I mean, I understand that, back in the day, they were a sign of rebellion, individualism, self-expression, and “take that, society!”
…but then, so were blue jeans at one time. And, like blue jeans, everyone has one now. No one blinks at a tattoo (unless they’re all over your face, for example).
On the other hand, I’ve seen some very well done, artistic tats. And you’re not hurting anyone by getting one.
So, getting back to my original statement: I don’t get what tattoos are supposed to be for. If it’s to impressed me, I’m not impressed (although I am impressed by the amount of pain and expense you went to)…if it’s meant to offend, I’m not offended… I don’t like or hate them.
And maybe that’s the point: who cares what I think, you wanted to get a tattoo for your own reasons that are none of my business, so you got one.
Am I the only one who doesn’t “get” tattoos?

Well, maybe I DO get tattoos after all!
