Not that I need anyone’s approval for putting a tattoo on my body, but I’m just wondering about…?

how will it be perceived if I put an Elvis Presley image tattoo on one of my arms. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m straight as an arrow but I just happen to be a HUGE fan of Presley. What do you think?

I’m glad to know that you’re looking at the tattoo from the "what I want" perspective…’cause honestly, what we think should have little influence on your choice.

I think that most people would see it and say, "Oh, the King! Nice! He must be a big Elvis fan!". Just be sure to hire a good artist who specializes in portrait work.

    Its all down to personal preference at the end of the day but it would possibly make you look slightly homosexual and/or one of them nuts who obsess over famous people.

    BUT they can also look really nice :)

    As long as you don’t like .. draw hearts and stuff. A nice picture of Elvis wouldn’t be gay or anything! Just make sure it’s nice

    Just think long and hard about it. If you look at it in 10 years will you still be happy you got it? I had one that I was not happy about a few years after, got it covered but now I’m not happy with the cover up. It’s pretty but it’s HUGE. So just think and do what makes you happy. Happy tattooing :-)
