Girls with Tattoos, “Classy” or “Trashy”?
Girls with tattoos get a bad rap these days. They are associated with “don’t mess with me” bad ass chicks, trashy/skanky girls, and hippie-love-child wannabes. But I want a tattoo and I am none of those things.
I’ve been thinking long and hard about permanently tagging myself, but I can’t seem to commit to it. There is so much to consider, tattoos being permanent and all, and the last thing I want is to regret my decision. Or end up with 56 stars on my face.
On the one hand, I agree with Angelina Jolie when she said, “A tattoo is something permanent when you’ve made a self-discovery, or something you’ve come to a conclusion about…and a strong reminder to live fully in the moment.” At the same time, though, I also agree with my friend’s brother who said, “Imagine getting scrunch socks tattooed on your legs in the early 90’s.

Finley also invites young Black women to register at the student rate for the annual leadership conference (www.leagueofblackwomen.org).
“Make time for your enrichment and your own growth. Then, you can be more concerned about getting yourself into an organization that can provide an excellent environment in which to grow.”
