Are tattoos passé yet?

Just a little ***** really.

Apparently what a needle does to you is censored, odd.

edit - actually 'Scunthorpe' seems to be fine these days...

It really does not matter what the tattoo is portraying or if it has meaning. It's something the wearer wants to have. It's nobody business insulting them for the decisions they make in life.

You would not insult a woman for how she liked to style her hair.... why insult her for how she likes to style her skin?

nope, it also lets you know she is more likely to put out and more likely to have 'issues'... as already pointed out

You said that the tattoos TELL you specifics about her, then you go and link to studies that say she is likely to.

They're statistics. They don't tell you anything specifically about an individual, they simply state that she is MORE LIKELY to be a certain way. That isn't the same as "this tells us that".

I dunno, I bet some of the hairstyles Ruby Rose sports would cause many an air of consternation from Concerned of Cheltenham. Just look how the Ronda Rousey thread descended into point blank insults.

'she's likely a bit unstable'

yes it doesn't mean absolutely every single person with tattoos is, just that they're more likely to be - is that not rather obvious?

That isn't what you said. Initially your post was pretty much correlation = causation.

Now you've back-pedaled to "she's LIKELY to be like that".

nope, it had nothing to do with claiming a causal link

nope 'she's likely a bit unstable' was from my initial post

'it won't take many dates to get her to put out' - is likely true too...

of course I'm talking about likely behaviour - she's a random unknown girl in a photo WTF do you think I meant?

Ruby Rose is gorgeous!!! glad i watch Orange is the new black

As per one of my posts in the Ronda Rousey thread... beauty is in the personality not the body. Sooner people get over that the better

With you on Ruby Rose. I had her as my lock screen and Alex as my main wallpaper on my phone for a long time.

I thought Ruby Rose was good in OITNB but it seemed like they shoehorned her character in where it didn't really fit. Of course, she took Piper away from Alex, which is good because Alex is far too good for her, and should be with me.

She's a random girl in a random photo yet you feel the need to make wild judgments about her. Speaks wonders about your someone's own insecurities when they're so concerned in putting other people down.

I'm not making wild judgement about her, she is just a random girl in a photo. I'm making generalisations about girls like her.

Seemingly some people get rather would up when faced with facts they don't like.

I get wound up by people who don't know the difference between a generalisation and a fact, but unfortunately that's the majority of the human race so it's still a losing battle.

We can all tell a lot more about you from your posts in this thread than anyone can tell about a random girl from a few tattoos.

you don't seem to know what you're getting wound up about... but yes it is clear you are a bit wound up

perhaps we can tell a bit about you from that too

Can you even see out of the hole you're digging yourself in to?

I think Dowie may secretly be Katie Hopkins being so judgmental of people because of tattoos. Probably makes opinions of people by the name they were given at birth to huh?

dowie · 12 Oct 2015 at 03:34

ITT people are quite sensitive about tattoos

No, as I've said I don't like them. I just have little tolerance of people talking out of their arse.
