I just got a pretty large tattoo on my back of a rose - the stem with some leaves and flowers go into a lower back tattoo. It's really gorgeous. My rose tattoo that used to "grow" out of my bikini is somewhat wilted, but the truth is I don't care. My tattoos are hidden. Some people do tend to stereotype you when they see tattoos. It's just human nature, so I only show them when I want them to be seen.
I love them both, even the wilted rose on my tummy. They are who I am, and I like using my body as a way to express who I am (no pole dancing or anything like that) but with clothing, jewelry, the way I wear my hair, etc. I have a lot of fun with it, and I just turned 60.
By the way, tattoos hurt like h*ll!
