Body markings (tattoos) and the types of piercing/inserts such as 'plugs' are alien to this country, yes.Quote:

Cool
But yeah anyway most of our customs and practises are imported, so bit of a daft argument to be having :P I do agree that having random "tribal" patterns done when you're clearly whiter than chalk and have no links to any tribe other than your council estate is stupid though
i really really dislike tribal tattoo's and all they stand for on white british men.Quote:

I really like tribal tattoos :P I think Ross's back one is really good!
Pre-Christian tattoos are exactly my point, the world we live in is shaped (mostly) by Christianity - i'd like it to stay like that, not go backwards with men and women colouring themselves in with pretty patterns or badges to the new religions of football and celebrity.Quote:

But there's no denying that covering ourselves in piercings/markings is alike Paganism/African tribal groups, and thats one reason i'm opposed to tattoos. I just think it looks very backward as well as being ugly.Quote:

i literally have no words for how stupid i think your opinion is.
I agree... :P
Religion really doesn't have anything to do with liking or disliking tattoos ? :/
I don't believe in religion at all and think it's completely unnecessary for it to be brought up on a thread about tattoos :/

Why would you ever get your partners name tatto'd on you?
I like this!Quote:

if these are actually yours i looooove the salad fingers one, hahaQuote:

Have fun regretting all those.
You're such a moany old man Misawa. Maybe you should take a look at yourself before hammering away your tiresome views at others.
