Well it turns out that when Jennifer Love Hewitt appeared on a talk show ranting about her vajazzle, it was only a matter of time before someone thought to get creative with paint instead of jewels.

A while back I brought you some interesting news on the fine art of Vajazzling, which as we all know now, is the act of adorning one’s vagina with little Swarovski crystals.  Enhancing the mons pubis has since been an explosive trend in 2010, and I’m happy to bring you the latest installment: vatooing (also spelled “vattooing!”).  Vatooing, is also known as “twatooing,” “vatuing,” or simply “vagina tattooing.”  Except these tats (vats?) aren’t painful because they’re applied painstakingly with an airbrush

So while this isn’t a permanent (or even semi-permanent) mod, it is always interesting to see what people will do to modify themselves when they know it has 0 chance of being permanent. The Completely Bare chain of spas in NYC are the ones trying to make this fad as popular as the gluing of crystals to your nether regions. Although after watching the video, I’m not completely sold on the “painstakingly applied” technique. As far as I can see they’re limited to using a pre-made stencil with an airbrush.

I know I’ve posted about body painting in the past, and in a lot of cases an argument can be made that it is a form of art.  Can the same be said for this procedure?  Or do you think that this is just a quick way to cash in on the fad of women who want to live on the wild side, but not have any real permanence to it?  This also begs the question, is this trend limited to women?  Essentially they’re only adding gems and paint to the area around the vagina, couldn’t men get something done down there as well?  There’s already a debate going on as to whether this should be called “Vattooing” or “Twatooing”, if we add men to the mix, should it be called something else?  Possibly “Dattooing”, no, that name is taken by the guys trying to create digital tattoos.  What about “Cockattooing”, I think it has a nice ring to it.

Now if this temporary tattoo/gemming business really isn’t your cup of tea, there’s always our genital tattoo galleries where you can go to see the real thing.

Digging through the images I have found for this week, I seem to be coming across a general theme……bad ideas. So I think I might be making this bad idea week on modblog and try and post at least one bad idea a week. Some are blatantly bad ideas and others, like the one in this post are more open to interpretation.

Most people agree that getting your significant other’s name on you is generally considered a bad idea. In fact, I am sure lot’s of people thought that the gentleman getting Shelly’s 4-Ever tattooed on his penis was a bad idea. Hell, his now ex-wife Shelly even chimed in on this in the comments thread for that post.

This is Shelly… Ya there is a reason 4 him doing it. No I did not tell him to do it, actually i told him he was crazy for doing it. It was his way to say he would never cheat again. Believe me girls could care less about the name there! Needless to say we r divorced now.

Well Al Farber, the artist and wearer of that now infamous piece emailed me an update to the saga.

Well I covered up my ex wife’s name with my new girl’s name, lol. I’ve been tattooing for 18 years and seen many names on people and I just thought it would look pretty cool there, lol . So I sat down one day and started tattooing my dick it took 13 hours and I broke it up into 3 parts 5 hours then 4 each time after that and I did it back in 2003 it’s never been recolored or touched up, so it stayed pretty good for all the wear and tear I’ve put it through all these years lol…. Well I gave  you two new picks of mine and one of my girls with my name on her, lol .

Nothing says commitment (or often times bad idea) more  than tattooing your lover’s name upon your flesh and if you are going to mark your flesh with your lover’s name, why not take it up a notch and make a REAL statement?

I am sure most of you clever modbloggers can guess what comes after the break, but don’t fret! There’s more than just wang, there is more tattoo dedication as well!

This photo was submitted by ONEalan, who didn’t appear to be on IAM.  I have nothing insightful to say about this picture, but holy cow cadavers, does it belong on modblog!

Of course the non-blurred version is available on the click through.

It’s St. Patrick’s Day, and today everyone has a little luck of the Irish. However, if it wasn’t St. Pattie’s day and you wanted a little Irish luck inside of you, this would be one way of achieving that!

Thanks Stembot, for pointing out this very holiday appropriate tattoo done by her boyfriend DOC13. Since penis tattoos are never an artist best work, why don’t you take a minute to check out some of his other work.

Of course, you know what’s behind the blur, but if you need proof, keep on keeping on.

Subcision is one of my oldest BME friends as well as being the second person I ever met into surgical genital modifications (the first being Shawn).  When I first got interested in subincisions there was not much information available aside from J’s old BME interview. Entering the world of surgical genital modification as a young hetersoexual male was quite unusual, and quite intimidating at the time. However,  Subcision and J were the two guys I could go to  with questions about the procedure and life after this modification, and they never once  made me feel uncomfortable.

Since those conversations almost a decade ago, Subcision has not stop modifying his penis. Pretty much as soon as one mod heals (or sometimes before) he is going back into his penis with more piercing, tattooing or surgical mods. He is a prime example of someone who lives quite well in the “normal” world as a clean cut man in a tie while, unbeknownst to his colleagues, he is hiding quite the array of body mods under his clothes.

For more graphic pictures of his genital mods, keep on reading.

In my short time as a modblog author I have posted a chrysanthemum female genital tattoo and a blacked out anal tattoo. Having already posted those, I was hesitant to add this one, as it seemed like more of the same. Then I viewed these photo at full size and realized how well integrated into her actual vulva  this piece was.

As you may have noticed, I am kind of lame and don’t post “naughty bits” on the front page here, so keep reading.

A tattooed arsehole!

This extreme example of full coverage tattooing was done by  Simon in Aberaeron, West Wales. For a more vivid view and some procedural shots, click through.

Most of the readers of BME are probably already deflowered. That may have lead to this contributor’s decision to re-flower herself with this beautiful chrysanthemum tattoo.

Lot’s of tattoos in this region tend to be poorly executed. This particular tattoo, on the other hand, is a refreshing exception to that, with it’s  clean line work and  vibrant colors.

Work un-friendly version after the break.

Norm and I both laughed for a couple minutes when we pulled up this image. We debated the click through aspect of it and I was hoping this one would past the test. I’ll give you a hint. It’s either a penis tattoo or a giant clitoris tattoo. You be the judge. Click only if you want to find out!
