- The Art of Tattoos - October 6, 2012
It’s interesting to see the progression that tattoos have made over the years; what began as what was perceived to be a form of acupuncture and healing is now a full-on expression of self and personality. Everyone has tattoos nowadays, from your local barista to even the most revered of celebrities. Maybe it was these celebrities, these Angelina Jolies and these Tommy Lees, who have made them so socially acceptable. What we’re seeing more and more is an acceptance, not just on a persona l-level but also a professional level, of inked flesh.
As someone who is no stranger to tattoos, having almost a dozen myself, I’ve found that they’ve almost become a turn-on for people. Tattoos have become a symbol of rebellion and seduction, of mystery and intrigue. This is exactly why women love rock stars: the whole “bad boy” image is perpetuated by the crazy hair and the tattoos. They can’t help but be attracted to them if, for no other reason, that it represents something different—even though in this day and age, it is more common than not. Seriously, Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber have tattoos.
Basically, the main thing to take away from this is, if you want to get laid, get a tattoo.
