Amazing how stupid people can be.

Dr-Armando-Favazza - I am watching this fucking uber-douche on a show on an MSNBC  show called "Hooked: Tattoos Head To Toe" also a douche bag show) swear that people with tattoos or body mods of any kind are damaged mentally - that their "subconscious" is why they get ink to hurt someone who wronged them or themselves.  Spread the word - 40,000,000 Americans  have tattoos - I can't even think how many have at least one piercing.  Seek out this guy and make sure people know he's a quack with a dinosaur's ideas as to human behavior and obviously some true to life prejudice because he wrote a fucking book about it  (below) - I can consciously and subconsciously say every tattoo I got was done for a specific reason other than self mutilation.  Some deep, some funny, some just because I like the image. The show keeps saying that the tattooed are of low self-esteem or that they want to feel powerful or dangerous.  Oh yeah that's why I got a scene from "Where The Wild Things Are:" A KID'S BOOK! and a cartoon version of my cat tattooed on me - because I wanted to be tough.  I got one because I love that book and the other because I love my cat.  It's not for attention either - no one can see my ink in a normal situation and it will stay that way for the rest of my life because they are not about showing off.  They are for me and mine - trust if you see one of my tatt's I think that at the least you are not a douche and at the best you are a close friend.  These shows and these so called doctors are outdated.  Tell them so!
