Did someone actually say they feel superior to someone with a tattoo? I have a small tattoo and I take offence to that comment. Glad I don't live it that world.

How you feel about body decorations is a matter of your own personal taste. Naturally we all secretly think WE have good taste.

If you read this entire thread, you will find that no one made the comment which you find offensive.

After reading this entire thread, I can say that I now know why at least some of today's students are so confused by the "real" world after having been nurtured by some seriously deficient mentors.

![]() Real world? What exactly would you describe as the real world? The Villages????? Um.....the tattoo folks I describe live in the real world, quite possible took care of you or your friends. Wierd, huh? And if you didn't see a comment regarding "feeling" superior, I highly suggest you re-read some posts. But hey, what do I know, I'm just a tattoed teacher here in Florida. (psst. even some teachers at the Charter School have tattoos, YIKES)

I grew up in a town that was lacking in diversity. I don't know if it was intentional but we had a diverse faculty. We had a black, an Indian (y'know from India)we even had one from TN. During the 60's this exposure helped round us out. I'm not much of a believer in reality anyway, I lean more towards believing in perception.

I guess that you have to know Gracie to understand her. I understood Gracie to mean that she has superior judgement which would be appropriate in this context.

It ain't purty. And since the father and grandfather in this family is a little "soft" on the kids. Someone has to be the bad guy. My family calls me "the warden".
Parenting is not for sissies.

Superior judgement is what is lacking when ink is displayed where all can see. It will limit your opportunities in life. That is the "real" world of which I speak. The one where you need to actually get a job. If any of my employees have ink, it is not where it can be seen. I will not allow questionable judgement to have a negative effect on my business. A veteran's ink is tantamount to a right of passage. Those that would try to justify publicly visible ink are enablers and I would not consider that a desirable quality in a teacher.

I would say that most people profile. Most people will not admit it,... Kinda like being racial. Most people I know will not tell you they are,, but they act it alot. Nothing wrong with profiling somonene. It is done all the time. People are profiled on race, religion, looks, cloths they have on. Ahhhhh that lady has a coach purse,,, she is snobby and well off.. It is done for so many reasons by all. Nothing wrong with it, as long as it does not break any laws or if done to be down right mean or insensitive.
We are getting a little carried away with this thread. Just like a cop profiling someone driving a car because they are black or yellow or red or white, or it has big wheels,,, its a Low-Rider or one bad a** hooptie.. It is a part of us and will always be. Heck ever been on a airplane and see an Arab after 9-11. What would go thru the average persons mind????? Would I hire a person with Skulls all over his face or on the neck.. Most likely not due to business. That is what any employer would think. Does it mean that person is a axe murderer? Not Even.... Just a little food for thought. And I also understand Gracie Girl.. She is the best!!!! ![]() |

My sister had a house painter who had a do-it-yourself tat saying "Led Zepelin". Somewhere along the way I guess he realized he spelled it wrong so he put one of those caret things to add the missing letter.
I don't think it was a rush to judgement when we thought him an idiot.
