I think that is a myth. All my tattoo's have healed fine.
I think the real issue is exposing a new tattoo to environmental bacteria.
I heard of someone contracting a nasty infection on a lower back tattoo, which seemed to be related to having sex on her back. The sex itself probably didn't cause the infection, but rather, the act of vigorously rolling around an open wound on a dirty bed or floor led to the infecton.
Its TRUE! I just checked THE official tattoo handbook and it said you will have to refrain from sex for 31 days and 4 hours for the gals. and at LEAST 4 minutes for the guys. The OFFICIAL book also stated however that an application of A&D over your entire body while wearing a full body condom would shorten the wait by 10.756%
Of course you could always cheat and risk having a good time.
Cheating may cost you for touch ups. Feel ups however should be free from your partner.........unless you paid for the sex in the first place?
I have to run....Im reading the chapter on using KY jelly for aftercare.
