I do not have one. It would annoy me to have something permanent on my body. You go through phases in life and then you move on. A tattoo would feel like a permanent reminder of somebody I am not any more. I don't even keep emails and letters, why would I "keep" a tattoo?

I don't have, not even a dot. If I would have one, I would prefer to have my children's name tattooed on my palm in chinese characters - in that way, I would always remember that I am carrying my children and raise them with my own will. Although sometimes, tattoos are ways of recognizing someone (especially those unrecognized dead people), I don't think it'll make someone cool. To me, it doesn't take to be having a (painful) tattoo to be cool. Your behavior will carry it. :)

I have four fairly large tattoos. But not to look a cool guy. Mine are all on the front of my body (why have a tattoo on your back where your never going to see it???) and can all be covered by a T-Shirt. They are for me not for other people to admire. Tattoo's should be for yourself and should never be a spur of the moment thing. Mine are now 14 years old and I love them now as much as i did when I got them. They become a part of you and if you have chosen to get tattoos for the right reasons you will I imagine always love them. The only thing I would never do is get a persons name (with the exception of my child) tattooed on me you never know what your future will hold.

I don't have one. Did you know that it's quite popular to wear chinese tattoos? Well, I don't mean dragons, mountains, bamboo... I mean hanzi. People think it is chic (/en vogue /trendy /fancy) to have something written on their skin. Words nobody except themselves can read. (In fact, even they can't read it). Nor the artist who made it. They use the internet or books to choose the characters. Some people ask AFTER they get the chinese tattoo. To learn that it's japanese. Or mirrored (/inverse). To learn that it doesn't mean anything. Or something else. Or worse. D., who doesn't want to be a cool guy (if tattoos are necessary).

No I don't have one as once you get one, it's almost impossible to remove.
