Nothing projects a strong professional image quite like sleeve tattoos...especially on women/sarc.
40% of Millenials ....
That's all anyone needs.
Does the Bible say anyting about “monkey see, monkey do?”
Witness Sucked, nobody got tats of them.
Easy to get into trouble on this one. But for international mission opportunities, there are many cultures that still consider a tattoo to be a religious expression, not decorative.
Your skin is an organ not a blank canvas.

You are correct. Don’t be so PC about getting into trouble.
It used to be you got a tattoo to stick out.
Now you get one to fit in.
Some call them Tattoos I call them scars.
I’ve never understood the urge of some people to mutilate their body with tattoos. They are universally disgusting. And living here in Reno now, occasionally visiting Las Vegas, I see quite a number of older people with tattoos. Scary. If my kids or a friend wanted to get a tattoo, just walking a few blocks downtown will cure them of it quickly.
No tats on me. I think it’s all about what you’re expressing, what attitude you’re projecting.
Besides being extraordinarily tacky and attention craving, tattoos express a form of rebellion. The worst form of rebellion because they are permanent marring of God’s temple.
No Regerts
I remember reading the following saying a few years back: “A tattoo is a permanent expression of a temporary feeling.”
“Getting a tattoo for purposes of witness may be acceptable”

“Witness Sucked, nobody got tats of them.”

Heh.
But no doubt there are likely those who thought “get a tramp stamp for Jesus” was way cooler than wearing a “WWJD” sticker on their backpack.
I got a monarch butterfly on my back shoulder this summer. I got it in honor and remembrance of my mother. The morning she died the monarchs were so thick you you could barely see to drive.
I think God will understand.
