Ask most men whether tattoos on women are sexy or not and you will get a mixture of answers. It is certainly not as easy as getting a yes or no answer. In reality, you are either for tattoos or you are not. If you are, then whether or not they are sexy will depend upon a couple of important factors
First, are they appropriate for the person involved? And second, are they partly hidden and discreet leaving something for the imagination? Research done on this topic indicates that most men are more likely to be turned on by an elegant, well placed tattoo rather than an endless display of "body" art where it is hard to see any untouched skin at all. A perfect example of this is seeing someone as elegant as Angelina Jolie and the tasteful and sexy way she has gone about the process of being tattooed
