I have tattoos that I can hide when I want to and show when I want to. I got them for me, knowing how other people feel about them so I accept the curiosity and the questions I get and take them with a grain of salt. I love tattoos, and I will probably always get more.
Luckily I have a beautiful back… there is lots of room to fill it! But do I want everyone to see them? No, not always. Certain people don’t understand and I realize that, accept it and flaunt them when and where I want to and hide them when I don’t want to.
I am careful to get the right things that I feel define who I am. I mean I wouldn’t get some stupid south park character, because that’s dumb to me, for my personality, I have things that reflect my personal truths so I can’t very well blame anyone else for whatever they believe concerning them.
It is not my business what you think about me, or anything I do with my body but realistically I am aware that just because I get this or that for me to define me that isn’t going to stop anyone else from thinking whatever the hell they want to about it.
and really… So what.
