Why? Are you allergic to fun or something?

[-] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago

It's so weird, for over 30 years it didn't make sense to me, until all of a sudden I knew what I wanted and it just clicked? One thigh and calf piece later and I'm addicted. I get nothing but compliments during shorts season and the Leo in me lives for that shit.

Same, first 20 years of my life I disliked the idea of tattoos and thought I'd never, ever get any. Turns out all that was just society pushing puritan ideas on me and I just had to get over that.

Yeah tattoos are the shit! They make these meat bags we're all trapped in more bearable. My tattoos are my favorite part about me

It does feel nice to embrace your body, and like, make it more "your own". It's kinda like expressing your autonomy over it.

If you live in Japan you might want to avoid tattoos unless you want to be banned from all water parks and most hotsprings.

This is one of the few situations where I can say good thing I'm American lol

Yep. My tattoos have no meanings to anyone but myself, and there's no way that my 6'3" 220lb white ass would ever be confused for a Japanese person. I don't need to "say" a damn thing. They can tell I'm ガイジン just by looking at me.

I still remember my first trip to Asia and being noticed everywhere. Was telling a friend of mine later "oh that must be how minorities and attractive women feel all the time but still kinda better". There is just no way to blend in if you are a white-arab dude in a city that is +99% a specific east Asian ethnic group. I tried dressing like a local, I put on my blank New Yorker facial expression, didn't speak much, but nothing worked. Everyone was doing doubletakes and kids/old people were openly looking.

For real? Whats the reasoning?

[-] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Tattoos are associated with criminals, particularly the yakuza, afaik.

I'm almost tempted to get full body art of the Jojo rumble kana to see if one of the guards starts up, "oh? You're approaching me? You're coming right to my admittance stand?"
