If you are not a celebrity making money from entertaining people, drawing tattoos on your body makes you look dirty and irresponsible to most people!


It becomes worst if you are a Nigerian living in Nigeria, that tattoo will devalue your worth before people, it will make Police and law enforcement agents prejudge you as a criminal even before you are found guilty of any crime.



It becomes even worst if you are a single female, your chances of finding responsible partner for committed relationship or marriage will become very slim. Even when you luckily get married, keeping the marriage becomes difficult because your MIL, ILs and everybody close to your husband prejudge you as a wayward woman not worthy of your husband, so any marital misunderstanding between you and your husband is blamed on you first before they even hear your side of the story.


And if you are a job seeker, your chances of securing a good paying job in a well established organization becomes almost impossible especially if your so called tattoo is visible.


Lastly, do you know that you cannot donate blood to anybody in case of emergency, which means if you eventually have a child or sibling or dear friend dying and in need of blood and your blood matches with his or hers, you cannot still donate to that person simply because you took an irrational decision to draw tattoos on your body which contaminates your blood.



So before you draw that tattoo on your body, ask yourself does it worth it? It doesn't worth the hype at all.


Remember nobody buys a Rolls Royce and use nail to scratch the body paint so that the Rolls Royce can become beautiful.


You are beautiful just the way you are, no amount of tattoos or piercings or makeup will make you prettier than you actually look, in fact, tattoos and piercings and some irrational fashion addons make you look dirty and unkempt if you are not a celebrity!

Stop spreading ignorance and sounding so uneducated

And who told you people with tattoos can't donate blood

And who told you people with tattoos can't donate blood

franchasofficia:
1) If you have recently had a tattoo or body piercing you cannot donate blood for 6 months from the date of the procedure. If you had your tattoo from an unlicensed place where inks are reused, you cannot donate blood for life cos the possibility of your blood being contaminated is very high. For this reason, Cristiano Ronaldo refused to get a tattoo because he donates blood regularly.




2) The Army of various countries don't accept applicants with tattoo on their body, as army says permanent tattoos are health hazard, as they can act as carriers for certain diseases. It is enforcing the recent ban with firmness and young men with tattoos were turned away at several Army recruitment camps worldwide.

Now go back and edit the main post and include this, cause you made it seem like people with tattoos can never donate blood

And to your second point, I LOL, because I have come across a lot of foreign soidiers with tattoos including US soidiers so what are you saying

ednut1:
Most people draw tattoos where it can be hidden. Wearing a long sleeve to work or interview covers your tattoo. Blood donation stuff you mentioned there is a lie too. Associating tattooed to being dirty too is silly. I have a tattoo on my hand and have worked for 3 multinationals plus my current job. Tattoo get any impact lol

Jamesbally:


You are correct.
Nice write up

[s]Most guys with tattoos are cultists and criminals, while most ladies with tattoos are prostitutes.[/s]

You have a tattoo? Oh wow

Imustnottalk:
sha dey lie give us

For those condemning the OP, those facts he put up there are for real.
It is just a common notion. The moment You see a guy or lady with tattoos, the first impression you get is either the guy is a yahoo boy, drug addict or anything sinister. For the girls, she is either a runs girl, a blown ashawo or a lesbian. These are common facts.
And yes, having tattoos and dreadlocks will make law enforcements point at you first In a crime scene. It makes you appear irresponsible at first sight, and for a lady, it makes you look whorish.
I once had dreadlocks in 2020, just before the endsars protest and I remember being stopped and searched by the police at least in more than 3 occasions. In one of those occasions, I was the only one searched out of all 7 passengers in a shuttle bus as our bus was stopped.
In fact, in one of those occasions, the policemen were so confident I had something incriminating that, even after searching me and not seeing anything, they drove me and one other guy to their station and made us UnCloth to our boxers and searched everywhere. One of them practically sat in their office and perused through my phone, from my gallery to my Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp,etc, just to find somewhere to fault me, but they found nothing and had to finally apologize with an excuse that they have been apprehending criminals with guns lately around that area.

All these doesn't mean you cannot do whatever you like with your body, but be ready to face these stereotypes because it is the reality.

The Bible even said we should not draw tattoo on our body and skin.
Leviticus 19 verse 27 and 28.
While verse :27 say you should not round the corner of your head as in skin the hair (edges of hairs round)
Verse 28 says do not print any mark (tattoo) on your skin.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Yeah not ya business..they are free to draw whatsoever soothes them.. people like you disgust me.. stereotyping people by their looks.. nonsense..
