Sadly, people in 2014 still judge others upon their tattoos. People with tattoos get rejected more often than people without tattoos, people with tattoos get questioned a lot and get judged (non constructive judgement ) upon it immediately without even giving them a chance to see the person that owns these tattoos- stereotypes. Personally I know people that have tattoos & body modifications and they're probably nicer than most people I've met.
Tattoos are pretty much a permanent thing that will last on your skin forever; for good or for bad. Personally I like how some tattoos look on other people but I don't want a tattoo (currently, at-least ). I think if someone wants to get a tattoo, go for it! You don't always need a deep meaning behind a tattoo, if you like how something looks, and you want it to be a part of you then go bonkers. But sometimes, if you're sad or happy, you'll make decisions that you might regret later. I say if you've been thinking about a tattoo for a while, and you're certain you want to get one, and you're ready to face the consequences in the future, then enjoy your art.
I don't have experience with tattoos- like I said, but if someone is looking forward to getting a tattoo, make sure you're paying for quality; don't just go to the cheapest tattoo artist- a tattoo is going to stay forever on your skin, it's going to be worth all the money you spend, quality tattoos aren't cheap.
PS.
Charles Trippy's tattoos are awesome.
