    I don't know if I would say that I HIDE behind my tattoos but with every new one I feel closer to what I feel I should have been born with?? I know it sounds odd but seriously... I don;t even notice my tattoos because they feel like they complete me.

    I live in Texas too. I get more dirty looks/comments implying that what I've done is wrong, than not. The long drawn out 'Innnnnnteressssting'. Sometimes compliments on good work though. I think it's mostly because I live on the "bible belt", and it's not as common here as, say Austin or Dallas.

    Oh well. :happy:

    I love those! The parents that grab their children by the wrist and drag them close to their side and walk to the opposite side of the aisle/street/whatever. :laugh:

    I wouldn't hide my kid from you."I just wouldn't leave my kid alone with you!" I'd be like you can talk to uncle Brett, but stay where I can see you. Jk man I'm sure there are many more things out there "worse then you"that will mess my kid up!

    I worked with people with developmental disabilities and the best staff we had in the homes usually had the most tattoos and piercings so I would definitely trust you or any other person with tats and piercings......some piercing make me cringe but it isn't my body so go for it. Got my first tat at 40, my second a couple years later. When I lose weight this time I would like to add something on my calf.

    LMAO... I dated a girl who had a tattoo of Tweety Bird. I saw her a while back... Two kids and 50 lbs later Tweety Bird now resembles Big Bird!


    **OMG....I couldn't help but laff, sorry.

    I work with adults with disabilities too and I have to agree. It's the people that look "normal" and try TOO hard to be that way that tend to have some issues with it. Think of it this way, I don't mind being stared at, I don't mind explaining things to people, I've got no ego and pain isn't an issue.... That's pretty much a perfect fit when you work with behavioral clients.
