Someone explain this to me.
Anyway, the reason I want a tribal tattoo, is simply because they're so unspecific. I don't want to get a design that means something to me, then in 20 years means sweet f.a. I just want a good design. And chavs dont use tribal tattoos only girls, on the base of their back.
Acting like a neandertall marks you as one, not by the tattoo you have Big3

1. I think, they think it's a ganster/tribe/group thing.

2. Tramp stamps.

3. Well said.

so you think a design that means f*ck all to you now will somehow be better? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard, you may as well just get "I don't want a tattoo badly enough to think of anything meaningful, so I'm just tattooing this meaningless shit on my body so I can look hardcore. FUCK YEAH BITCHES!!"

not neccerely, i plan to get a tat on my lower back, but my tat will have personal symbolism as well, kinda like a heart with winf, unlike other girls, i want mine about medium sized, not to big, not tiny either, and for someone my age, and as a female where i live, i got what is consiter a big tatto for the area where i have one alread, it a celtic style cross, my mum drew from me folloing a book on symbolism of the celtic cross, it not a generic celtic motif either, but a patten that no longer use of circles that interlock to gether, there a pic of it somewhere up here, and it quite big for a first tattoo as well, instead of the stamp size midget tat other girls get their frist time...

so it all up to the person getting it

but please don't get something off the flash, it not one of a kind, and don't get something you will want removed later, for me i though2 very long years over what i wanted, and got something that meant something to me because once its there, it permenant, unless you wish to pay more that triple the pprice if not more to remove it

I would find out what you want, print it out a few times and stick them up in your room or the bathroom or somewhere you will see them often and leave them up for at least 3-6 months. If you still think it's fantastic, then get it. If you still like it but not as much, you may like it even less in the future and that's probably something you'd want to take a bit longer to think about.

I think most tattoo's are ugly... So I'd recommend you not to get one.

But if you must, make it something special to you, I agree with Jib on that one.

Ma Cherie

depends, do you want it read right out, smbols as in asian or calligraphy?

if i get mine, i'm getting my european name in katakana, and my japanese one(used for art ect...) in kanji( like whats on my hanko(ink seal))

it the preference in the eye of the beholder..., just think on what you want what do you like?

I've never seen the point in having something tatooed on you in another language, is it meant to make it more meaningfull, if you want your tatoo to say something let them spell it in plain ****ing english,
