Tattooing is an art

I mean ... I mean that tattooing is an art form, just like painting and sculpturing.
And even better, every piece is personal, and you can take it with you anywhere you want.
Try taking your favorite painting with you every where you go... good luck with that, unless you get help from your tattooing artist!

The Tattooing is really taken off lately, its not just for sailors and pirates any more.
it for every one, even my 80 year old grandmother that wants a blue butterfly on her shoulder or my boyfriend that wants a half sleeve!
We can probably thank shows like Miami ink, la ink and the next ink master.
They have shown us the world and the thought and skill that is behind a tattoo.
I am not saying that everybody has tattoos, Im saying that everybody can have tattoos, But it is of course not a choice to be taken lightly, it is a mark that  lasts a life time!
so names is generally a bad idea, unless it is you parents or kids (every rule as an exception).

There is still people out there that think that somebody with tattoos, is automatically a trouble maker, a criminal, or a drug addict, not every drug addict have a tattoo, same with troublemakers, and criminals as well.
Does every woman drink tea, and play bingo ? does every Norwegian were viking helmets ? does every Frenchman wear white and red striped sweater and blue pants with a black Barrett and have a Poirot mustache? (Poirot is from Belgium i know!) but you get my point ?
People that get tattoos are generally more creativ, and open to new stuff then other people.
(not saying you need a tattoo to be creativ!) some people can be a little bit to open to a little bit to much and end up as a criminal, og an addict. but that also goes for other people (people with out tattoos) so it is not in any way the tattoos fault! so why would it be relevant to draw a connection ? why do people think there is a connection.
Kind like tattoos are secret signs from drug addicts to drug addicts. which is crazy! and barrettes are secret signs for French people to know each other.

People do use tattoos to show of your story, our your personality.
And this goes for any one with a tattoo, if you tattoo some thing you like, something you find funny. Most people use tattoos to say something about them selfs, or express something. people also use it to honor there family, kids, grandparents, parents.
 And of course people that happen to be criminals are no exception, they use tattoos to scare, make a statement about there criminal past etc. but you can not by just looking at a mans tattoos if he is a devoted father, criminal, architect or drug addict but by all means for all you know i can be all or none.
You can get a sense of a person by there tattoos, but warning! you do not know the person at all, by just looking at the tattoos!.

Personly I think the idea for tattoos is a great idea, for the people that want it. idont judge people, with or people with out. and to the people that do judge! how do you know if someone has a tattoo ? do you live in a nudist community ?
