Getting a tattoo because of / for swinging?
Jump to: Newest in thread
Random musing...
Is it wrong to feel like one should get a tattoo to elevate oneself in the rankings of men in the swinging world?
I'm "Mr Average" I guess, and thinking / wondering if a tattoo might help me get from a C to a C+ / B-?
The question then is, what to get, and where to get it?
I know it's possibly the wrong motivation, but even though we're a hotwife couple, I've only managed to "swing" once in the last couple of years lol, I wouldn't mind giving it a whirl and seeing the attention tattoos get, I wonder if this might help?
Is it really that easy a "Get out of jail / get in to fun" card?

Personally I'd hope it was the person and not their body modifications most people were interested in - I'd certainly not consider a tattoo, or changing anything else about me for that matter, in the hope it would increase my chances of a meet.
See just as many profiles that say they find tattoos a turn off than see them as a turn on, so can't see a tattoo would necessarily have the desired effect. |

Personally, a tattoo would be unlikely to be the make or break for whether I wanted to fuck someone. If you want a tattoo, get one. If that’s your sole motivation for body modification then I’d consider the “what if” first, what if it doesn’t get you anymore luck than now? If you won’t regret getting it and no improvement then fine, if not - don’t get one.

In all honesty though have a think about what you’d like in terms of style etc.
Most people will tell you a tiny tattoo that took 15mins needs a 10 hour long back story to it.
The majority of mine are there because I thought they looked cool.
I turn up to the shop, tell the guy what ideas I’ve got, he draws on me with a sharpie pen and then tattoos over it. |

I guess my perception is that there's a lot that are just DTF (down to fuck).
I'm not going to be Mr 6 Pack...
And we are pretty much exclusively club goers, we don't get chance for socials...

Perhaps it's something else ! LOL.
Perhaps it's because I am ginger

Indeed, probably the reason I haven't had one yet despite just about every friend / person I know having one, is that I have no idea what to get...
But I guess perhaps it gets that attention?
And indeed, as long as I got the right tattoo for me, and it netted me no more interest, I've not lost anything.
Only if I got the wrong tattoo would I be at a net loss...
I think it's the last few times we've been out it's got me pondering!

Depends what you are looking for and how you are going about it I guess - will always be harder for the male half of a couple when it comes to finding solo meets, but not completely impossible
Definitely don't think a tattoo is the answer though.
Am in a similar situation to yourself, feel free to message me if you want to discuss off forum  |

A tattoo would never be a deciding factor in whether I fancy someone or not.
Also...speaking as a future tattoo artist and someone with a fair amount of ink myself...only get a tattoo if you really want one and only get what you really want! Or you WILL regret it and tattoo removal is much more expensive and painful than the tattoo itself. |

Since I started getting tattooed where people can see I've had as many people say they're not fans of tattoos as people who are into them.
Luckily the girls I tend to be into are usually tattooed so it works out.
For you though man, for people who find tattoos specifically attractive I think they'd want a little more than a tiny thing on a shoulder. Go big or go home and for you I'd recommend not getting them done if that's your motivation. |

You should get a tattoo because you want a tattoo not because you want to blend in here - people without tattoos are becoming a rarity and therefore unadorned skin will stand out.... I am fairly heavily tattooed but I was already that before I even became a swinger  |

We're a stag and vixen couple and contemplating getting little tattoos to reflect that

Shaving your head would be cheaper and less painful than a tattoo. 
What kind of designs do you like? |

"d be cheaper and less painful than a tattoo.

For head shaving? A crew cut
LOL
For ink... I know what I don't like.
But for the do like... American Traditional, black work / fine line, and some water colour...
Japanese looks great, but again, not sure what it would do for ginger skin!

Ginger skin nice and pale will suit any colour or blacks and greys.
You could get a cheap stick man tatt then apply for Tattoo Fixers to get a really cool one to cover it. |

"Tattoos are permanent, and personal to you. Get a good tattooist as well.
Trust me, I would be researching the $hit out of the artist.
I've got Louis Molloy on my hit list "
I don’t think Louis malloys work is actually that good, tattoo artists that can do his work are common.
Check out an artist called polish dan, his work is fantastic. |

Are these celebrity tattooists? My local tattoo dude is (in my opinion) better as the big name in Manchester City center.
I’m booked in next week for my big tat, and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Tattoos are personal, and the person sticking needles in you is your choice, and shouldn’t be made by someone else. No?
Do your research op like you said |

Literally just like Howard from the big bang theory when he went to get a tattoo as he thought it would get him laid with the goth chick, that whole scene was a big joke because of how ridiculous it is, this also is a big joke because of how ridiculous it is. |

Well, I've seen Louis' work up close for some big art. And it wow'd me.
Also helps, not being a woman, so wouldn't get "sleazed" on LOL.
But yeah, it's Middleton for his studio.
But yeah, hey ho, I guess it is back to the inkless drawing board, and to figure out what I am doing wrong otherwise
Might be cheaper to try and get a 6 pack and get results that way instead LOL.

Guess I've seen Louis' work up close, and it was pretty fricking good.
There are certainly some artists on Ink Master I'd love to see (except for being in the USA...)
But yeah, we'll see what the craic is, but it's looking like the skin shall remain un inked and I'll be happy with my wife

I got a tattoo on my upper arm a few years ago, to dip my toes in the water so to speak.
I am now looking for a tattoo on my back, seen a lovely one that will go from shoulder blade to shoulder blade and best way down my back. |

FUCK OFF!! My husband is NOT a C! You are A* to anyone who has a clue.
A tattoo won't help you swing more. What will help is you having more confidence and learning to notice when someone is coming on to you.
FFS... if I'd left it up to you to take the initiative we'd never have got past a drink!
Now stop being a dick! (Love you)

"Please don’t get tattooed solely to appear “cooler”...  "
Get a full body piece that looks like a shirt. On a hot day you can walk around topless, thereby immediately being 'cooler'. |

a tattoo is a bit permanent and drastic to be honest, great if you want one, but not just to swing. my little cuck wears his cock cage or a leather collar with cuck written on which makes him stand out in the crowd, as people always ask questions and come over to him. |

I totally missed what this would be about.
I was going to say I have a Chameleons tattoo on my butt as a permanent reminder of where I first dabbled and had so much fun. |

Cheers for the inputs...
Indeed, I shall remain inkless and plod on lol.
(As indeed, I've been wracking my brains on what to get, and given I can't think of something that calls out to me, and not rocking my skin, it would be ink of regret).
So... Onward... and dietward lol!
