The Popularity of Tattoos

Over the years tattoos have become increasingly popular. In the past, one's employment opportunities could be severely jeopardized if a tattoo could not be easily concealed by clothing. Some businesses have been forced to compromise to some degree due to the increased popularity of tattoos. On the other hand, some businesses still adamantly refuse to hire people with tattoos that cannot be concealed.

Tattoos are common among christians even though the bible denounces the practice: Leviticus 19:28

28  You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the Lord.

I sometimes wonder how much thought individuals give to the permanence of a tattoo and the long-term ramifications associated with their decision. What one considers “hip” when one is in their late teens and early twenties might be viewed as an embarrassment in their latter years.

Here is an informative video on the subject titled: Tattoos are Growing in Popularity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Fg_CW9r0Mo

Personally speaking, I do not have any tattoos nor do I ever intend to get one.
