Classy or Trashy?


I was over talking with my brother and sister-in-law when all of a sudden my SIL starts laughing with excitement, "Shelle, you have to write a letter on your blog about this girl I saw at the store the other day!"

But when she told me what she SAW...I wanted to bring you guys in on the discussion. So here we go.

My SIL says that those tattoo's stretched out along a girls lower back is a "Tramp Stamp" or something like that...the details are escaping me because I only had two hours of sleep last night...I think it's funny...and I laugh everytime she says it! (I don't feel at ALL that all women with their lower backs tattoo are tramps...if I'm completely honest, some of them are very cute and look good...just letting you know)...but for this story I feel the name Tramp Stamp is appropriate!

Don't get me wrong...I think some tattoo's have artistic beauty. I can appreciate it, and them.

Me? I'll never get one...because I hate pain...and my body is my temple and all of that.

But I guess she was walking along, minding her precious newly-mother business when she see's a Tramp Stamp on this girls back that reads...and let me bold it so that you don't miss it...it reads: "Doggie Style".

Great! Now I'm going to get a bunch of pervie's googling that phrase and finding my site...HEY...YOU'RE NOT WELCOME!

Anyway, going on!

WTFH??? (What The Freakin' Heck). Is she kidding? Temporary Tattoo for Halloween to get a rise out of people such as myself and my SIL?

If I were to have written a letter I would have made fun of it and pretty much been sarcastic about it the whole time...it would have gone something like this:

Dear Trailer-Trash Lady with the Tramp Stamp:

My SIL walking through the store today saw your precious love for DOGS. But I'm afraid that the tattoo artist did your sweet, humble, and caring message the wrong way...because what it looks like is that you are advertising your favorite...

your favorite...

well position.

YECK!

That wasn't your intention at all? I know you were just trying to be witty and share your love about "Mans Best Friend" by putting a hip phrase on the lower part of your back for everyone to see when you bend over, wear short shirts, or low jeans...I know that, but everyone else might not.

Even trying to defend you and make you understand in this letter puts up a lot of innuendo's! Oh well...

Your stand to show your permanent love for dogs...0r those resembling dogs...has gone astray, no pun intended.

Love Shelle.

That is how I would have written it...knowing full well why she put the tattoo on her back and what the REAL meaning of it is.

But what I really want to say is--that is just TRASHY! Why advertise something like that? I mean, it was done to get attention obviously...but there are a lot better ways, and not as permanent, to obtain attention.

I mean...what if she gets sick of that style? She has just taken her choice in the matter out of the equation...

HHHmmmm...

So what do you think? Would you call that particular tattoo Trashy or Classy?

Shelle

P.S. Just to warn you ahead of time...if you say Classy in this case then I must ban you from my list of intelligent people...

If you laugh and say you don't mind...that's okay...I understand that, I'm one with laughter and throwing opinion away with the wind! :)
