![[image loading]](http://img177.imageshack.us/i/2638378450fb962dde37m.jpg/) I am a guy and I am asian, to me I dont't really see any asians with tattoo( don't get me wrong, I am not getting it because I don't see other asians with tattoo), this is not gangster in anyway, just want to show who I am, my patriotic spirit, simple, straight forward, no bullshit, my dad will probably be pissed about it.... what can I say Poll: Tattoo? (Vote): Yes (Vote): No (Vote): Something else (Vote): Other, please explain.  | ||

This will just make you look like you just went to a theme park and put your stamp in a weird place. | ||

However, HomieZ, if those things are important to you, you should think carefully about it. | ||

You shouldn't get a tattoo just for the sake of getting a tattoo... This will just make you look like you just went to a theme park and put your stamp in a weird place. I know what it is that I want, I am just not sure If I should get it, you know once I get it done, there is no going back. Like you said, it kinda looks like I forgot to erase it after a visit from theme park. | ||

Have a friend paint it with some kind of good paint and see how it feels like... I don't want it too big, then it messes up its look and draws too much attention. It is not suppose to grab people attention like: " hey look, I got giant maple leaf on my arm". It is for myself, I don't really care if other people see it or not. | ||

This is bad reasoning man no matter how you slice it. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt though. Girls usually get small tattoos on their ankle and the Canadian Flag thing gets redundant. Sure you want to show your red and white, who doesn't? To me it looks girlie. | ||

By all means, if you do have a good personal reason, do it. But don't just get it cause you were born in Canada. So is everyone else you talk to. | ||

Human bodies are already beautiful, I dont see the point of putting ink into your skin  If you arent sure if you'll regret it or not you probably will. | ||

"Cool, did you do anything internationally for Canada" "oh, no, I just wanted it." I guess if you're lucky she'll have one too, since it's the most popular non-descript tattoo in Canada... But if you really wanna show your patriotism, why are you hiding it under your sock all the time except when you're at the beach. By all means, if you do have a good personal reason, do it. But don't just get it cause you were born in Canada. So is everyone else you talk to. wasn't born, came here. | ||

I suggest getting a bigger maple leaf if that is what you have your heart set on. Let there be good detail on it, and let it take longer than 5 minutes to get done so it has some more meaning to you. Just my 2 cents! | ||

Even though you say you aren't getting it to be gangster, many Asian's I know would think it is. What I'm trying to say is, if you live in an Asian community, or plan to marry an Asian girl, good luck getting their parents to like you. | ||

Thus, unless you want all you Asian friends/parents (moreso parents) to think you are a gangster, I'd stay away. Even though you say you aren't getting it to be gangster, many Asian's I know would think it is. What I'm trying to say is, if you live in an Asian community, or plan to marry an Asian girl, good luck getting their parents to like you. I don't think they are gonna assume he is in some asian gang because he has a tiny tattoo of the maple leaf on his ankle. Don't you think thats a bit extreme? I'd hate to hang out with people that assume part of the canadian flag is a gang sign lol. My borther dates an asian girl (were white) and she has a traditional asian family, but they don't seem to mind that half his torso is tattooed (giant angel wing). As for the OP, if you are going to get ink done, it's best to get it somewhat bigger, and to put a bit more thought into it. I mean, you are permenantly coloring that portion of your body, you should at least make it worth the experience. | ||

-Dont get a tattoo that only might only like for a period of time ("Fad Tattoo") -Dont get a tattoo if you're black (because your skin color will make the ink of tattoo look blue and it looks stupid and barely visible) | ||

Wait, if you're chinese you should get a tattoo in Chinese that says "white people can't read this"... man, that'd be too sick. | ||

this isnt to seem gangster or anything i suggest you wait for awhile, before you either turn "gangster" enough to tattoo something decent or reevaluate yourself before its too late and go with a pink heart on your lower back | ||

![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/tattoopiced.JPG) Probably not the smartest thing ever, but the location is not visible unless I'm naked. I suggest the high leg or back/chest. Anything on the lower arms is basically asking for trouble. | ||

imo tattoos are pretty badass but not many people that ive come by have nice ones.. i think the only actual cool ones are on real gangsters and people from prison.. in any case if you are to go through with it i am 100% sure that the ankle is for chicks.. and i think a cool tatoo has a story behind it | ||
