I've always been overweight, chubby or fat.
I have both arms covered and quite a bit of each leg tattooed - I love my tattoos. And beautiful tattoos look great on any size body!
From a personal standpoint, it is simply my vanity and insecurity that has kept me from getting my back, buttocks and ribs tattooed-- and that is because I wouldn't be comfortable naked in front of most people. My husband ( who is a tattooer will most probably be the one to tattoo my back and sides)
As a tattooer, I like big people with big tattoos and small people with big tattoos too>
Best of luck

I recently apologized for my inactivity here.
I still enjoy looking through and reading new posts - but haven 't contributed or posted as much as I used to--- I don't know if it's because I'm old or just an old tattooer --- but I felt like many of my responses lacked empathy and came off impatient or preachy.
Sorry, i'll try harder

Stewart, often I think to comment on a post- and then you do, so articulately, that I just feel like writing "ditto"

I have a photo of that at my station that Mike sent to me when he got it. It's one of my favorites.
