When you have that much space to work with, you get to use big crazy letters. I am a smaller guy, by comparison, so my “old english” abdomen tattoo (different word) is not nearly as “big”. In some ways, i’m envious. 🙂

Interesting; my gay friends say that ‘faggot’ is a pejorative terms, and they don’t like anyone using it, gay, straight or otherwise. (Me, I just don’t think that calling someone a “burning or smoldering piece of firewood” is really appropriate.)

I don’t mind being called a faggot when it’s by my gay/lezbo friends and done in jest, or if it’s really hot trade and we’re role-playing. It feels empowering to take back ownership of a word.
I can understand though if some people don’t like it.
But yeah, anyway, COOL TATTOO man!!

#8 – ‘Faggot’ has seriously become the new nigger. Some hate it in any way, shape or form. Some don’t mind it within the community. And others, like myself, don’t care at all as long as it’s not someone being totally assholeish about it.
And, shit, big, tatted, and gay? I’d hit that.
