lower back tattoos

A tattoo which is located on the lower portion of someone's back (around the base of their spine) is called a lower back tattoo.
These are generally more popular with women than with men (although David Beckham has one), and started their move into the mainstream in the 1990s.

In many cultures, the lower back is seen as the center of female creative power, so it is believed that having a lower back tattoo emphasizes such power and intensifies the wearer’s femininity.

With their increasing popularity, the general perception of such tattoos became more negative because of the increasingly generic designs used. As such, they came to be referred to as 'tramp stamps', which are defended in this article.

You'll find bloggers discussing lower back tattoos (and the associated options and issues potential tattoo wearers should think about) on sites like Tattoos and Art, Tattoo Designs Info and Lower Back Tattoo Designs. Tattoos are also more generally available at sites like Tattoo Johnny, Tattoo and Vanishing Tattoo.
