You may as well be telling him how to eat, where to live and what to drive.why shouldn't iyou should be eating plant-based foods and driving hybrid cars--i don't care where you live, but i just never saw a problem with telling people how they should live their livesi wouldn't care if you told me how to live mine--if it was good advice, i would take it

I never understood why someone else would even care. It's your body. It doesn't effect them in the slightest. It's nothing more than a person reaching for any reason to feel superior.
A better analogy would be that they're shaming someone for the color of shirt that they're wearing.I'd say shaming someone for a form of expression that has zero influence on literally anything is a lot more selfish.

i mean, probably not in the grand scheme, but i've always just hated that logic in general
Quote from: Verbatim on August 23, 2016, 11:31:20 AMi mean, probably not in the grand scheme, but i've always just hated that logic in generalTo be serious, I don't want a tattoo, and won't get one. The issue isn't so much advising people against getting one, but when people take the moral high ground and use statements like in the OP to try and justify some judgement against getting a tattoo/people with tattoos. I experienced the same thing with a couple of people when I made it known I want a motorcycle over a car.

Wait, are you telling me that the massive Dashie x Fluttershy tattoo I just got on my arm won't wash off in a few weeks?
