I am the goddamn Batman


Another reader submission, from Zombiefart (?!), at Inkside Tattoos in El Paso TX.

I'm crazy for it!




Ryan sent in the above Batman tattoos, done by Tilo in Clannad Tattoo Studios in Heidenheim Germany.

Heart And Love Tattoos


The heart is the symbol used mostly to express love but there are variations of this theme as well... a heart with an arrow through it signifies being "lovestruck", a broken heart is "love lost", and a flaming heart can symbolize "passion".







How many Jokers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Wouldn't know. They're to busy loosening BATMAN'S SCREWS!


Katy submitted the Joker above, inspired by the Animated Series. The design was by Charles Holbert Jr, the ink by Elf at Immortal Images in Charlotte, NC.

Feminine Tattoos

Feminine tattoos run the gamut from small flowers to large designs, and this feminine tattoos gallery shows the range. If you're trying to decide on your own feminine tat design, use these images to jumpstart your creativity, but be sure to add your own personal touch.

Female tattoos – or tattoos that are feminine in design, and are usually favored by women or girls – are becoming more and more common.

For the first fifty or sixty years after tattooing became commonplace and even mainstream in modern society, few women got tattoos – in fact, those that did were the exception and usually a touch eccentric or rebellious.

All that changed about twenty years ago when tattooing became more socially acceptable, largely due to the many celebrities who publicly sported tattoos. Some of these were women, and so the female tattoo became more common and acceptable. Nowadays most people find female tattoos sexy and attractive, they certainly aren't offensive anymore.

Tattoos for women

That having been said it’s still true that more men than women get tattoos and it’s even true that there is a little element of social rebellion inherent in a woman’s decision to get a tattoo, although this is less and less the case, tattoos are more like a fashion item these days.

However, female ink is no longer shocking, and we no longer jump to conclusions about a woman’s moral character based on whether or not she has a few tattoos!










Bat-knot
