Tattoo's, many people have them and many people want them, but for what reasons? There are many different reasons why people choose to have tattoos- essentially a permanent body modification. These can include reasons such as Fashion, Culture, Memorial, Rebellion and Religion.
In today's Culture they are seen as a lot more acceptable than they previously have but i feel that they still hold a lot of stigma attached to them, if you were an employer hiring a high end executive, who regularly meets with clients and represents the company, would you employ someone that has large tattoo's up their arms? - the answer is probably no. The main reason is that tattoos have traditionally been stereo typed as that of criminals and generally bad characters. there is also a lot of evidence that shows taht having a tattoo can affect your job prospects available in the media and the internet. http://www.youngmoney.com/careers/career-advice/030127_04/
Despite this i feel that they are now more widely accepted and also seen as a major part of fashion and personal expression, who are we to tell people what they can and cant do?
