First of all, tattoos can make you look mentally ill. When psychiatrists review patients, they make note of their appearance, and they will make note of your tattoos. You're statistically more likely to be crazy or to be a pervert if you've got tattoos.

The funny thing is, I perceive people around my age with tattoos as being more adult than me, especially women. I'm a 25-year-old man. I would feel more nervous approaching a 25-year-old woman with tattoos than a 25-year-old woman without tattoos, even if she only has a few small tattoos or a few letters or small symbols on her hands. I actually feel like their standards would be higher, which is a bit paradoxical, since I also view women with tattoos as being kinkier (at least easier to hook up with) and trashier (so lower status).

What is going on here? I believe my self esteem is playing a role, as I am currently low income with no real hope for a higher income in the next few years, and I am also currently still a bit fat, but gradually making consistent progress on my looks. (I'm 5'11, by the way.) These two things hurt my self esteem, and the low income makes me feel more childish. You technically need disposable income to buy tattoos, and they seem like one of the last things you'd spend your disposable income on. I've never gotten a tattoo, but I'm not really scared of needles, as I've been injecting steroids for the past 10 months (I am also aware steroid usage makes you look mentally ill, but I started lifting in 2013, so I don't give a damn at this point.), but I still feel like people with tattoos, especially women, could be a bit tougher than me simply because they've gone through the process of getting a tattoo. This perceived higher toughness makes me feel more childish next to women with tattoos.

Women with tattoos still turn me on, as they have that kinky aura to them, but I still feel like they're more of an adult than I am and that I stand less of a chance with them as a consequence.

It's the opposite for me. I seem them as damaged, low inhibition people with something to prove.

Tattoos can also make someone look pretty intimidating. You already look a bit crazy for getting something permanently on your body that advertises a bit of who you are, but tattoos are also a bit of a painful process, especially if you get them on your neck, hands, and feet, so you would've gone through the process knowing it's painful and withstood the pain.

>>81616105 (OP)
that's just, like, your fetish, man. to me it's the contrary, i can't take women (and men) seriously if they even have a single tattoo on their body. it reeks of bad long-term planning and other weak cognitive skills, which are only trouble. they're not more adult than you, they're less adult, due to their immature life decisions. maybe you're just envious of their chaotic lifestyle due to being sheltered from the outside world for too long

>>81616105 (OP)
ASS! OBLITERATE!

>>81616105 (OP)
Tattoos look trashy as fuck. Literal run-down ghetto chic.

>>81616105 (OP)
>tattoos make you look more adult
That's because we view tattoos as a mature or even threatening thing as tattoos can remove the element of innocence (which we conflate with purity, which is then conflated with looking young)

>>81616424
>it reeks of bad long-term planning and other weak cognitive skills, which are only trouble.
Alright, but lots of attractive people have tattoos, and psychiatrists know that more attractive people generally have better mental health, but people with tattoos obviously have some problems.
>maybe you're just envious of their chaotic lifestyle due to being sheltered from the outside world for too long
There might be some truth to this.

This. Tattoos will make you look more intimidating, and thus less approachable, due to making you appear less innocent, and this also makes you appear more adult.

>>81616424
>>81616519
I got the whole idea for starting this thread after thinking about this fit attractive girl I saw at the gym yesterday who was either around my age or slightly younger, but most likely a few years younger, since I live in a college town and this gym is near the college campus. I only recall seeing a few tattoos on her hands, but after thinking about it today, I actually perceived her as being much more adult than me, likely due to those tattoos alone.

citation needed. you just have a tattoo kink and you're being weird about it. you're not even making any arguments in favor of anything. go jack off in peace, you don't have to justify yourself to anyone.

this one is such a butter face, tragic really.

>>81616661
>you just have a tattoo kink
TONS of people have this kink, and tons of people have this idea that people with tattoos are kinkier and more open to casual sex. It is very common to have this idea about people with tattoos. The point of OP is to discuss how and why people with tattoos appear more adult.
>citation needed.
Well, I saw one yesterday, and there are tons of images online of attractive people with tattoos.

>>81616739
>TONS of people have this kink
citation needed. it's not even in the top 10 pornhub keywords. you're clearly very biased, which only serves to make your point that people with tattoos are more "adult" even more ridiculous. i'm telling you, go masturbate, the post-nut clarity will help you think more logically.

>>81616759
I might have a weak tattoo kink. I've don't recall ever intentionally looking up tattoos when searching for porn or any other sexual content. I've talked with several people over the years, and the idea that women with tattoos are kinkier and more open to casual sex is super common, and they're likely right. This idea can result in people becoming a bit hornier when they see a woman with tattoos, since they're imagining doing kinky shit with her a lot of women would likely get weirded out by.

People with tattoos typically have lower inhibition. They weren't thinking very far ahead and were very impulsive when they got those tattoos. People who have casual sex are also low inhibition. People who are open to doing kinky shit in bed are also low inhibition.

