What is the meaning of a black star tattoo on the wrist?

Answer 1

This question is very vague. There are multiple wristband styles with multiple meanings to each individual styling. For example, the thin plastic rounded shaped wristbands like Madonna used to wear supposedly mean "sex". If the band is broken, it is said that your are to have sex with the person responsible for breaking it.

Answer 2

In the 40s and 50s, a small nautical star tattooed on the wrist was frequently a sign that the wearer is a homosexual (usually a lesbian, as these stars were most often worn by women). It was a convenient way for people to discretely reveal their sexuality to others "in-the-know", in an era when it was extremely unacceptable to be gay. It could be covered with a watch as needed.

The nautical star is also a representation of "that that has brought you home" (either as a representation of Polaris, the north star, or as a representation of a compass rose -- the imagery works either way). It should come as no surprise that Sailor Jerry tattooed many of these stars on navy sailors as they passed through Honolulu on their way home from the war.
