Tattoos seem to been the recent craze. Before someone decides to get one of these permanent body marks, they should know that in most developed societies tattoos are viewed negatively since they are associated with rogues/rebels in society e.g thugs, bikers, gang members, band members, pot smokers, 'fish for sale' etc. In most cases, tattoos can ruin someone's prospects for getting a job in those societies.

Even locally, i doubt if most employers would hire someone with a huge tattoo on the neck, arm etc, since clients and customers could form negative perceptions of the company.

I've been seeing more men and women, of all ages and sizes, with tattoos on different parts of their body.

I recently saw a tattoo that covered the whole back - neck to gluteus. Shocking!

But butterflies on bread aren't so bad...
Set out to correct the world's wrongs and you will most certainly wind up adding to them.

@jguru from a medical perspective, what is the logic when a doctor asks if one has ever had a tattoo done

Some tattoo parlours might not change needles hence chances of contracting a disease.
In a place where thought is abandoned, freedom can become a curse.
