520    "Once associated with gang members, criminals, and sailors,
       tattoos are now mainstream. An estimated twenty percent of
       all adults have at east one, and women are increasingly 
       getting tattoos and are now more likely than men to have 
       one. But many of the tattoos that women get are gender-
       appropriate: they are cute, small, and can be easily 
       hidden. A small dolphin on the ankle, a black line on the 
       lower back, a flower on the hip, and a child's name on the
       shoulder blade are among the popular choices. But what 
       about women who are heavily tattooed? Why would a woman 
       get "sleeves"? And why do some collect larger-scale 
       tattoos on publicly visible skin, of imagery not typically
       considered feminine or cute, like skulls, zombies, snakes,
       or dragons? Drawing on five years of ethnographic research
       and interviews with more than seventy heavily tattoed 
       women, 'Covered in Ink' provides insight into the 
       increasingly visible subculture of tattoed women. Author 
       Beverly Yuen Thompson spent time in tattoo parlors and at 
       tattoo conventions in order to further understand women's 
       love of ink and their imagery choices as well as their 
       struggle with gender norms, employment discrimination, and
       family rejection. Still, many of these women feel 
       empowered by their tattoes and believe they are creating a
       space for self-expression that also presents a positive 
       body image. 'Covered in Ink' investigates this complicated
       subculture and finds out the many meanings of the love of 
       ink"--Page 4 of cover.
