Let me guess who was polled: frat boys who are so drunk need visual images to tell who's wild or not. Boys, if they're hanging out in your bar, they're sluts.

To call it pain isn't exactly accurate, far as I'm concerned, because pain is something one's body instinctively avoids. I like the sensation of being tattooed and, in fact, would be more than happy to act as a scratchboard, as it were, for an artist if not for the fact that I'm not interested in committing to the art and I scar easily. (I do have two tattoos presently.) However, I'm also a certain sort of masochist, so there you go.

Staying at the Ritz Carlton in D. recently, coming in just before sundown, I witnessed two stunning(that is, fashion-model), yet older (say, about 30) women of Nordic appearance exiting, dressed v. provocatively, get into a limo sent for them, quickly joined by very serious older, traditional sheiks. As they passed, I noted identical tats that were discrete, abstract logos, in the same spot on their shoulders. Marks of the int'l booty trade? Property of.

I've got two tats. I didn't enjoy the pain, but it was mildly annoying at worst. I've definitely had worse pain from a paper cut or stubbing my toe. I have chronic medical problems and sometimes feel like my body is out of my control, so it's my way of saying to my body "I still own you."

Pain hurts. I take less seriously anyone who tattoos himself or herself. The more ink, the more ridiculous they look. It's like going out wearing a dunce cap.
