body art

i'm still contemplating a new tattoo. i got a suggestion from someone (their first and middle name on my neck) and i was near tears laughing. i am not one to get a man's name on my body. not that i have anything against those who do. it's your body to do as you please. i don't see that as a way to prove your love for someone and it definitely doesn't mean you'll be with that person forever. i've had guys with girls names tattooed on their neck, arms, whatever still try to come at me. or there are guys who tell me about how they were doing the do with chicks who had some guy's name tramp stamped on their back. so you're hittin it from the back and she's screaming out your name while you're reading another guy's name on her back. how do you continue? do you put a towel over the art or what? i'm going to get something with a meaning behind it. i'm thinking of going with the breast cancer ribbon in honor of my Mother. i still want my footprint design. may not get it where i initially planned. who knows?
