I have a tattoo of cherries on my ankle. I got them because they're pretty and red...and delicious...and signify something so innocent to me.

Ummm, now that you mention it I'm wondering too. I just thought it was because they're cute, round and juicy.

I never thought about the nut thing, I always just thought they were cute. Although I'm not big on cherries. I do like them but, at the moment, don't own anything cherry.

I've been a fan of cherries since before I knew what nutz were, let alone looked like. One of my favorite fruits! Um, cherries, that is. ;)

Haha! I like cherries because they're tasty! My fave fruits and I usually don't eat fruit. To me they're special because Vancouver is full of cherry trees..you can get em for free on any street. And it's so beautiful in the spring with all the cherry blossoms.

But yeah...Don't know where the cherry/rockabilly thing started that would be interesting to find out...
Any experts?

I was wondering the same thing... I have a cherry/skull tattoo and own tons of stuff but have no idea why I like them so much. Or why they are so big in our scene. My mom assumed it was because the town I grew up in is the "cherry city", but really I think they're just cute. And kinda sexy....

Roxy, did you grow up in Salem??? Our store is called Cherry Redd cuz we're in the Cherry City and cuz it's a common theme in this genre...

I think there's some, um, inuendos that go with them. People have asked me if our logo was meant to look like breasts, or if it just turned out that way... lol...

In the 50's cool cats (greasers, teddy boys etc.) would refer to their girlfriends as "cherries", so I'm assuming the current cherries-everywhere look has grown out of the 50's revival (esp. rockabilly). As for the meaning, I'm sure there are many, both innocent and not so much ;)

I know what you mean. Cherries are just so sexy for some reason. Also I'm a cherry girl model for CherryClubInc. Coincidental. ;)

Nope San Leandro, another Cherry City. But if I'm ever in Salem I'll be sure to look you guys up!