>>81616870
i wish i had the upsides of being both high and low inhibited without any of the downsides baka

>>81616105 (OP)
Women with tattoos are mentally ill. Why would a woman do something to make herself look more gruff if not for something that made her be that way? Soft, pleasant women simply don't get them and that's all you need to understand.

>>81616105 (OP)
counter point: picrel

in my experience girls with lots of tattoos are always fucked in the head

>>81616948
girls with tattoos is quality over quantity when it comes to sex. i'd rather have a tattooless prude nerd gf who's a closeted nymphomaniac and a huge freak in bed

>>81616927
>Why would a woman do something to make herself look more gruff
Tattoos can also make her look sexier. A lot of the tattoos women get draw attention to different parts of their bodies, like their breasts, their asses, and their pussies. This woman has a butterfly tattoo that draws attention to her pussy, and this other woman has tattoos everywhere except her ass.
>>81616948
>>81616288
>if not for something that made her be that way?
I don't understand.

>>81616105 (OP)
The majority of women I have fucked have had tattoos (since tattoos are mainly a feminine thing and like half of women have tattoos) so I have been conditioned into finding them sexually arousing, but man, they do NOT look mature. They look childish since, again, the majority of tattoo-havers are women under 30.

>>81616105 (OP)
Women with tattoos are far more likely of having stds, mental illness, being coalburners or giga whores

When I see stuff like this I think "what a stupid bitch."

>>81616105 (OP)
I can understand wanting a bunch of tattoos but I can't understand wanting literally every inch of your skin covered in ink

And so are most anons in this thread. Tattoos, liking tattoos, and being aroused by tattoos only ever indicates imbecilism and clinical retardation. All of them are ugly, they look like a skin disease that is always a symptom of a brain disease.

>and being aroused by tattoos only ever indicates imbecilism and clinical retardation.
I'm not sure if there's ever been a study on this, but I guaran-fucking-tee you women with tattoos are much easier to score with, and they're going to be much more open to trying kinky shit with you without getting weirded out or turned off. I am a bit turned on by tattoos themselves, as they can often highlight different parts of a woman's body, but most of the attraction is to the fact that I know, on a logical level, that women with tattoos are easier and kinkier. I just see tattoos on a woman and think "sex"! I've been like this since I was in middle school. (I'm 25 now.) I do not regularly look up images of women with tattoos and jack off to them. I wouldn't say this is an actual fetish of mine. My dad often told me growing up about how fucked up a lot of people with tattoos are. I made the connection between the poor mental health of a lot of people with tattoos and promiscuity myself, and it seems like tons of other anons independently have as well. The hodge twins recently made a video of this crazy tatted woman with satanist tattoos and brought up how she's likely super kinky in bed. Tons of normies have made this connection.

You're not on the sex having board. This isn't even a larp as a sex haver board. You might want to fuck right back off to /b/. Sex with them doesn't matter one bit. You can't make this connection. You're retarded.
Just like those bitches are. Life is not about sex anyway. I don't want to look at ugly whores either.
They're ugly. Tattoos are ugly too. There really isn't much more to it.

>>81618786
You sound like you're on drugs. What you say doesn't make any sense.

>>81618830
That is because you're retarded. It's very simple. Tattoos are bad. They indicate being an NPC an d a retard on 2025 too. They're ugly. Sex doesn't matter because it doesn't come into the question at all.
Besides no man of value worth a damn will ever stick his precious dick into an srd ridden prostitute covered in ink. Tattoo = whore.

>>81618854
Yeah, you're on drugs, at least drunk.

>>81618868
And it matters why or how? Would anybody being sober change the reality of tattoos? No. You're posting for the sake of posting, which reinforces the fact that you're retarded.

The thread got derailed a bit. The topic in OP is mainly about tattoos making people look more adult. I feel a bit intimidated by women around my age (I'm 25.) or in their early 20s who have tattoos (excluding obese women). I feel like a bit of a kid next to them. I'm not a complete loser. I started lifting in 2013 and take it very seriously. It's just that I'm low income.

>>81616105 (OP)
It is always depressing to see women completely ruin their hot bodies with tattoos.

>>81616655
Don't forget the Animal Crossing, Donkey Kong, and Buzz Lightyear.

It looks gross

I also don't want weird forever chemicals on my body

>>81616948
This isn't true at all. It's like the retards that say fat bitches give better head. Yes, sure some fat bitches do glorp and glob and throat that shit like it's the last thing on planet earth but not all fat bitches give demonic throat. Just like not all tattooed whores fuck amazing. Just like not all hot chicks are great in bed.

A corroded gynocentric society that does not value purity anymore will conflate maturity to looking like a nigger

>>81620263
>Don't forget the Animal Crossing, Donkey Kong, and Buzz Lightyear.
Women are likely to get stupid feminine tattoos like that, but look at her hands: skeleton tattoos. These are the types of tattoos people get when they want to look intimidating. Unless people stop to observe your tattoos, if you're tatted up like that lady, you will just look like a criminal psychopath. It does create an intimidating look. This makes them less approachable. I believe that other anon is right when he stated that tattoos can remove the appearance of innocence, and this in turn can result in a more adult-like appearance. >>81616519
