Having tattoos doesn’t make someone a criminal, trashy, or a delinquent. Why are human beings so shallow? If you don’t wanna get them, that’s fine, no ones forcing you. You shouldn’t look down on people who do have them.
I personally don't have any and don't want them, but small arm or chest tattoos here and there on other people aren't an issue for me. It's the large area ones I do have to honestly say I don't care for, like the full sleeves or the ones some women do from the neck down the middle of their chest and breasts.
Seems like a lot of people nowadays are into the whole tattoo thing more than 20 years ago. To me it's not good-looking, but it's everyone's life and they can do what they want, I don't have any say in their choices and wouldn't really want to.
I agree, it doesn’t make sense to me
Well, at least if I ever dated a guy with tats, we would never get lost as he has a road map all over his body. And I disagree with you. Some can look pretty trashy.
u People can get themselves tattooed all they want, that’s their business. But I dislike them, and would never date a guy who had them.

You're right that it's unfair to prejudge someone based on body art, provided that it doesn't affiliate them with a specific hate group that deserves harsh judgement.
However, I can personally state that I dislike the look of tattoos. If I were hiring someone for a job, I expect that I would not immediately disqualify them just because they have visible ink. If I am seeking someone's company based on my attraction to them, I will dismiss them if I don't like their body art. Call me shallow if you wish, but anyone who's honest with themself recognizes that attraction has value.
A person can get a tattoo if they want but I will never accept tattoos. It indicates differences in values/way of life. Someone I don't want to be associated with. I also prefer unmarked skin, I don't want to look someone's crappy tattoo every time I see them.
when I was growing up only criminals and members of bike gangs had tattoos. Maybe some members of the military had one as well but it was just one tattoo on their upper arm with the branch of service they belonged to. that stigma has sort of stayed with me.
Women who get a bunch of ink immediately become to trashy and cheap in my opinion. The female body was not meant to be littered with stupid and meaningless pictures. I am especially in awe (disbelief) of women who get tattoos on/near their breasts, why defile your most feminine parts?
Just gross.
They just don't like how inked skin looks. And considering that tattoos are usually a choice people make, that's a choice the person is making to do something that makes them less attractive; it makes sense that someone who doesn't like tattoos would look down on someone for making that choice.
Well, a lot of it has to do with bias and unfortunately, those continue with stereotypes and within jobs, schools, and various other avenues. A good amount of places take stock on the image they present through their employees, their students, etc., which includes tattoos and piercings.
I don't have any, but I'm a scaredy cat when it comes to needles 🤣🤣 I'm bad enough with injections 😆But because I guess depending on the individual and where the tatoos are. If you can cover them up then they are respectful but if they are on your face for example it can be looked down upon. Personally I love them on people, just too scared to have one done for myself🤣
u but we can't force people either... to approve or like of our choices
goes both ways...
feel there more excepted now than before as i see more and more people with then , i suppose there is still a small % of people strongly against them but i feel there less of a factor now that there so mainstream.
Many view having tattoos and piercings make someone look feral, lower caste and trashy. Like you and me, they have a right to their opinions.
I don't like tattoos, other than one or two small ones. Why? The human body is beautiful... why trash it up with tattoos that, in many cases, aren't even good art.
people can do whatever they want. tattoos come with health risks like everything else
Tattoos are not a guarantee the person has personality or behavioral problems, but it's a pretty strong indicator. I have known enough people in my life with tattoos to feel certain of that, and no one can change my mind about it.
Religion made it taboo and old farts still follow those taboo tradition of not liking it
Because it means you’re a criminal. (Slaps you with my purse) now out of my way hoodlum!
It's disgusting, gross. I just freaking hate tattoos.
People still do that?
Because it's trashy and mental behaviour.
