It is so refreshing to see a natural body without these man-made inscriptions. The body is so beautiful.

Tattoo artistry came about to disguise the slave marking. If you had a tattoo- everyone knew you were once a slave or was still a slave in hiding.

Why would anyone want to mark themselves as a slave?

RE: Lower Back Tattoos

Check out the Steve Lynch “Tattoo” sing, third verse.

Me, I just tell people that tattos are against my religion. They look at me wondering to what esoteric religious cult I belong. If I am merciful, I just tell them to check out Leviticus 19:28. (Most of the time, I leave them wondering.)

Yeah, right. You and Bill Clinton, man, you and Bill Clinton.

At this point, I only have two choices: never getting a tattoo, or getting a dragon that wraps across my chest and back, its tail extending down one of my legs. Anything else would be pathetic and conformist.

Here’s a recent article about a woman who regrets her sleeve tattoo. I imagine there are many more: “I now think of my sleeve as a form of socially legitimised self-harm…”

Perhaps that used to be the case. But nowadays, tattoos like that are displayed for the world to see almost all the time. And in bikinis as well. One can see tons of them at the beach, on women just walking around.

Especially ugly are the tats on old people that look more or less like a blue smudge after so many years.
