While I do agree that tattoos should not necessarily be an "impulse" decision, I do feel that most people put entirely too much emphasis on "what'll you think when you're older? What will your grandchildren think?" etc etc. Bottom line, tattoos are fun. Tattoos are an expression. That expression does no necessarily have to be about who you ARE. That expression can be humour. That expression can be one of your passions. And, that tattoo can EVEN be an expression of your favorite garment. I read somewhere a lady tattooed a coat hanger on the back of her neck as a symbol of her love of fashion. Yes, the tattoo is there forever. So, thought (especially in regards to location on the body) should be weighed. If you're willing to wear that particular tattoo on said particular limb. By all means DO IT!
I guess bottom line is, don't take it all so seriously. Have fun with tattoos and your skin. Life is entirely too short to ask all of the "what if" questions. This doesn't mean that I think someone should go out and tattoo "F--- YOU" across the forehead or some other nonsense. Use good taste, and just enjoy it all for what it's worth.
I agree.
It's your body and your choice.
