It's kind of a silly question to ask, but I need to know

ok...this is kind of silly...to me.
I was gonna get a tattoo on my back,
But do you know if there are any rules against having visible tattoos in master's swimming? I know for high school swimming, I wasn't allowed to wear caps or speedos bearing another team logo other than my own team..so is it possible that they don't allow the tattoos? What about USA swimming? Are the rules the same?

Hi,
When I was in college, I really wanted a tattoo. (Sometimes I still do!) But then I thought about getting older and having a faded ugly tattoo on my sagging body and reconsidered. A friend of mine joked and said "Why don't you get a tattoo of a puffer fish on your rear end. That way when you gain weight, the puffer fish will get bigger, and bigger." Ha ha. But nowadays, I think tattoos can be removed by laser so maybe it's not such a commitment. I haven't heard a lot about how well that works.
Best of luck!
