I view it differently. Some very important women in my life still new tattoos after the age of 40. They and I see it as a symbol of self-expression. Usually a deep meaning behind each tattoo. At least with my women in my life they get them for their enjoyment not for the enjoyment of others. One is my aunt. She is in her 60's but (even without all the tattoos) looks younger than me. She is from neck to ankle covered in different tattoos. (no I didn't see them all. Just the arms and hand tattoos.) She and my uncle own a change of tattoo parlors and with her daughter a retro clothing store.

I have yet to get a tattoo but when I do it will be the same reason. Personal meaning. Something that I can look at and smile.

Not saying many women do fall into your categories Bone. I just never knew any.

Just as an aside, can people who decide, later in life, that their body ink is no longer "tasteful" simply go get tattoos that are the same color as their skin, rather than the painful process of actual REMOVAL of the tattoos?

Actors like Dwayne Johnson and Angelina Jolie use a special make-up it covers all their tattoos for film and tv.

Other than that if there was a original flesh tone tattoo I would image it being more expensive than other tattoo removal processes.

Lasers art the main way to go. (cheese grater and lots of vodka, the other) But you can get anesthesia sometimes if the pain is too great.
