look at some heavily tattooed people, like David Beckham, and he has probably one of the most "ideal" male bodies (as his sporting and modelling careers would be testament to) out there. And yet his tattoos, the volume and position of them, just look like a mess. They truly are just "sleeves". They do nothing for him, and even look bad. If someone with his body can't wear that volume of ink, who can?
