If done well, I think it could pass as non-girlie. I wouldn't get it though. I drew all my ink myself.
Got a tip for us?

Ew. Girly or won't get any girls? Unless hes not interested in girls, but thats a different topic.
Why? Check out the yucky earlobes. Some people just don't care as long as they look "cool".
I don't think stars are any more tacky than half of the tattoos I've seen on people. I actually like stars.
...not that I'm getting them tattooed on me, I have enough regrets from my one stupid tattoo. To the original question, yes, that is rather girly but it's your body, do what you want.
Tattoos are lame.
How about the clean, unaltered, classy and timeless untattoo'd look? It never goes out of fashion, doesn't cost you any extra money, doesn't hinder job opportunities- I could go on for a while on this one.

They could, if you put some blood dripping from the stars and maybe a dismembered hand at the side.
Every tattoo I've seen on anyone currently can be considered trendy. Barbed wire, cherry blossoms, stars, insert your tattoo here. I got a tattoo last week on my wrist with barbed wire and a moon and stars on it, trendy yes, girly, probably. I don't really care, the tattoo looked cool when I saw it and I got it.
The dumbest thing I've ever heard was that a tattoo on a girls lower back indicated she was a tramp. Some of the biggest tramps I've known never had a single tattoo.
It sucks that people have to make judgements on what others choose to do with their bodies and with people they don't even know. The world could be a much better place but unfortunately, it's just a worthless thought.

The op is the one asking for our opinion
Yes he is and it sucks that he thought he had to ask for others opinions. Don't think about what others may think, you miss out on allot of things that way.
true but at the same time, its nice to get advice on things before you do them at times too. not necessarily talking about this either but in general
Doesn't matter what stars you choose, it's going to end up looking pretty girly... Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but if you get a tattoo that is at all "controversial," you'll have to be prepared for people giving you crap about it and you being stuck with it, even if they get to you.
I think the tats look good. I wouldn't be worried about them looking 'girly' or whatever personally. I've always thought angelic wings were cool and more effeminate renditions of them seem to look much more appealing, imo. Girly? Prolly.
I personally would never get a tat though. I don't have anything against them, I think they look cool if done right, but I'm not sure how I would feel about it on my skin when I'm 70-odd* with my skin dribbling down me.
*(been off the cigarettes for 2 months now, so it's beginning to look like there's a real chance of me making it to 70!)

Just be sure to get a tattoo that you will be really happy with. If you have any doubts then maybe you should take a step back and think about what you really want.
Don't rush into anything but don't be put off if not everyone likes your tattoo.

eh i disagree. i mean i know people that got the whole barb wire around the bicep only because it looked cool and didnt mean anything to them
i also know people that got tattoos of say their newborns footprint on their back shoulder
some definitly are more meaningful than others id say. but who am i, thats just my opinion
It depends on the canvas
If you have a really ripped back, I don't think anyone is going to think it's girly.
But...if you aren't enthused enough about it that you're absolutely sure you want it, maybe you'd do better to wait until you feel strongly one way or another. A tattoo is a long-term commitment.

The thing that stands out to me is that the OP seems pretty concerned about what other people will think about a tattoo they want. If you are unsure, and people's opinions could sway your tattoo choice, IMO, you probably should not be getting something that cannot be undone easily.
Ear piercing when unsure, fine, you can remove it, things grow back, all is good. Tattoo, when unsure, will either incur a costly removal in the future, or a lifetime of regretting the choice every time you see the tattoo in the mirror.
Bottom line, if it can't be easily undone, be damn sure that it's what you want and that you'll be happy with it no matter what anyone else thinks or says.

Wow. Serious? Get a Tribal Arm band instead.
+1
If you're going to do it, do it with meaning. Don't just get a tattoo to get one.
Agreed but if he has doubts now then what will happen the first time someone says something. Clearly he cares what people think of him.
