You yourself are pretty narrow-minded and have limited life experience if you honestly had no idea that some folks have a dim view of tattoos before you went ahead and got one.

NP here. I think part of the question is whether others' "dim view" should be a factor in what someone does with their own body. My recent college graduate daugther has 2 that are semi visible and I was against them when she got them. You know what they are? One is my intitials and the other is her father's initials. At the same time, I have raised my kids to be independent and curious thinkers. She will starting her first years as a HS math teacher in the fall.

Signed,

A successful lawyer with 2 tattoos.

I much prefer people keep them covered while in a professional role. If it isn't covered, then it shouldn't be distracting or obscene.

I could never get past this.

I just kept thinking that if someone's judgement is so off as to obliterate their natural body with superficial colors, that are permanent, that they wouldn't have good judgement in other parts of life.

Grew up in a culture that looked down on pride and taught people to be thankful for your natural beauty. so tattoos seem so wrong.

I kind of have the same opinion. At my DD's Catholic school, I have never seen a tattoo so the teachers must not have them or must cover them up. (Most of them are middle-aged Catholic moms/teachers, so I would be surprised if they did have tattoos in the first place, but maybe some of them do / some of the younger ones do?) Anyway, I too was brought up to appreciate natural beauty and to appreciate the beautiful human body which was created the way God intended, so it seems counter-intuitive to mark up / befoul what Christ intended for us. Not a fan, personally.

Some people don't follow or believe in Christ. Get over it. Having tattoos does not mean one makes bad judgments in other parts of life, geez. How idiotic that sounds.
