  Yes. But, it was done when it wasn't that cool (1994), and under a "dare". My hubby dared me to do it after we had a couple of Coronas in Laguna Beach, CA. Needless to say, it's not visible to anyone but him. And I'd never reveal what it is out of respect for him. :-)

  Most of my friend got tattoos of various quality done in their teens and early twenties. Most now conclude that I was right not get them done as they do look more silly as you get older. I worked with lots of older fellas who got tattooed during the war and just after in national service... and of all the things that they had done, most regretted the tattoo that seemed such a good idea at the time.
  I also find most tattoos on women to be a real turn off as well.
  All I seem to accumulate is scars all over my body, and over they years they start to mount up... looking like a patchwork quilt at the moment.
  If I had to have a tattoo, I would opt for an 'all over' one of me but 2 inches taller.

  Cheers,

  K

    Except I read the stars and tattoos as different. Apparently the sneetches are born with or without stars on their bellies. Difference being that tattoos are almost always a matter of choice, and for a variety of reasons, appearing different being major among them.

    As the wiki indicates, the story is more about racism than anything else. One thing tattoos are NOT about is racism (Holocaust aside - a major example of involuntary tattooing and obviously not part of the ornament ethos), being enjoyed by one and all.
