There seems to be a fashion for women having super butch tattoo's these days, I figure it's because she doesn't want somebody with less butch tattoo's which would therefor make her feel unfeminine.

Also there's the tough guy connotations, I think mostly they want men who look manly but aren't at all. I have met plently of guys who are pure woman-bait - tattoo's, lumberjack shirts, full on sailor beard, can't even put up a shelf or wire a freaking plug and are generally whipped to the Nth degree, full on roped, gelded and saddled!

I've heard the tattoo thing explained from an evolutionary standpoint - having tattoos means you have a pain threshold and strong immune system to tolerate having one.

It is a kind of a brag. I read that desperate teenagers who got nothing going for them cut themselves for the same purpose - a last ditch attempt to prove that their body and immune system can handle that.

Apparently this kind of stuff is wired into human psyche from times when getting a tribal tattoo had real risks of infection and was probably done with a sharpened bone and such.
