People with tattoos are laughing at you.

Women with tattoos are disgusting anyway, so why would I care?

>>18490603 (OP)
Nah, tattoos are not cool anymore. Soccer moms and wine aunts have them. Clean skin is counterculture now and shows you're not a mindless NPC.

>>18490607
>Nah, tattoos are not cool anymore. Soccer moms and wine aunts have them
humans have tattooed themselves all of history and only in the last 150-200 years did some chud victorian come up with the idea that they are degenerate. now whos the trend follower, hmm?

>alcoholic festival whores
>shitty colored hair
>cheaply done procedures (first one has shitty lip fillers to make up for her deep nasolabial lines in her mid 20s, blond witch next to the pink haired troon has had lipo)
I don't care about any of their opinions.

Ah I see why people vote Republican now

>a year or two ago they discovered 33% of clean tattoo ink was actually infected
>a year or two ago they discovered it increases risk of lymphoma by like 28%
>expensive if you want a decent one
>you will likely get tired of what you got unless you are both very mature and very mindful

>I want to wear the same thing every day for the rest of my life and if I decide that's batshit crazy and incredibly autistic I can't do shit about it besides burning my flesh off and having scars.

No thanks lmao.

What personality are they supposed to be showing off by having tattoos? The tattoo wearing personality? Doesn't like 90% of the under 50 western population share in that personality?

My gf is covered in tattoos and I have none.
Women say dumb shit like this all the time, but they believe half of the shit they say and change their mind every 5 minutes.
>>18490607
There's no "counterculture" anymore.

I'm unmarked, have no problems sexing tatted out whores... they bust my balls about being a wimp for not having tattoos but they like it

These women are all trashy. The first one is even wearing a shirt saying she fucked Adam Sandler. That's not anything a high-quality woman does.

>>18490603 (OP)
>>18490607
On a basic level, across cultures, tattoos signify criminality. Numales like this because it makes them feel badass, and women like this because women are attracted to criminality.
In this way, the relationship between signifier and signified might become muddied, but it doesn't actually change.

Unhappily, anything that signifies criminality also signifies being prison gay (see also, sagging your pants). Numales might be fine with this, but that doesn't mean you have to be.

>>18490603 (OP)
A lion doesn't concern himself with the opinions of sheep.

Oh no, I won't get to have the woman covered in doodles while wearing a shirt that says "I fucked Adam Sandler" whatever shall I do

>>18490607
>Clean skin is counterculture now
you definitionally can't be "counterculture" when the basis of your worldview is that we should structure society around disposable 1953 advertising copy

>>18490618
people vote republican because they're alcoholics and/or retards. never been more complex than that, never will be more complex than that.

>tattoos give you personality

It's horrifying how vapid the average person is that they actually think superficial elements like fashion and tattoos give you personality. Do they not realise that teenagers are obsessed with subcultures and trends precisely because lack a personality and upon maturation they forget about all that crap because they have a personality now. These people are developmentally stunted.

Tattoos are incredibly conformist these days. I remember growing up in the 80s and visiting the city. My parents would see someone with Tattoos and tell me steer clear of them unless you want trouble.

These videos are always staged rage bait. Almost always filmed in Florida too.

>>18490913
Yeah I remember that. Only people that had them were bikers, criminals and punks. But not the kind of punks we have today. Punks back then weren't liberal basedboys and feminists. They would just start shit with anyone because they liked getting into trouble.

>>18490913
>My parents would see someone with Tattoos and tell me steer clear of them unless you want trouble.
thats still what chinese people think nowadays. its funny to see them usher their children away from me when i enter the same space

>these women are not even high-quality! high-quality is when pushover tradwife sexslave, that's what 4chan told me!

>>18490603 (OP)
Holy fucking shit...I got so much secondhand embarrassment from this interview. Like tattoos, no tattoos, fine either way, but the reasoning the girls in the video used was like borderline retarded. First girl "I'd be concerned that I was dating a woman." Second girl "I guess he can look at me but only for a price." Then the third two girls, blonde one, "tattoos show that you have a personality and aren't boring," dyed red hair one, "I could do a guy without tattoos but I'd feel like I was doing a girl."
Like holy shit, where did he even find these girls at? It's not about them being tattooed women or anything, but their reasonings are just so fucking dumb. It could be possible that they leaned into it for the camera to try to be funny or controversial or whatever for a viral video, but at the same time I bet at least one was 100% serious.
I'm just glad this mp4 doesn't have audio. I would cringe even harder if it did.

>>18490603 (OP)
I don't consider these humanoids "people". They are empty headed NPCs who use tattoos to create an identity because they have no real personality or achievements to show for themselves. If you need tattoos to stand out in a crowd, then you're too retarded to socialize.
People with a real personality and charisma would captivate an entire room the moment they walk in without saying a single word, let alone flashing some stupid doodles scribbled onto their skin that nobody would care about after the first glance.

This is really what was the final nail in the coffin. When tattoos went mainstream and were acceptable. Now moms in their 40s and 50s have Harry Potter tattoos and all sorts of shitty butterflies and other nonsense
There is absolutely nothing cool about tattoos anymore when soccer moms have them

>>18491169
Nice try, tranny.

Yeah, as always 4chan’s opinion on anything is a lame virgin take. Go out in the world and everyone who isn’t a faggot likes tattoos. Anon opinions are just a trauma response to having no friends/getting no pussy.

>>18491220
Wow wow wow man. No need to be mean to me. It's just that I've genuinely known people who are THAT stupid in real life. Like I thought they were joking, but turned out they weren't. They said that stupid shit with a straight face, no sign of laughing or anything.

