although I completely agree that the tattoo issue is a privacy issue for the ladies it is also a preference issue for us guys.  Completely agree that a woman should cover or air brush out tattoo's she thinks would identify her. But that can be misleading to the guys too. I for one am not a huge tattoo fan. I prefer few if any, but I don't at all mind a small tattoo or two in various places on a woman. Some locations are a turn on... some a huge turn off. For example I think small tattoo's inside the bikini line can be sexy as hell, where ones on the tummy and around the navel or on or around her breasts are a complete boner killer for me. I have seen one or two ladies with a huge very artsy tattoo that covered her entire back that I thought was super sexy. Others that are hot as hell that have a ton of ink. Placement and content is everything and it's subjective. I respect the reasons to brush em out but actually prefer a few pics I have seen that have them either blurred or blacked out with a small symbol or better yet cover them with something while shooting the pics. Then we can tell she has them and how big and where they are but what they are of is not displayed to compromise identity. I'm sure some run into situations where they think a lady has none because they are brushed out so well (or the pics are from before the tat) and when they see her they are disappointed. The womans feeling of security & preference trumps our preferences imo but it would be nice if more ladies just covered them with something instead of brushing them out.
