Personally, I hate tatoos. They seem to be an ugly bruise to me, no matter what they are. A dead skin zone. The idea that a man from ancient times shows how unintelligent a behavior they are to me. Not trying to offend but that is how I feel.
But what struck me is the ones on the lower back had to be applied by someone else. What that means I don’t know exactly but I think it might indicate it’s a known and shared practice of the tribe.
I've read - and had it confirmed while awaiting a minor surgery - that many anesthesiologists won't perform an epidural through a tramp stamp.
I just had a thought ... any accupuncture oficianado’s in here ??
Are you a closet liberal? They are generally the ones who make judgements based on feeeeeeelings...BTW, your decision to mock based on tats is pretty ignorant. Not to offend, but that's fact, Jack.

Humans are a tribal species. We, alas, spontaneously form tribes. One might call this the “Lord of the Flies” effect. This helped make us the dominate large mammals on the planet, but came with a lot of destructive baggage.
When we can’t differentiate from the neighboring tribes by natural morphology (e.g. race), we create artificial differentiation, usually body mods, of which tats are one.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels that way. I keep waiting for the fad to end, but it looks like it’s here to stay.
Judging 5,000 year-old cultural behavior from a 21st century pulpit is blindingly stupid.

It is believed that the tatooed lines on his back are medical. He has an older injury to that area, and it is believed that those tattooed lines are an attempt to decrease pain.
