Those are awesome, took me a minute to figure out I was looking at them upside down 🙂
if those say hold like i think they say…
i love love love them!
“hold here” right?
sexay
Hold Here? Hmmm…Odd…Good lettering though.
hahaha wow 🙂
I hoped for a clickthrough 🙂
this is the link to nicky bee’s page:

he’s the tattooer, i’m the tattooee. the link posted is to my page.
rank trainers though :oX
The sweatpants and yellow nikes are a complete turnoff, but the tattoo is hot.
I like that pose…
_\w/_
awesome
I’m so jealous…very jealous I love this
she should be wearing heels though
No the shoes are awesome. I love instructional tattoos, too.
girl or boy?! i can’t tell by the ankles! is this why my life is in shambles?
I don’t get your use of the word ‘slut’, is it a joke?
this tattoo would be soo hot if she was wearing, say, a short skirt and black heels. as it is, it does nothing for me. the sweats and sneakers are so bleh.
14 – does it matter?
15 – ‘slut’ isnt always a negative word… and i really dont think it was meant negatively here 🙂
love it!
they ain’t sweats, they’re black jeans cuffed. and i’m a girl. and i’m not a slut. i’m just funny.
I love it; hilarious!
Hilarious! And the shoes rock!
I think that’s darling! 😀
i love that she’s wearing running shoes and sweats. sorry, gentlemen, even girls with tattoos are not porn all the time.
haha some people need to lighten up
yay for RVA.
I had to turn my laptop around to read it! Nice font. I think that heels and skirt would have made the photo sexy looking (b/c heels and a skirt always do that) but its still a nice photo.
Even though they’re not sweat pants, sweat pants are still sexy! I’m gonna have to agree with #22, we’re not dolls. And what the hell, people complain if there is too much gratuity and people complain if there’s not enough!
Everything about that is rad!
lol, love this 🙂
clever and horny. awesome.
Haha, it took me ages to work out what they said, but once I did it made me giggle!
Slut is a derogatory term, no matter how you try to spin it just like the, ahem, “N” word. When people try to reclaim it, all they do is degrade themselves and others.
Just because it’s a sexually themed tattoo, she doesn’t have to be dressed for it. Honestly, who gets tattoos in fuck-me pumps? A sexual person doesn’t equal some stereo-typical Barbie and Ken effigy.
If it is a private tatoo then legitimately a person can say that regardless of the subject matter, it’s sensual. If it is somewhere on the body that can easily be seen by others and presumably will be seen by others then yeah, that is a fairly clear statement that you are naughty by nature. ie; slut. In other words, I kinda doubt that anyone who had “hold here” tattooed (beautifully) upside-down on their ankles would rankle at the idea of being called a slut. Unless you are saying there’s something bad about sluts? There are far worse personality traits than being slutty. In my opinion.
“Unless you are saying there’s something bad about sluts?” That is not what I was saying at all.
What I was saying is, slut is such a damaging label. There just has to be a more endearing term for someone who has had multiple sexual partners and isn’t afraid to be perceived as sexual.
Hrm. Like changing “faghag” to “fairyprincess”. Sure, but what?
I just think it’s counter-progressive to refer to a girl who is comfortable with her sexuality as a ‘slut’. While there is obviously nothing wrong with taking control of your sexuality, the term ‘slut’ implies that it is wrong.
It’s rude and sexist, and obviously she doesn’t apply the term to herself
i.e. “and i’m not a slut. i’m just funny.”
I love red tattoos with no outlines, and it looks like a weird language -super cool.
blah blah blah sluts blah blah PC… great tat!!!! love funny bitches!
Kara, get a grip.
Oh, was I being a snarky cunt? 😉
The word you search for is man
I think people who get all ate up and PC about words are the ones making them still offensive. Let it go.
And that tattoo rocks, I’m still thinking of different positions where they could apply.
i agree with #39 — if no one were offended by the term, it wouldn’t be considered offensive. let it go.
also, i’m assuming the wearer of this tattoo probably has a decent sense of humour about her sexuality, considering what her tattoo says. =)
I tend to think that those who bash people who take offense at insults have never been repressed with them in the first place and have no idea what it is like to actually be persecuted and hurt because of other peoples perceptions of you.
And number 37, you defend misogyny and your unapologetic ignorance with a further insult to unabashed and unrepressed women. Bravo.
I’m done. Good bye. (“we never needed your opinion anyway, good riddance, hur hur hur”)
i think we need to see who this is on…..
This Tattoo Is FUCKING AMAZING.
I wish I had thought of that!
I love raunchy-ish tattoos in nice script like this.
hmmm….
😀

If only you.
Knew.
Where is Alyssa when needed?
Bedlam,
perhaps you should read
this.
Shannon, just TOS me now. 😉
The term “slut” can be taken offensively or humorously, same as bitch. Don’t tell me y’alls don’t refer to your best friends as bicthes sometimes (ie: “Yo bitch hand me a soda pop.”). Anyway, I don’t think anyone was trying to offend me by calling me a slut, especially since there’s nothing on my page that would indicate me being so. Sure, it could be seen as a slutty tattoo, but to me, and to the guy who tattooed me, and to all my friends, it’s just a funny tattoo.
Say hi to me if you have any questions about it.
>>>Don’t tell me y’alls don’t refer to your best friends as bicthes sometimes
Never. They all have names.
