Do you think chicks are getting tattoos at a much higher rate than men because they only want bad boys to be interested?

Fair question. I have often thought that sex was the ultimate motivator.

But the more I've gotten to know myself the more I've done things to please me. Would I still dress nicely and cut my hair, shave, etc? Most likely because I enjoy looking good.
That’s how I feel about clothing/fashion. I dress well because I like clothes, and I enjoy assembling outfits. It doesn’t make that much difference to women IME unless the guy’s fashion sense is REALLY bad to start out with.

Back on the tats topic. Plenty of women find tats hot on a guy. So women assume if THEY get tats too, it’s a form of looksmaxxing. Not sure about that one, but to each their own.

The idea that it is some kind of mental illness is just silly... there are plenty of nutty people who don't have tattoos.
It is mental illness. This isn't like losing your virginity at a random party. Nor is it like crashing your car in some joy ride or drunk accident. They deliberately go to a person who delivers a painful procedure on your body that remains permanent and cannot be removed. In addition, your body is constantly fighting against it, which is why they like suppressing the fact that tattoos decrease your immune system's effectiveness [science they absolutely hate you not knowing]. And to add to that, except in a few niche cases, tattoos just look absolutely ugly on most people. Especially women.

Women are the purity of our species. Their skin should be soft, breasts ample, their smiles illuminating, their touch gentle, and basically the comfort to the masculine energy. Tattoo'd women is anything but that.

The process of getting a tattoo looks uncomfortable to an observer of tattooing. I don't know how many people watch a tattooing before they get their first tattoo.

Very good point

Some women have tattoos that look good. However, it's rare that there's a situation where the tattoo looks better than untattooed skin. A lack of body art is usually the more attractive choice.

I would definitely stay manscaped at least. Can't stand letting things grow wild.

But to your earlier point, even if you do something specifically to attract women, that is still for yourself. Everything is rooted in self-interest. If I dress well because I know I'll lay a woman, I'm laying the woman because it's what I want to do. And so on. To put a finer point on it, we pursue sex so that our genes carry on. We select hot partners so that our genes are carried on well.
Yes exactly. And, working out to attract women also fits in there. My point is, there's nothing wrong with that, but pretending it's "for yourself" is cope...it's ultimately dishonest because the implication there is that they aren't doing it for approval, when they are.

I think it's ALL for yourself.
