![]() Why put a stigma on something as personal as a tattoo? Hey, if it sucks then tell me, but why stigmatize it?ĭamn, this tattoo culture sometimes feels like a cult. But to berate me, or make me try to feel uncomfortable because I have a tattoo - why bother? (I know, it's because in general people suck). I realize there are people who don't like art, so if those people just said they are not interested in tattoos, that would be fine. Why can't people just simply look at a tattoo from an artistic/quality viewpoint? Regardless if they like the style or not, at least give me your artistic impression. It's the people who cringe at you or can't even look at the tattoo for reasons such as "why would you inflict a wound on yourself?", and then there are those people who frown at you and feel uncomfortable because all of the sudden "you aren't the person I thought you were?". ![]() ![]() When I tell people, some of them have tattoos of their own and we share, some of them don't have tattoos but like them, and some just haven't put it on their priority list (haven't given the subject much thought).īut then there are "Those" people. So since I do, I get to see lots of reactions. I have no qualms about telling anyone that I have tattoos. And in my small "circle" of peopple I know in this vast world, I've already tasted the tattoo stigma. Now here I am two years later with two upper arm tattoos. Maybe that's because I played piano since I was 5 years old and was already into the arts. I didn't necessarily look at tattoos longingly, but I admired them as art. Long before I got my 1st tattoo at the ripe young age of 50, I always admired them. ![]()
