To tattoo or not to tattoo


Did you know Barry Goldwater had a tattoo? So did Teddy Roosevelt and his daughter Alice. There's a whole slew or royals that were inked too, like Queen Victoria, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and Princess Stefanie of Monaco—Prince Charles is even rumored to have a tattoo from his Navy days. This weekend I was having dinner with two friends and we wondered if a tattoo is so commonplace now that it's more punk not to have one. What do you think? Chew it over with the below photos of celebs and let me know. Above: Lindsay Lohan's finger tat.

It is more punk to have tattoos, only under some circumstances is it not. This topic is straight out of SLC Punk or something.
