有点道理。很多中国人纹身，好像还是比较喜欢图案。不过总的来说，大众还是不太能接受纹身。好多人只是买一张纹身贴纸，稍微过一下瘾就洗掉了。不过有些纹身贴纸的设计还真是挺漂亮的。什么玫瑰花、卡通画、还有外国文字。偶尔尝试一下，确实也挺有意思的。

That sorta makes sense. When they get tattoos, a lot of Chinese seem to get pictures. But in the end, most people can't really accept tattooing. A lot of people buy a stick-on tattoo, enjoy it for a bit, and then wash it off. But some stick-on tattoos are really beautiful. There's everything from roses to cartoons, and foreign lettering. It's actually a lot of fun, if you try it out once in a while.
