and she just got a huge one on her thigh. her mom is currently on a meth bender but growing up with that sort of influence she avoids hard drugs.

I guess I actually know several dudes with neck tats that are maybe weed heads at best, but they're all artists, musicians or bartenders.

12820626, 60% of women in rust belt cities have neck tattoos
Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Jun-03-15 08:05 AM
and half of them aren't addicted to anything but bad fashion and ratchet accessories

prolly the same for dudes but I don't care to look or remember.

I bet this poll was made with white men as the case study.

Chicks get hand and neck tats like it's fashionable now.

20 years ago, it meant something sinister, not so much now.

The most tatted up people I know are all relatively clean, but there's whole subcultures based around being EXTRA clean that go hand in hand with tats.

grew up on a farm

got all types a sleeve action on her arms n chest n legs

said she straightedge

I ain't even know shit was a culture she kinda put me on

12821542, a couple of NetSec cats I worked with had sleeves done
Posted by PoppaGeorge, Wed Jun-03-15 03:33 PM
one had a dragon on his chest where the tail started at his neck.

when I worked in defense we had one older (60-ish) white chick with hand tats and a gigantic Phoenix on her back with the head on the back of her neck.

with the depth of the background and drug checks we all went through (hair tests instead of piss) it's pretty safe to say there were no serious criminal or drug offenses with any of them.

12821580, maybe you missed it, but they had tats on their necks
Posted by PoppaGeorge, Wed Jun-03-15 03:53 PM
the one on the chick's back had the bird's head on the back of her neck as well as hand tats.

the tail of dude's dragon tat on his chest started on his neck.

Posted by SuiteLady, Wed Jun-03-15 08:43 PM
first time I saw someone in management with visible tats. I thought it was just this part of the country because I never saw educated, professionals with visible tattoos when I lived on the west coast.

She is from U City so I voted red... I'm not really sure :(
