I second that thought. Unless you're friends with the piercers/tattoo artists. I hung out at some when I was younger. But I was also friends with the piercer and tattoo artist that worked at that time at night. To just hang out at one would annoy those who work there and embarrass you when they ask you wtf it is you're doing there since you're not getting any work done. What are you gonna say? "Oh, I was just hanging out here hoping to hookup with or fall in love with one of your clients."

Depends on how you go in as to if they run you off or get friendly. If they think you might be a problem or some sort of wiseass. Sure they are gonna run you off.

Besides I didnt say every tattoo shop lol. But 80% of them are hubs for their local alternative community.

Disagree all you want. However considdering I have been tattooing on and off for 27 years now. Have owned 4 shops and worked in many others all over the U.S. and in a few other countries. I think I would know something about them.

I will continue to disagree. =] Perhaps the shops I've been in were just more elitist than the *many* you have worked in. Because obviously, you have *so* much more authority than me on this topic. Especially, since you're so familiar with the ones I have and do frequent.

Get off your high horse, it just makes you look like an ass.

What high horse? Im not the one telling someone that has spent years in a business that they know nothing about what gos on in and around that business.

An ass huh. You do know when you get down to name calling you have proved your out of intelligent thoughts to offer in a debate.

I never said you know nothing about what goes on and in and around that business. I'm saying you don't know what goes on, around, and in every single shop. You haven't had my experiences, so you can't tell me I'm wrong. And I'm not telling you that you're entirely wrong, I'm simply saying that you can't speak for every shop. No matter how many you've worked in.

I didn't call you an ass. I said you make yourself look like an ass when you speak in such a way.

The discussion wasn't about tattoos it was about places to meet others, tattoo shops being his idea of a possibility, and me and Thanos disagreeing because we don't think hanging around a tattoo shop is a viable way of meeting anyone for a relationship. At least, like I said, not unless you're friends of the people who work at the shop.

So no, it's not about tattoos, it was semi- on topic.

the point is its easier and faster to meet people online with similar interests than to locate every potential congregation group and wait around.
not to mention it might be cheaper. I'm not sure how gas and internet access compare when you take the electric bill into account.

If you sit in a tattoo shop for 5 hours and you actually manage not to get thrown out whats the odds of meeting someone?
maybe 50 people a day come in there? so in 5 hours you SEE maybe 35?

Internet I could have dozens of conversations within that time frame, four times as many introductions.

events dont happen every single day either, and you need to travel long distances to them.
plus the odds are you'll still end up in a long distance thing if you have a relationship with someone you meet there.


p.s. the internet actually helped me improve on dealing with people, so while there are limits its not like being on the internet is a big negative to social interaction in real life.

No one ever said that there was anything wrong with looking in person. The gist of your assertion is negative toward using Pagan-Dating.com. You seem to be asserting that Pagan-Dating.com (who is a client of PaganSpace.net) somehow dissassociates people with other humans. Your assertion is the very antithesis of the intent of Pagan-Dating.com! Once again (oh how you never, ever disappoint me at bearing your back-side Paul), you dig yourself deeper and deeper into insulting others and belittling a vital and integral business that spends its advertising dollars with PaganSpace.net.

Paul, I can understand your point of view, and here's my answer for ya....

While it's true that it's not difficult to meet people in person, it IS difficult to find people you're compatible with. Online personals are just one way of reducing the number of toads you have to kiss.

I can meet lots of guys for dating potential, but finding gay male pagans close enough to date (as in, go out to dinner with after work) is much more challenging. Lots of guys my age don't go out to bars, and that's really the only option to meet other gay men for me. That, and online. Finding a gay man who's also pagan? Talk about a limited demographic! Many of them just aren't going to be out where I can find them, so looking online is a better option. It's just a matter of finding which websites they're hanging out on.
