What's your view on tattoos and piercings?

Wow… that’s just wrong on so many levels. Don’t be offended by this, but your dad seems like a judgemental idiot and that’s NOT cool. Piercings and tattoos are simply forms of body art and self expression. They’re not trashy/gross/nasrty or anything of the sort. You CAN still if you have piercings/tattoos… if anyone says otherwise, they’re wrong. As long as you have you have them done professionally and properly take care of them, they’ll be fine and you won’t have any issues with them. Most tattoos have a specific meaning to the person who has them. They’re not pointless or anything like that. Piercings and tattoos don’t make you any more or less attractive than you already are either. Guys and girls BOTH can get ANY piercings that damn well please. If a guy has piercings it DOESN’T make him gay and just because a girl has more than 2 piercings she’s not a wh*re. That’s got to be one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever heard. Piercings/tattoos have NOTHING to do with your orientation. If I were you, I’d wait until I turned 18 to get any piercing/tattoo I may want. Then he can’t say anything because once your 18, your not a minor and can get them without parental consent. I doubt he’d really kick you out of the house just because you got one and if he did then he’s pretty sad and needs a major reality check.
