No, I’m not posting cute little fairy this to satiate the “navel piercings and butterflies on shoulders” crowd (as Serenity put it)… I’m posting it to see how quickly people can find the hidden message in this tattoo.

either way.. mom/
Do we get to find out ever?!
It’s not “MOM” you’ve got it upside down. It’s “WOW”
Wow, I totally thought it said MOIST up the ruffles of her skirt, not MOM…
My first though was about a vagina too. Then I keep searching for the hidden message and was wondering if the round light above her head could be the glans of a penis, and the wings would be semen falling from it. Then the semen fall in the vagina (flower) and the child is born! A child who also has a vagina (the little flower on her head).
And then people tell me it’s just about “MOM” hidden in her dress. Oh… that’s not really fun.
Well, the story I told talk about a mom too.
(While I was thinking about all this, I was asking myself if searching so much for sexual context was the right way to find the secret. My conclusion was: “Of course. It’s Modblog”)
Shannon are you ever gonna fill us in? we want to know !!! lol
moist! haha
my first thought? Clearly she’s sitting in a vagina flower.
I see ‘mom’ after everyone mentioned it, but all I could see at first was her masturbating with her left hand.
So we are not going to get a confirmation as to there is more than the obvious?
I really want to know.
Sian & Melvin… LOL… your comments are so funny!
For some reason, when I registered the “mom” in the skirt ruffle, I was lead to believe it was a tattoo concerning a miscarriage.
I was watching Miami Ink a year or so ago and saw a lady come in that wanted to have a fairy with delicate bubbles tattooed on her, to represent her grief at the loss of life when she suffered her miscarriage.
So, yeah.
Or perhaps her mother passed away.
Either way, it seems to be a very subtly somber work of art, to me.