>>18490620
boys on the run!!!!

i do not care what disrespectable people think

Hi! I like tattoos! They're comfy and easy to wear!

>>18491284

Not really. The people who like tattoos are still usually relegated to degenerate subcultures.

>>18490607

> Clean skin is counterculture now

How ironic

>>18490612
Romans didn't do tattoos.

Prehistoric humans didn't do a lot of tattoos despite having tattoo tech. They used tattoos for practical purposes such as pain relief. Sometimes for marking tribe alignment

>>18490603 (OP)
All the smart girls at my university are clean looking and don't have tattoos. It's trashy as hell these days and basically marks a low class impulsive person. My fucking aunt is covered in tattoos and she's the most trashy impulsive loan taking person I know.
My girlfriend has two small shitty tattoos and regrets them. They look like crap lol

>>18490607
I wouldn't call having clean skin "counter culture". It's more like high class vs low class distinction.

>>18490603 (OP)
oh no a bunch of women that look like meth addicts don't think I'm cool, whatever will I do?!?

>>18490603 (OP)
the only time tattoos work is if you're a modern day warrior (soldier) and it has some meaning to your unit/service

It’s not criminality women are attracted to. It’s status signals, the impression of being low inhibition, and most importantly, sinful. They love the idea of a low inhibition man who can cover himself in tattoos and is financially secure and in a position of authority anyway but most of all, they just love sin and vice. Tattoos are associated with the seedy underbelly, with nightlife and drugs and motorcycles, all things fast, fringe, and dangerous. That’s why they like them. It’s sin they like so much.

This, I run into dweebs with tattoos all over the place and it feels like they get less cool by the minute. Especially when tattoo icon celebrities like pete davidson are getting them removed en masse you know its over. If I could time travel to like 2010 then itd be cool as hell and id get tons of them but the time has undoubtedly passed.

>>18491474
Accurate as hell. Especially the second one with the face tattoos and shit. I almost thought she had a lot of scars and burns on her face or whatever till I finally realized they were tattoos. Like it's common sense. You can have tattoos literally everywhere else BUT NOT THE FUCKING FACE. I really hope she already has a stable job because if she doesn't those face tats are gonna make it a living hell to find a job. Also she has some huge teeth. Like Spongebob.

>>18490607
They hated him because he spoke the truth

>>18491426
yes, when tattoos have become the trendy thing pushed on tiktok and instagram and every basic bitch has them, obviously not having tattoos is the cool new counterculture thing
we've already reached peak tattoo. all those tattoo removal specialists will be making crazy money over the next decade

>>18490612
>>18491626
Nobody did tattoos you stupid fuck, especially Indo-Europeans and Asians. They were body paint, not tattoos. They painted their bodies temporarily as part of ceremonies, rituals or during battles, and then cleaned themselves up during down time. Nobody permanently branded themselves like a bunch of cattle until you modern tattoonigger NPCs showed up.

>>18491626
You are not an ancient Scythian horseman. You do not ride over the steppe with your koryos and raid city-dwellers of their gold and women. Your tattoos weren't given to you upon your first scalping of a man by your elder pricking your skin with a needle covered in coal powder. You spend your days looking up cool designs and artists on instagram. You go to a tattoo place that reeks of weed and ask the man with a patchy beard and stretched earlobes to put the png you have on your phone on your body. You're not cool.

>>18491692
>You are not an ancient Scythian horseman
yes i am

>>18491686
Otzi the Ice Man had tattoos and lived around 3250 BC.
To be clear, >>18490612 is a low-IQ impulsive nigger trying to normalize vandalizing skin, but it is not accurate to say that nobody had them.

>>18491839
Otzi wasn't Indo-European
also, he lived 5000 years ago, so his existence is hardly proof that "tattoos were popular in Europe until the victorian age bro"
tattoos are cool when they're traditional and meaningful in some way. tattoos as part of modern consumerist society are hilariously tacky most of the time

>>18491692

I doubt that they've ever been a ubiquitously popular form of self-vandalization until television allowed for normalization, but some tribes definitely used them. They were used to track slaves and prisoners throughout history and that's how I see them these days: the mark of a slave who cannot cope with living in an open-air prison and finds some comfort in a desperate attempt at conformity.

Tattoo "artists" really are the lowest scum.

>Normal person contemplating the prospect of permanently marking the skin of someone else with no way of undoing mistakes.
No I couldn't possibly, I don't have the artistic ability to do that without messing up and that's a horrible idea anyway.
>Tattoo artists when you hand them literally anything
*burp* yeah sure no problem gimme $500 I can do that. *BZZZZZZZZ*

pretty well known that tattoos increase the risk of lymphatic and skin cancers. there's so many different ways to express yourself that don't involve injecting metalic salts into your skin.

There’s zero archaeological evidence to suggest that tattoos were ever common among the upper classes. That people had tattoos is certain. Those people seem to have been mostly warriors, sailors, and criminals people who live on the fringes.

Does anyone know a person with tattoos who (if employed at all) doesn't work a minimum wage job? What does xe do?

>>18492353
Chefs, probably

everyone will agree that tattoos are lame as shite when in 10 years pretty much every fat 35+ yo chick will have their arms full of cheap pinterest tattoos. same for men. i have seen so many people with the same tattoos again and again. why would you even tattoo the first picture you find of japanese demon tattoo on pinterest???

Clean skin will never be counterculture. What is actually counterculture is severe body modifications
