Tattoos

[guru68]

I'm a firm believer that a good escort knows how to be out in public with his client without making it look absolutely ridiculous.

Ridiculous as in "obviously an escort"?

I'm in the category of often having the "why would such a beautiful man get so much ink) reaction, but it's just my taste. The various reasons a person might get a tattoo are interesting, but I hope I never judge anyone for it whether or not I find it attractive. No doubt the guys in question will be just fine without my interest. ?

 

In practical terms, I do wonder about people who have ink in areas which can't be covered easily - hands, face, neck, etc. Is there an ink closet in the workplace? Employers so often make appearance-based judgements.

Perhaps the word 'absolutely unnatural' would have been better served.

 

Body language, demeanor, conversation style, image: They all work together in either making a couple of guys look like years-long friends or two guys who were just thrown together because it's a block of paid time.

Yes, that is a better way of putting it - though I do know what you mean. I think a lot of people underestimate the value of social skills, in general.

If a guy his hot as fuck then so are his tats. If a guy is ugly as fuck.... well.... you get the idea.

In the 1960's & 70's men wearing their hair longer distressed some elements of society. Tastes change.

 

I much prefer the look of Jim Bentley, Kurt Marshall and Jeff Quinn in the porn of the 80's than today's popular models. So what? As is the case with popular music and movies, I recognize that my demographic group isn't driving the market. I have no interest in getting a tattoo but have had way too much fun with tattooed guys to turn away from them.

In Australia I get the impression, not based on any quantifiable evidence, that tattoos are losing favour. I could be wrong. What is the situation in the US?
