can i just say that i was WWAAYYY more slutty and stupid before i had tattoos.

now i have way more sense. my tats are about ME not anyone else. and i dont care that i dont 'fit in' to societies norms, i couldnt give less of a fuck. i have a strong mind and personality and i like things 'decorated'. its about what I would like to see on ME - not anyone else. they tell my story, for me.

i mean where does this crap stop? we 'shouldnt' have tattoos? paint our nails? put make up on? do our hair? shave our pits? then what? hijab?

Tattoo if you can afford it--fine by me--but why does every tattooed trailer trash mama I see in the grocery store think they can afford tattoos, but I as a taxpayer should buy their groceries with that state-issued foodstamp card I see them all using?
