o tempora, o mores!

Whilst perusing the perverted wonderland that is J-List for more innocent things–like Hello Kitty stuff for my little sister [and no, not the goddamn Hello Kitty Personal Massager]–and little bento boxes when I stumbled across one of their tattoo books. One of the pictures they had scanned in as a little taste of what the book had to offer was a young lady with an orange-and-black crane tattooed along her ribs on the left side of her body. Fascinated, I clickied for a larger version.

I think that is an absolutely beautiful tattoo, and I would really love to have an imitation of it. Upon showing Jeremy, he points out that her skin is a little raised where the ink is..but oh well. [Facetiously, he points out that it's strategically placed to uh...enhance her assets.] To me, it appears relatively new–you can still see that her skin is reddened around the edges.

It is a rather large tat, but it would be hidden by most tops, so anyone who would probably be offended by a tattoo probably wouldn’t be.
–and how can something that pretty be offensive? :3

edit: fixed. Originally, the picture showed for me, but upon glancing back, I saw that it wasn’t, anymore.
