Are all back tattoos on women tramp stamps or just the ones that go across the back that look like wings or tribal etc. My wife has a fairy on her back and her friend said that's a tramp stamp. I say it isn't. We have a bet on this one.
Answer
Well, it depends on who you ask. I'm a tattoo artist, and we refer to them in the business as lower back tattoos. The only time you may hear it, (at least around my shop) is when some girl, (looking like she's been missing out on soap and water for a week) comes in to price one, and when she finds out what tattoos cost, heads out the door. Now, that phrase is derogatory toward women in general, and was likely coined by some narrow-minded geek, who wasn't getting any. So, he came up with the term, out of nothing more than lust, jealousy of her boyfriend, and good old fashioned self-righteous indignation. Too bad popular opinion, among the ill educated, swings the other way. Also, good lower back tattoos are conformed to the lines of the body, particularly across the top of the hips. they can cut it low, so it can be hidden with regular jeans, but still show it off in the bedroom, or on the beach. To me, that in itself shows a dignified attitude about placement. NOT to be confused with a 'bulls-eye' as that is put on for different motives, and a whole different subject. The fairy is a fairy tattoo, that also happens to be a lower back tattoo. Calling it a 'tramp stamp' is ridiculous. That's my two cents.

What is the story behind your tattoo? What are the general reactions you get when you display it/them?

also, how did you choose the location of your tattoo? do you think there's a particular location or particular tattoos 'unsuitable' for girls/boys?
Answer
story: i have a music tattoo and i came up with the design myself. i had the idea since i was 16 but never really put it down on paper and then around the time i was 18 i started designing it in photoshop and it took me 3 days to get it exactly how i wanted it. at first i wanted the phrase around it to be in italian (language that music is written in i.e. forte pianissimo) but when i checked different online translators and asked my sister in law (who knows italian but it's not her first language, greek is) i got different answers. so my first 2 days of designing had gone down the drain. so on the 3rd day i got it done, knew i liked it and took it to the shop to see how much it would be. they told me because of the lettering that it would have to be a bit bigger than what i wanted it but i still love it.
Reactions: everyone that saw it, loved it, except for my parents. they're not too big on tattoos and when i first showed them it was right after i got it done. so it didn't look very pretty at the time because it was swollen and red. after a while my step mom said that it was starting to grown on her and looked better now that it was healed up.
Location: i chose my shoulder because 1) i liked how it looked 2) it's easy to hide and show off
Location pt2: there aren't really any spots that i would consider unsuitable. mostly on girls i don't like tattoos on the calf or front of the thigh or really the bakc of the thigh unless it's continuous from a back tattoo. guys should just try and get it anyplace where they don't have a lot of hair lol.
