The Gypsy Queens is a national organization comprised of heavily tattooed women whose motto is "tats, not tits!" They promote a positive image of women within the tattoo community, which does not rely on nudity. The Gypsy Queens campaign for various social issues related to tattooing regulations, women's rights, and social justice by organizing and attending charity events, fundraisers, and tattoo conventions.



In the summer of 2009, Frankie Scorpion & family went on an East Coast tour where they connected with Gypsy Queens state chapter members in Delaware, Washington, D.C., North Carolina, and South Carolina. This book is based upon that road trip.
