What are the 2 white hearts? White ink??
What’s the difference between a female firefighter and a firefighter?
I’m sure the two white hearts are from stickers you put on your body when you tan in booths and beds. They are used to track your tanning process.
the answer to number 1 – tan lines, and the answer to number 2 – semantics
Leeanne – I don’t know, what’s the difference between a male firefighter and a firefighter? In one case the gender is noted and the other it isn’t.
Given that firefighting is almost exclusively a boy’s club, I think gender notation is perfectly acceptable to mention.
It’s so good to see a female firefighter taking so much pride in her work. Rock on chica!
Shannon – I just thought that the gender of the firefighter in question would be reasonably clear from the picture itself. Labeling her simply a ‘firefighter’ would have gotten the point across just fine, I feel.
I’m not accusing you of being sexist or anything, I just felt the need to comment.
waistband impressions on ladies make me feel cuddly.
Leeanne this is BME and Modblog! I dont think that any of us should assume the gender based on that picture or the tattoo.
ohhh the 2 hearts are tan lines… that in scars would look awsome 🙂
A firefighter, as opposed to a female firefighter, is in a state of indeterminate gender, a la schrodinger’s cat. the probability waveform of their sex has not yet collapsed, until when you drop their pants and see which genitalia is now in your face, and the waveform resolves into a determined male firefighter or female firefighter.
This tattoo makes me smile. It’s rather adorable.
Oh and I just noticed her belly bar – flames. =]
we can’t see any genetalia in the picture, I think the mention of gender is completely acceptable. It could have been a hairless man, there have been less common things on modblog!
I thought Leeanne was going to tell us a joke. I am slightly disappointed. 🙁
that tattoo is really poorly done! cute idea, but it looks like shit.
Was this the first tattoo the artist did?
Oh, I love Modblog, where we automatically think “Cool scar!” and it’s only tanning bed stickers. And then think “awww…too bad.”
And I agree with 16 & 17 – this is not high quality work, but I’m glad she likes it!
holy pants-marks.
Damn! I was really hoping for the click through.
The difference between a male firefighter and a female? Easy…which would you rather coming to pull your ass out of a fire!!!
