Would someone please just tell me why?
Why the lower back tattoos?
Now, I don’t have problem with tattoos, in general. I’m all about the freedom of expression that I believe the tattoo symbolizes and represents. In fact, there have been times I have considered getting one myself. I could never decide what to get though. Should it be the “LOVE”, or “HATE”, or “F#CK” across the knuckles? Maybe the Tao symbol on my neck? Maybe an AK47 across my back? Maybe the barbwire around my massive biceps? Or, maybe just a little Peace symbol on my ankle? Either way, I wanted something cute…but couldn’t ever decide.
But, what I don’t understand is women getting the lower back tattoo… a la…
(I got this image from the web. I did not take this pic and I don’t know this person. Put “lower back tattoo” in Google Image and there are lots more examples, if you need ’em.)
Why? For what purpose? What do they mean? What do they imply? And, the designs that include “eyes”?
The lecherous and lascivious have an idea, I think.

What tattoo? I’m too busy staring at her butt.
I think that’s the idea. I’ll admit I kind of like them, but I’m not sure why. I wouldn’t get one if I was a girl, though.
“All right kids, who wants to see Great-grandma’s ass-tattoo?”

I have always wanted a tattoo – until I saw grandpa’s tattoo from the war (II that is) What was once and eagle one what was once a firm and muscular arm laid a large blue blob.
Oh yeah – and once when I mentioned a tattoo to my father he said that if I defaced my body with tattoos I would go to hell. I believed that until I had a fear of needles. Now I don’t need the hell defense.
I am considering it yet again (the tattoo not going to hell) Looking at an IU pitchfork for my ankle. Because if I put anything on my ass it would be Purdue.
