MTM — Hot Men with Tats Redux (trés classy)

Welcome to Monday!

This week's theme is another take on hot men with tats.

I was told not long ago that having tattoos is not a classy thing, even for men. (I'm not sure what the "even for men" bit was supposed to mean. It sounded like a phrase one might use to establish some kind of double standard.)

But, hey, we're not about being classy around here. If we were, would we host an event called "Man-Titty Monday"? I think not. So being classy doesn't matter.

What does matter is sexy. And on the right man, tattoos are scorchingly sexy. There's something about designs cut into satiny skin and stretched over taut muscle...

And there's no doubt that the young gentleman above is sexy. The silky oiled skin. The pecs and abs. The biceps, one of which is tatted up for our viewing pleasure. And you know what? I like the armpit hair. Honestly, I do.


Boxing is one of the best ways to build arms and abs because of the intense workout it provides. I have no idea whether this guy is a boxer or whether the gloves are just props, and I don't care. He looks like a boxer — and I'd love to go a couple of rounds with him. He can get me up against the ropes any time.

He's got a lot of ink on his body. You know that had to hurt. I love how the tat ends at his nipple and sort of rims it. Kind of draws my eyes... right... there...

Study his tattoos closely — I know you will — and see if you can figure out what they represent.



I'm not sure what this gentleman is looking at. Is he expecting something to happen down below his waistband? Should we watch in case something does happen?

Okay, so while we wait to see if his junk gets jiggy, let's take time to appreciate his symmetry and to admire his build — ripped without being too bulky. And, yeah, he has a tat on his right bicep. You can admire that, too, if you want.



And we end this week's MTM with a photo of Alex O, also in boxing gloves. (What is the connection between boxing gloves and tats, anyway? Alex is indisputably snaxy, smexy and hot. I wish I knew which of those tattoos were real and which I could lick off.

This is another time when I wished I'd chosen another profession. Just think what it would be like to spend your days drawing on hot men's bodies, watching their muscles tense in pain, hearing them make little gasps as your needle moves over them...

It would beat sitting at a desk, wouldn't it?

Thanks to Ronlyn for the link to these hotties. I hope you've enjoyed another MTM. Happy Monday!

And thanks for all of you who participated in our chat about Extreme Exposure.

Up this week... Hard Evidence and Julian Darcangelo.

Benni Coulter I absolutely LOVE Pamela Clare. We are cut from the same cloth. Everything she says....im thinking the exact same thing. LOVE her books. NO ONE writes as awsomely as she does. Its refreshing to read what she writes as she says what most of us are thinking and she is not afraid to say it. HOT, HOT and realistic. I want to dive into her books and live it. Keep up the great work. :-)

MBR Benni: Couldn't have put it better myself. She is A.W.E.S.O.M.E!!

Monica WOW!!! I absolutely LOVE this! I am one of "those" people who thought tats were trashy, but it's funny, Alex O'Loughlin is the man that changed all that for me. He oozes sex and I was getting ready to post just that BEFORE I even read the article...and there he is! LOL!

I am loving Pamela more and more every day. She is my absolute favorite author!!!

Ann Awesome Monday! Love this!!!! Thanks so much.

Question though - the super sexy guys on book covers as well as the guys above are an example of what I think most authors use to describe their hot male characters(and we the readers sooo appreciate that)however, so why do most authors go on to add (Ewww!) chest hair to their descriptions. Appears to me that the super hot sexy guys manscape or are lucky enough not to need to. How better to see and lust after those smooth defined manly torsos we envision. Just curious.

Pamela Hi, Ann —

I think a lot of us — both readers and authors — don't want shaved/waxed chest when it comes right down to it.

This week's Man-Titty Monday features men with hair on their chests, and I guess I and a lot of other women want men who are minimally manscaped but definitely not waxed. We find a tasteful amount of chest hair (and lower-belly hair) to be sexy and masculine.

I imagine it depends on author preferences. I don't see myself as "adding" chest hair when I write; men naturally have it. I see myself as describing what's already there.

That said, a man who has body hair so thick that you can braid it... He needs some manscaping.

But to get an idea of what so many readers and authors find to be sexy in terms of chest hair, see this week's MTM. Certainly, everyone has their own taste.

Alex O in this photo has some chest hair... :-)

Monica, glad you're enjoying it. Alex O can have all the "trashy" tats he wants, in my opinion. ;-)

Ann Pamela - hey thanks for your reply. LOL! Maybe I need glasses...didn't notice any pec hair on the guys above. Now that little line from navel to down under as displayed by Alex O is sexy as hell.


message 8: by Pamela (new)

Pamela Hi, Ann,

Maybe I need glasses. Or maybe it's just dirt. Dirty men — I like that, too, depending... ;-0

Every woman's taste is different. And to be honest, I would never throw a hot guy out of my bedroom whether he waxes or not.

The little line from the navel to the zipper. Yeah, that's all kinds of hot!

Ann :-) Dirt, dirty works for me!
