Chinese lower back tattoos
Chinese characters make great lower back tattoos
but do you know how long have they been popular and why?
| Way
back in the nineteen nineties, lower back tattoos stated
to become very fashionable forms of 'skin art' for younger
ladies.
Lower
back tattoos are usually rectangular and symmetrical with
the design following the curves on each side of the lady's
back bone.
I
was thinking the other day and I don't actually know any
men who have a lower back tattoo.
|
|
As far as I know they are exclusively worn by women. With the
fashion for low cut jeans there is no question that they can
make ladies look incredibly attractive. I love them.
Due
to the feminine nature of lower back tattoos, the designs are
deliberately created to highlight the sexy curves of ladies
figures.
Lower
back tattoos have really only been popular for about 10 years
and some people still feel uncomfortable about them as they
think they are too cheeky. I can understand this as by displaying
tattoos low on the back just above where the buttock crease
starts they are much more overtly sexual in statement than other
parts of the body. In China were society is stuff much stricter
than in the west, they are very rarely seen. Certainly many
parents would be shocked if their daughter would to come home
with a lower back tattoo. In a way I find this ironic given
that some chinese tribes still sport tribal
tattoos on their face!
| Fans
of lower back tattoos often feel that by showing their body
art openly and (sometimes) provocatively the are demonstrating
their independence and new-found sexual assertiveness. Some
people think that tattoos in this position on a woman's
body is 'cheap' or displays traits of 'being low class'
or even shows that they might be a prostitutes. These are
extreme views held by minorities and I think as time goes
by people will consider them as more normal or mainstream. |

Very
sexy lower back tattoo

So why are lower back tattoos so popular?
| |
I
think there are a number of reasons why lower back tattoos
are so incredibly popular.
Even
though the lower back is far from being the widest area
of the human back (after all, if it was we'd have no hips
or bottom!) there is plenty of room on a relatively flat
surface to a good sized tattoo.
Also, because the muscles of the lower back are strong
and the spine does not flex much towards its however extremity,
there is a much less chance that the tattoo design will
stretch as the women gets older or her weight changes
- be that withy pregnancy or just 'life".

One
of my fiends is a 'secret biker'. During the week she can hide
her lower back tattoo under her business suit. At the weekends
the cropped jeans come out and she's a rock chick with a tattoo.
Her boss doesn't even know :)
