I remember when I got my tramp stamp, the tattoo artist was this really cool woman with tons of tattoos herself. I was lying there on my stomach, feeling so nervous and exposed, and I just had to ask her. I tried to sound casual, but my voice was a little shaky when I said, "So... has a man ever come in here asking for one of these before?" She just shook her head. "No, honey," she said, not even looking up from her work. "Never once. Think about it. This is a lower back tattoo. It's for girls who want to look sexy in low-rise jeans or a thong. It’s an invitation, pure and simple. Every guy who sees one knows exactly what it means. A straight man would never want that on his body; it would completely undermine his masculinity. It's the most feminine tattoo you can get."
