You have seen my pics , so you know that ive got loads of them , do i like them ? no ! do i find them particularly artistic ? no , would i have another done ? no , are they feminine ? no , should a woman have tattoos ? not this one ! i hate them , i regret having them done , and i would never advise anyone else to have them done ( especially if you think you might be trans ) they just make life hard , if i want to go out somewhere nice and the heating is on ( say like a restaurant ) i have to keep a jacket on , ok i have some lovely little light jackets which isnt really a problem , but its just annoying ! , and trying to find a nice dress with sleeves is a major operation ! , i have been turned down for 3 really top jobs in the past because of them ! and now im trying to find a way of getting rid of them , there are some creams which claim to fade them and there is laser surgery but the laser surgery can leave scarring , apparently scientists in Athens have developed a new laser technique called R20 which claims to remove them in half the time so im looking into that , but my personal advice would be , think long and hard before you get a tat done, they may look pretty but consider all the negatives !, i will just add that the tat on the base of the spine can look quite feminine if you choose carefully .
