: Everyone draws on paper. Its a normal activity. Sticking a dye needle in your skin is not. Tattoos are superfical because they

: 20 year olds are doing it. They have not fully matured their character-matured by life experiences.

: Traditionally only 'rough' type dudes were tattooed. Now its being marketed as 'body art'. Like its sophisticated and deep. Though
: who am I to tell a 5w4 what is art? Let others laugh.

What a culturally closed perspective! People have been tattooing their bodies since the days of cave paintings... it is not merely recent marketing at work here. Tradition constitutes only the last how many years?
