1. Strangers asking “Do you
eat?” and having people
tell you to eat something all
the time.grin

2. Trying to find pants that fit
in the waist but are long
enough in the leg.

3. Hearing people would
“love to have your
problem” and that you
have no reason to be
insecure or complain
because you’re skinny.

4. Skinny legs make your feet
look huge.

5. Uncushioned chairs and
benches hurt your
buttbone.

6. Not being able to donate
blood because you don’t
reach the 110 pound
weight requirement.

7. People saying they’re
scared to hug you because
they might break you.

8. Always. Needing. Belts.

9. The assumption that you
have an eating disorder, as
if looks can diagnose
mental health.

10. Being told to be careful
when it’s windy outside
because you might just
blow away. grin

11. People joking about your
weight, as if it’s not just as
hurtful as making a fat
joke to someone who is
overweight. lol

12. Wearing the same size
bra you wore in middle
school.

13. No one believing when you
say you love food or that
you eat a lot and being
asked to prove it all of the
time.

14. Being known as “the
skinny one.

15. People asking you why you
workout, as if being skinny
means you’re automatically
healthy or not into
athletics.

16. Not having the curves to
fill out some fashionable
clothes and being told “0”
isn’t a real size.

17. Needing drawstrings on
yoga pants because the
elastic won’t hold them
up.

18. Not being able to gain
weight no matter what you
do, and people rolling their
eyes when you voice this
frustration to them.

19. Feeling cold all. the. time.sad

20. Being told “real women
have curves” and “guys
don’t like stick figures,” as
if you have to shame one
type of body to celebrate
another.

21. Explaining that skinny is
sexy. Curvy is sexy. But
most of all, confidence is
sexy — regardless of the
size.

Fashion»»reasons NOT To Get A Tattoo«« by koolet(op): 3:43pm On Feb 21, 2015
just before you decide on getting a tattoo,
While there are plenty of reasons for getting a
tattoo, there are more reasons not to get one.

1. IT DOES'NT MAKE YOU COOL OR EDGY
ANYMORE
THOSE tatoos you see on old women are
practised decades ago, it doesnt seems trendy
Somewhere around the time tattoo parlors
became fixations in malls nationwide,
tattooing lost its affiliation with self-styled
outcasts. Today, 16% of men and 15% of
women in Nigeria have tattoos.
Neologisms like “tramp stamp” and “tribal
tattoo” indicate just how blase tattooing
has become

2. MEDICAL:RISK OF INFECTION

Tattoos increase risk of contracting infections
or STD’s. Once contracted, they can require
months or years of treatment, and still may
not be curable. The risk is minimized if you
go to a fully registered and licensed tattoo
parlor, but it is still possible to contract a
serious infection from a "safe" location. Even
at fully vetted tattoo parlors, inking needles
may have seen multiple customers before
coming near you.

3. Interference in Medical Diagnoses

Aside from the risk of contracting an illness,
there is also the chance that you may come
down with an unrelated medical condition
that has as one of its symptoms discoloration
or distortion of parts of the skin. A doctor
would have an idea of how to help you just by
looking at said blemishes – but what if your
tattoo obscures them? Admittedly, most
doctors will have other tests they can perform
to obtain a diagnosis, but a clear view of the
skin could narrow down the range of tests
required from dozens to just one.

4. RISK Of DEATH
It may sound melodramatic, but for people
with serious medical conditions, tattoos can
present a very real risk to health and life.
People with heart conditions, epilepsy,
diabetes, hemophilia, and allergies should not
get tattoos. The list also includes those who
have had organ transplants, anyone on blood
thinners, and those who are pregnant or
nursing. Both the conditions and the
medications for them can affect the body’s
ability to survive tattooing. It is not only the
risk of infection from inking needles that
should be considered. Sometimes the ink itself
can lead to serious health complications by
interfering with medications. In the case of
pregnant or nursing women, the chances of
passing infection or toxic chemicals from the
tattoo to the baby are great.

A caveat: Although not normally considered a
serious medical condition, acne should be
thought of as one in the context of tattooing.
Some prescription acne medications cause
hypersensitivity of the skin. This will not
usually cause death, but can lead to severe
scarring on tattoos. Acne patients who want to
be tattooed should wait at least six months
after stopping the medication to reduce that
risk.
Practical Reasons,

5. Employment and Military Enlistment

Tattoos can reduce your chances of getting
hired for a job or being accepted into the
armed forces. Visible tattoos would contradict
the reputation for respectability and
trustworthiness most companies strive for.
Tattoos also run the risk of offending or
discomfiting your potential colleagues. Even if
you are accepted at a job, if the company
needs to downsize, chances are you will be
among the first in the line of fire. Employers
have been known to cut the least savory-
seeming employees ahead of any other
consideration – and they are legally allowed to
do so.
Those aspiring to join the military with visible
tattoos, no matter how qualified, will be
turned away until those tattoos are removed.

6. STIGMA
In many societies, tattoos are thought to
signify low or dangerous character. Those
with tattoos have been known to be mistaken
for gang members by both "respectable"
people and people who are really in gangs
(the latter of which can be dangerously
territorial). There is also the chance others
might take the tattoo to represent loose
morals. Especially for women, this can attract
an unpleasant group of unwanted suitors.

7. PERMANENCE
You loved someone so much you put his (or
her) name on your skin. Now you are no
longer with that person and you want to
forget all about them. Your tattoo proves your
gang loyalty, but you got out of that life ages
ago. Your awesome foreign-language tattoo
doesn’t mean what you thought it meant; it’s
actually something quite embarrassing about
your personal habits. The design looked great
on paper and is a mess on your body. You
need to get rid of it fast!
And that leads to the best practical reason
for not getting a tattoo: they are permanent.
There are tattoo removal services. However,
these work only if you are not in a hurry and
have plenty of money to spare. Removal
services can cost several thousand dollars and
take months to fully erase even small images.
Some insurance companies will cover tattoo
removal, but only for specific medical reasons
("the sight of his name on my arm makes me
physically ill" is not a medical reason).
If you are thinking of getting a tattoo, keep in
mind the risks to your future – physical,
social, and financial – before goingahead

8.You'll Probably Regret it

This isn't just something your parents tell
you about tattoos: it's a money-backed
fact. In the past 10 years, profits from the
tattoo removal business have soared 440
percent, up to over $1 billion a year in the
US alone. If you have any reservations at
all about the content of the tattoo you
want, stick to temporary ink instead; it's
about just #1500 here in Nigeria ..
just imagine you wanting to have morality
amongst your kids it would seems difficult cos
they would want to follow your steps...

9.You'll Still Get Discriminated Against

Tattoos have probably become more
acceptable in workplaces generally, but
there are major employers with harsh
policies against them. The United States
Army, for example, just tightened its
restrictions on tattoos,Telecommunication
department, police departments
forbid them, and Disney doesn't accept
visible tattoos or piercings, you only get it
perfect when you your BOSS

You can even get some awesome tattoo
sleeves like these from Ink Health are a
great alternative. Tattoo fashion for men
and women is also a great way you can
embody the tattoo lifestyle without going
through the mind-numbing pain of a
tattoo. Finally, don't look to a tattoo to
make you hotter, or cooler, or hip – do it
because you love body art. That's the only
sane reason to semi-permanently decorate
your own skin.
