rixalex Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I have one - done by bamboo. It is on my right shoulder blade. Am getting another one done on the other side. Both original works - cannot repeat the design. I work in the tourism industry and when anyone does happen to see my tattoo they are amazed by the fact that it was done by bamboo. LOL - when i first read that i thought that Bamboo was the name of some famous Thai tattoo artist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davyboy Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I had 5 tattoos on my arms, but had them removed by laser 17 years ago,and it was a very painful experience. My wife doesn't have any,and says she doesn't like them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtoad Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 5 for me. I think the main issue with tattoos is where they are, and what they are. Mine are easily hidden -which in fairness in certain situations is a good thing. I do know a guy that got a tattoo for his wife - "Property of Chris" tattooed on her ass. They have recently divorced, so I don't know what her next bloke will think when he sees that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have recently divorced, so I don't know what her next bloke will think when he sees that. In the now closed down Shearers bar on Soi Buckow in Pattaya, there was a girl in there with the Newcastle Utd badge tattoo'd slap bang in the middle of her arm, now this girl is really minimilising her chances should the relationship fail .... The partner whoever he maybe must be a complete tw4t to let his chick go through with this! Tattoo's on girls repulse me, it makes them look like scraggy sluts, though if she was fit i still would!

manuchaomk Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I have 2 tattoos, and my old gf got one of a butterfly in BKK because she was so captivated by my tattoos. So how many tattoos do you have and does your Thai GF or wife have any?Most of my farang friends in Thailand have at least one, but many of them have 4 or more. just my crucifix in my upper arm..................... Thai GF ?? .........I don't want to be ripped off, man ! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dondraper Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hmmm... I guess if someone has Semper Fi or USMC tattooed prominently on their forearm or bicep thats gonna close some doors? NOT Of course it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverdie Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I don't have any Tattoos. I don't mind certain Tattoos on people though. I don't judge people by their tattoos, but in my experience the 'Tattoo to tooth ratio' normally comes into play when dealing with low life.

easethesqueeze Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 i really love my tattoos and am proud to be part of what i consider to be an artistic movement. Granted most tattoos look awful but if you take time to consider what you get and go to a good tattooist (most people don't) you should be fine. I love the history of the movement, how the whole thing has developed over the years and the different significant meanings behind the symbolism used by tattooists from different cultures. I studied illustration at UNI so perhaps I'm looking at the whole thing from a different angle but yeah, Love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel2003 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Tattoos on Thai women just label them as bar girls. Sad but true. Not anymore. More and more non-bar girls get tattoos these days in Thailand. Especially musicians/singers. By the way, one of my 3 tattoos is a butterfly, made 20+ years ago. Most of my friends have a lot of fun when they ask me to show it to their female friends. Many of them are surprised that I actually advertise the fact that I am a butterfly (which I am not of course). I have to explain everytime that it does not mean the same where I come from.

WeeGB Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I've got "supercalifragilistic" tattooed on a certain part of my body - but you can only read it properly when I'm excited. Most of the time it justs looks like "super". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t.s Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 there are tattoos and then there are tramp stamps. up to you to decide which your wife is sporting. i have met some wonderful "career" women with some very tasteful tattoos. i have also encountered whores with tragically bad ink. those who claim they hamper folk in the job market, spend way too much time with their colleagues in a state of undress. certainly love and hate tattooed on your fingers is a bad thing, as are facial tattoos, but i have yet to attend a job interview that has asked me to remove my shirt or pants. i actually don't have any ink, but i know many who do, and they seem to be doing alright. i am constantly surprised by the number of people i encounter at the beach with tats on their backs, shoulders or other discreet areas who likewise seem to be doing quite well for themselves. i am however rarely surprised by the number of people i meet sporting "tribal" or "celtic" cliches, or asian characters they cant read but then i also meet people who are poorly dressed daily. as with all things, tattoos are not so much about what you do, but how you do it.

rideswings Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) Im thinking about getting another one of a dragon on my forearm. And Im gonna probably do it here in the USA because prices in Thailand didnt seem that much cheaper. Am I wrong about the prices? My ex-gf butterfly tat was a work of art done on soi nana. But we ended up paying around 1000 baht for it. Seemed a little high for something so small but it looked great.
