Blueyedsoul Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 There is a local guy here who always posts on CL who sports a Scorp on his chest. Even though he doesn't show his face, I have met him through a friend before and no with 95% certainty that he is poz. I think most young guys are unaware of the Scorp. Who knows? I have always assumed that it represented him being poz.
GermanFucker Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 IMHO a tattoo is just a tattoo. Only the person sporting the tattoo really knows what it means to him and why he chose it. Sure, amongst gay barebackers a biohazard tattoo almost always means "poz", but assuming that maybe 5% of all men are gay, I'm not even sure within the whole population the majority of all men with a biohazard tattoo are poz. So it holds that specific meaning only for and within a small group. So yes, poison animals are an alternative to the blatant biohazard symbol, and many poz guys will choose them for that reason: To make an intimate personal statement without being overly obvious. But they are also cool tattoo art in general. So it always depends on the guy and the situation. If a bi guys who discovered barebacking 4 months ago has one, he probably just liked the design. It's likely different with the guy who shows up at every bareback orgy in town. But unless one asks, were all just making asses out of ourselfs (u and me) by assuming.
PissPigBrooklyn Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 Well put. I admit I love the idea of a scorpion tattoo but there are many other reasons to have one.
FillMyArse Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 My straight female cousin has a scorpion tattoo. She's a Scorpio and definitely not poz lol. Though I do like the tattoos as an alternative to the biohazard. I've also seen a biohazard tattoo on a gay guy who said it was due to being a druggie a few years back. Poz/Neg not mentioned. Unfortunately, never got fucked by him coz he was pretty fit!
versbbbtm24 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 It depends. I tend to agree with GermanFucker, although I will say I know a couple of guys who use it in place of the biohazard symbol. I also know a couple of guys who have it as their astrological symbol. And lastly, I know at least one who has it for both reasons.
James20904 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 I've read that a Scorpion tatt is showing he is poz but if there are red drops coming out of the stinger it is for sure he's poz. I like this tatt better than the biohazard one. Just my preference on tatts.
brayton Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 I know a poz top who has a scorpion tat on his lower abdomen just above his cock...he said he got it so that when he's fucking the bottoms will know that they are going to get stung.
James20904 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 Now that is fucking hot brayton! FUCK! I want to get "stung"!!!!!! I know a poz top who has a scorpion tat on his lower abdomen just above his cock...he said he got it so that when he's fucking the bottoms will know that they are going to get stung.
Guest FinalDL2021 Posted August 22, 2018 Report Posted August 22, 2018 The Scorpion is also a predator, and the thought of a man having one, and my being his hunted prey, is a turn on for me.
Guest ATLSexyGuy Posted October 6, 2019 Report Posted October 6, 2019 Is there any significance to a guy having a scorpion tatoo, or calling himself Scorpion King?
Guest JackEdJIZZ Posted October 6, 2019 Report Posted October 6, 2019 Scorpion tattoos can represent many things. Strength, intimidation, strong sexual power. Like snake tattoos, they can be intended to incite fear and offer protection. But in the gay/queer community, the scorpion is often mean to represent being HIV POSITIVE. Certainly the connection of danger and the toxic "venom" are elements why many POZ queers proudly wear the scorpion to announce their status. I am one of those who chose scorpion ink as opposed to the traditional bio-hazard mark for my symbol of POZ PRIDE. So far, the men who see it know what it means, and a pleased to learn my venom is indeed as toxic as the venom of the scorpions displayed on my right arm.
Guest Porthos Posted April 6, 2020 Report Posted April 6, 2020 I've been poz for 12 years now and I'd like to get a small scorpion tattoo below my navel...I don't want it visible unless I'm naked...I want a scorpion as opposed to biohazard as there is an ambiguity over its meaning... My question is, who has gotten a tattoo in that region of their body? How did you approach the tattoo artist? Having it inked in that location, you would most likely have to be naked...Were you embarrassed? Did you get hard? Any advice?
bbm4matl Posted May 24, 2020 Report Posted May 24, 2020 I have also wanted a small scorpion tattoo just above my cock. Can anyone suggest a design?
Guest Posted April 17, 2022 Report Posted April 17, 2022 Can someone please tell me the meaning of the Scorpion Tatt? Is it the predecessor of the Bio Hazard tatt for Poz guys or does it have another meaning? Cheers
