Tattoos Hit the C-Suite: 10 Tips for CEOs

Guys in the manosphere space frequently exchange tips about women, one such “tip” is women who get a ton of ink (as in tattooed) are sluts.

From my personal experience, I do see an exponential rise in the number of tattooed young women. Tattoos are more popular with millennial women (those 28 years and younger) than they were with the previous generations, the Y-ers or the X-ers.

It seems tattoos are not for young women only. The Wall Street Journal had a weekend article today, Tattoos Hit the C-Suite by Brennan Kilbane. We learn male CEOs in their 40s and 50s are also getting inked.

“Tattoos are becoming another way to try to figure out who you are, said Scott Campbell, an artist known for working on celebrities like Justin Theroux. Not that your tattoo need announce your identity explicitly: CEO of Twitter and Square Jack Dorsey, 41, told the New Yorker magazine that his large S-shape forearm tattoo symbolizes the form of the collarbone, the integral symbol in calculus and the violin’s f-hole.”

Important when it comes to tattoos :

1. They should not be visible, i.e. no neck or arm. It’s Ok to get a tattoo on your buttock, but only if your butt is firm.

2. The number of tattoos: is it a small number (as in one or two) or is it a cacophony ?

3. The tattoos should not commemorate a one-night stand or the red-haired devil who stole your heart. Those tattoos are reserved for girls.

4. You can tattoo the company symbol you took public in the IPO, but not the first day opening price.

5. Somebody suggested the yin-yang circle. The real question is: Where are you going to do it ?  Are you going to do it around your belly button ? Do you need navel piercing with that ? Decisions, decisions. Tip from Inkme.tatoo: “The black barbell is always a mysterious style that gives you that badass feeling. The shiny black really stands out, and it will give you that element of mystery“

Quote of the day: “Everyone should consider his body as a priceless gift from one whom he loves above all, a marvelous work of art, of indescribable beauty, and mystery beyond human conception, and so delicate that a word, a breath, a look, nay, a thought may injure it.” -Nikola Tesla

6. A tattoo on your knees means you have knee pain (arthritis).

7. Here’s the reason why millennial women get tattooed so much: pure, unequivocal narcissism. When they’re 50 years old, they’ll be giving tattoo laser removal stores a lot of business.

8. The Pistol

From Inkme.tatoo: “If your personality is a little more badass then why not have a pistol accessory attached to your piercing. The black around the jewel really makes the whole thing pop out.“

9. Now the sixty-four thousand dollar question: “Should my girl get a tattoo with my name ?

The answer is: absolutely. But you should never get a tattoo with her name on it.

10. If you wish to get a tattoo of me, of a powerful pitbull dog, go ahead, knock yourself out. I am releasing my book in the coming days, and the pitbull is on the cover. Stay tuned !
