It's not just tats, I'm also judgemental of people with face piercing, multiple earrings, those nails we all did in the 80's, hunter type camo and that gauging thing.
I'm totally okay with service tattoos. |
I really don't get tongue piercings. Why would you do that?

I was just talking to my wife the other day about how you can look at some people and just know they are trouble.
On rare occasions you might find that you are wrong but I'd rather be safe than sorry. When the OP mentioned a skull tattooed on the neck, I have to ask myself what kind of person would want to look like that? What does he want others to think of him? My previous wife was a addiction counselor. She always told her clients, if you want people to stop thinking of you as a heroin addict, stop looking like one. |
I think that a lot of people misunderstand the concept of not judging people. I learned that although you shouldn't judge people, you should judge their actions. Is not wrong to judge that murdering someone is wrong and that the person who did it has done a bad thing?
Do good people sometimes do bad things? Sure but they should still pay the price. Having a skull tattooed on your neck is an action and it speaks volumes about the kind of person you are the the type of image that you want to portray. I don't think that it's wrong to judge in that way. |
I wonder what Barbie's Tramp Stamp will look like when she is ready to move to The Villages.

Years ago as a child, my father repeatedly said something to me, that has remained instilled in my brain.
"Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are." Judgmental? Yes, but it seems he was right. |
I am not a fan of tatoo's. Never believed they enchance, the look of a person.
My son listened to his grandmother, as she told him never to do that, or he and she would have a problem. I never felt the need to express myself that way. I went to a gym in CT, and one guy had tatoo's so you couldn't see any of his original skin. Nice man, but I didn't think of it as attractive. Same goes for women, who have tatoo's over their whole body. To me, this is a weird way to express oneself but that's just me. |
It's a generational thing - most young people today think nothing of it. My daughter has her masters in clinical psychology with a focus on substance abuse. She also has a full sleeve tat that tells a story of Buddha. In her profession it has worked to her advantage 'cause the kids she works with are interested and it opens the spirituality and mindfulness discussion. She has not had an employment issue at this point; however, she is probably in a much more tolerant profession than say Wall Street.

I watch out for tattoo on tears. I was told that means they killed someone.

I remember a student that I had back in the nineties telling me she was so excited because she was finally going to get her tramp stamp that afternoon. I asked her why she wanted to be known as a tramp and she said, "It really doesn't mean anything, it's just cool. I wonder how many forty year olds there are now that are trying to find ways to have their tramp stamp removed. |
nastyness and bad behavior is not just relegated to the unkempt folks with tats or piercings...
How about the little old lady/little old man that would just as soon run you down in the crosswalk as look at you or the one that cuts you off on the highway and flips you the bird. We all profile and we are all stereotypically prejudiced. |
I don't know how to post the site from our local paper but a man was just sentenced in our local courthouse to three life terms today. His name is Caius Veiovis. If you have a minute to waste on him you might want to check him out. I wonder how someone can slip so far into the dark side.
