You're a good man

I got a tattoo to cover a rather unsightly scar, and I can assure you the person doing the tattoo was a classically trained artist, a painter. Their art was all over the walls in frames, and it was beautiful.

You can hate them, you don't have to get one, you can make the argument that people get too many, and tattoo addiction is not pretty, and there are plenty of people getting stupid tattoos or too many random things and it looks retarded.

But saying there is no such thing as a tattoo artist is just blind ignorance covering your hatred of a thing.

People have been getting tattoos for a LONG LONG time. And it can be art, or it can be shit, it's down to the person and the artist.

I think you're forced to hate it because it's become popular and people get impulse tattoos and what you hate is people getting tattoos for no reason and it's polluting the natural beauty of a person's body a lot of the time. I think for the most part women have no business getting tattoos.

tattoos are for trash.

i don't care if you want to cover a scar.

i have injuries too.

fuck the vandalism of the human body.

And you don't have to get a tattoo, there are plenty of people who don't get them. And I understand your distaste of them due to the popularity and societal pressure.

Blame social media, plenty of people got them before, and they've been around for a long time, but now girls see pretty pictures and postmodern feminism tells them to write slut on themselves.

But you're clearly upset about something more than tattoos.

That's your personal opinion, based on your personal set of values. Values are subjective. Your values are not objectively the most correct values. Something not aligning with your values does not make it objectively bad, or "a fact". In fact, I can guarantee that your values simply align with your own self-interest. Your values promote what gets you the most resources and positive attention.

You are in fact ignorant and have the thought process of a 13 year old.

Values can be objective as they have objective consequences. If a value consistently harms evolutionary fitness, it's objectively bad. If a value consistently promotes evolutionary fitness, it's objectively good.

Marking the body has no health benefits and some risks (like infection). It only has niche social benefits - some girls are horny for the inked, usually because it was associated with primal manliness in her mind (by seeing tattooed guys who also displayed primal manliness).

Tattooing is associated with high risk behaviors in general, and cluster B personality disorders. If anything, the prevalence of tattooing is a way to measure the degradation of a society into widespread narcissism. It's not a cause of the degradation.

beauty and values are most definitely objective because we live in an objective world where if you do fucked up shit you get yourself killed.

i guarantee that i know more about life than you... otherwise you wouldn't speak such untruths.

You got me. It must be so hard living such a perfect life. I feel sorry for your girlfriend/wife. Douche.

Tattoos are narcissistic and quite frankly, for low iq individuals or people with deep seeded psychological issues.

It's a sadomasochistic relationship disguised as art and expression.

100%

[–] tourgen 4 points 1 point (+5|-4) ago 

That's your opinion. You are free to express it. You are an idiot if you believe this is an objective truth.

[–] Oh_Well_ian 3 points -1 points (+2|-3) ago 

I'm not an idiot. I'm not the one with the tattoos.

It is an objective truth to say that the relationship is sadomasochistic. It's undeniable.

Yeah of all the things to give a fuck about

People who get tattoos are killing themselves: https://www.andreacatton.co.uk/2017/09/particles-tattoos-can-go-skin-deep/ I prefer fully functioning lymph nodes/immune system myself.
