Question

Why do people judge people w/ tattoos?

Answer 1

Hey,

Hope your evenings ok?

I think it depends on taste, alot of people associate piercings,tatoos and maybe a crazy hair style with criminals etc, the same as chavs, If somewheres wearing a hoody, and wears Adidas, people tend to think their out there to cause trouble.

I personally love tatoos, It kinda intrigues me & i wanna know what inspired that person to get them done (and how much they hurt!) Although due to my job and me being a complete chicken i could never get one done myself!

Different generations seem to judge people with tatoos in the same way (or so i have found) My dad always associates them with 'Not so bright people' where as my grandmas are dead against them (Back in their day, People only tended to get thinks tatooed if they were standing up for something extreme, and normally not so pleasent.

If you have tat's, Good on you - But i'm sure you judge people (not on purpose - for other reasons) I mean, we all do it, If someones fat,thin, messed up etc.

Behind every face lies a story, thats how i see it anyway! And Tatt's are just a way of expressing that story without words!

Hope that ramble made some sense

Mitz xx

Answer 2

when you show something off, your asking to be judged. deal with it

Answer 3

I highly doubt someone that doesn't like tattoos and doesn't want a tattoo judges someone who does have one because they're jealous.  That's such a defensive simpleton answer.

People judge other people with tattoos because it's something that a person willingly put into their body forever.  Expect to be judged for it the same way people are gonna judge you on your style of clothes, the way you do your hair, your make-up, your shoes, etc.  We all make snap judgments about people to some degree.  That's life.  Either accept it or be a whiny baby your entire life.
