Thanks for your thoughts so far. Yes... ink in general is a very personal thing.
The person that made the remark is very into the opinions of others on her looks. Like, wearing a bike helmet would look dumb and mess my hair up thinking. I think she sees them as "rough & tough" and cycling as a tough endurance sport. So... therefore are we rough & tough? Thus, we get tats in her eyes? I dunno lol.
In terms of vanity, I would choose my passion of cycling (and safety like my helmet) anyday.
I do agree too that I have seen tats on some other models lately too, besides the cycling ones. Maybe overall ink is become more mainstream, accepted... and that of showing ones individuality.
