Yeah, I feel terrible for her but I can't tell her either because I don't know that there is a way to fix it. |

It is most certainly a penis. At least from the distance shown. |

Yes, I cropped the pic down on purpose because that is the thumbnail view that I got initially and also what I assume to be the view that people IRL would get from being around her in public which is a much more realistic view than the close-up photo that everyone was oohing and ahhing over. |

Wang. It's like her heart got an erection. |

I gotta go with the majority here. I'm definitely not seeing a heart flying from a heart. |

I'm sure up close it looks great, but from here that's a dick. |

Is there any way to fix that or is she just stuck with a Wang on her chest for the rest of her life? And should I tell her or not? |

Well, it already looks circumcised, so a mohel is out. But a good tattoo artist may be able to add in some clouds, widen the sunbeam, etc. to deemphasize the dickerdoodleyness of it. |

She apparently got that tattoo during a flashback scene in SuperBad. |

If I had to guess I would say she decided to go with whoever had the best price around her, not paying enough attention to the quality of the artist. Or she is one of the people who would actually be inked by one of the taint-lickers on a show like Tattoo School. |

She is just a naive, grieving mom who wanted to get something permanent to memorialize her baby....sadly, many people who do this simply do not do the research beforehand. Here is the original-size pic: Spoiler: |

Get a giggle and let someone else help her figure it out. |

Is this yet another code for "get off the dang computer and go do the dishes?" Yeah, you're right, it's not my problem....that's why I like bringing stuff here...I won't be banished for laughing at someone's dead-kid's memorial penis tattoo. |

I'm no expert, but that looks like some really amateur-ish work. Like one of those supposed tattoo guys who just copies a pic and transfers it to the skin, then simply colors by the numbers. 1. Don't tell her it looks like a penis. 2. If anything, take her to a good artist and have some touch-ups done. If you are going to defile your body with ink, at least pay extra and have an artist do it, IMHO. |

Ok my kids just walked up behind me and saw the pic over my shoulder..."Ewwww, gross, mom!" I had to explain to them it was not a penis and they still didn't believe me. Sam, I'm not going to tell her...unfortunately, it's an online support group and I don't have contact with her IRL or I would definitely be taking her out to get it fixed. |

I dunno, I guess I'm in the minority, but when viewing the up-close version, I'm not sure 'penis' would be my first thought. I think the problem with this tattoo is lack of context. It obviously has meaning to her, but to anyone seeing it for the first time, without any other context, are going to go where their minds take them until it's explained. |
