Im a very girly girl. I love pink and zebra! thats my favorite theme. I like hearts, stars, butterflies, bows, keys and such, it needs to like be quite wide, preferably with like a main focal point and smaller versions of the focal point in different areas, i like curly little lines coming off of the main focal point as well, so either find me a tattoo or draw me one and and send a link! thanks everybody! also its going either across my shoulder blades or on my lower back.
The hearts cute, but too plain, i want more of wow factor.

Why do you want or why did you get tattoos?

Why did you get your tattoos? Or why do you want tattoos?
A guy on here asked where he should get a quote tattood on him, and girls kept responding with which places would be "hot" and what tattoos would be "sexier". I was taken back, people really get tattoos purely because it looks hot? Everyone I knew with them had deeper reasons behind their ink, I have a meaning behind every one of mine. So I was just curious, what are some reasons you or other people you know get ink?
Answer
A lot of people get tattoos because they have deep meaning to them, but I don't think that's necessarily a requirement. I have about thirty hours worth of tattoos on my body thus far: some of them I got with deep consideration (a portrait of my grandmother, a bolex camera & quote representing my cousin's and my shared love of the musical RENT) and others I got within 15 minutes of looking at a design (many, many Friday the 13th flash days that included matching pink elephants and Twin Peaks tattoos).
I don't get tattooed because they're deeply meaningful, though some of them are. I get tattooed because I find them aesthetically pleasing and because I like having a visual "map" of my life. To me, tattoos tell a story of where I was at a given moment. Sometimes the meanings changed over time or the tattoos ended up growing into their meaning (I got a blue dragonfly tattoo while in eating disorder treatment only to learn that blue dragonfly was a pro-anorexia message board...whoops), but it's more about, "That pink elephant was the tattoo I got with my roommate on the Friday the 13th that I graduated from college, and the line was so long that I showed up late to my own graduation ceremony" than "Cherry blossoms represent spiritual beauty and I'm coming into my own spiritual awakening" kind of thing for me (though I have a few of those tattoos, too).
Some people get tattoos because they think they look hot. Fun fact: they some times do. When you're old, they'll probably look less hot because most of us look less hot when we're old, but even then those people can look at their tattoo and go, "Remember when I got this tattoo because I thought it looked hella sexy? I sure was hella sexy." I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Same goes for people who get tattooed because it's a right of passage or because they're 'really into Batman, man.' (Though I beg anyone who gets a tattoo to go to a good artist and get a good tattoo, regardless of what it is.) We're all going to have to live with our tattoos--be they silly tattoos we just got for kicks or ones we thought would mean the same thing forever. A lot of times even the deeply meaningful ones don't mean the same thing to us ten years down the line, so the key is getting something you won't mind looking at for the rest of your life and being okay with whatever memory comes attached.
