For the first fifty or sixty years after tattooing became commonplace and even mainstream in modern society, few women got in tattoos – in fact, those that did were the exception and usually a touch eccentric or rebellious.
All that changed about twenty years ago when in tattooing became more socially acceptable, largely due to the many celebrities who publicly sported in tattoos. Some of these were women, and so the female in tattoo became more common and acceptable. Nowadays most people find female in tattoos sexy and attractive, they certainly aren’t offensive anymore.
However, female ink is no longer shocking, and we no longer jump to conclusions about a woman’s moral character based on whether or not she has a few in tattoos!
Small Female in tattoos
Many women are physically smaller and more delicately built than men and in general, we consider smaller, more delicate things more feminine. That’s why in tattoos for women are generally smaller and prettier than male in tattoos.Feminine in tattoos
Woman with a full sleeve in tattoo
It is rare, though not unheard of, for a woman to have a full sleeve in tattoo that covers much of her arm., but usually feminine in tattoos are more likely to be isolated in one or two areas of the body – as accent pieces, so to speak.
Women’s in tattoo designs are also less heavy, less aggressive looking compared to men’s in tattoos. They tend to have thinner lines, though this is, of course, a generalization rather than a rule.
