Arguments About People With Tattoos

I am writing to inform you that in your article about Charlotte Tumiltry you have made incorrect accusations about individuals with tattoos. Throughout this letter I will raise valid points and hopefully succeed in changing your point of view about people with tattoos.

Firstly, you argued that, “teachers shouldn’t have tattoos because it looks unprofessional”. Being professional has nothing to do with your looks. You are just making an assumption and saying that all of the human population who have been inked look unprofessional. This remark you made is incorrect and this is because the majority of people who are working in high class professions have tattoos. For example one of the most successful human beings in history was Muhammad Ali. Even though he had inking it didn’t stop him achieving his goal and in today’s society he is a role model to others. So if an educator gets a tattoo what difference would it make? She is still qualified enough to teach. Wouldn’t you be outraged if someone discriminated against you just because of your inking?

Furthermore, I believe that an individual may have a tattoo, no matter what field of work they are doing and this is because that

person owns their own body and may do whatever they like with it. The thought that companies will not hire someone because they have inking on their body not only blows my mind but is absurd. Companies are not supposed to judge people on ethnicity, age, gender or looks, but they can turn away potential employees because they're tattooed? Tattoos have absolutely no effect on people’s intelligence, personality or skills. Hence getting a picture inked on your body doesn’t affect the person on the inside.
You correspondingly mentioned that “tattoos give the British a bad reputation”, this comment that you made is highly incorrect.

This is due to the fact that tattoos are a piece of art and they are considered as a very important piece of work. In fact it arguably is one of the oldest forms of painting in history. In books and Egyptian work we can perceive that tattoos are a fragment of history and they’re for people from negative backgrounds. People in cultures all around the world are “judging books by their covers” and bodies. The primary focus of modern tattoos is self-expression. The stereotypes associated with tattoos are slowly being disbanded and now accepted around the world in multiple countries. So if it doesn’t give other countries a bad reputation then why should it give Britain

one?
You claimed that young people might be innovated to have ridiculous tattoos if they see their teachers with them. Your actual words were: “we don’t want the kiddies getting encouraging signals about inking a pineapple on their nose at such a tender age”. I strongly believe that the majority of individuals won’t be influenced from others. This is because each person has a different personality and so a different taste, so actually instead of encouraging them they might actually discourage them. Furthermore getting a tattoo requires you to be eighteen. At this age all young people are mature enough to think for themselves and make decisions for themselves. Expanding on the same point, teachers are a whole different generation than students which means that a majority will not follow the same path. Most, if not all will consider celebrities, famous people, students and people their age as role models for style and taste.
Additionally, you stated that: “tattoo of a giant cheryl rose on their buttocks or hot cross buns on their buns”. Here indirectly you are saying that people with art on their body are irresponsible and thoughtless. This statement you made is inaccurate and this is because when people get tattoos they are responsible enough to make that decision. Only a small minority will decide to get inappropriate inking. Secondly who are you to evaluate an individual’s tattoos? Individuals may get a variety which isn’t ill-advised and some people have religious emblems, so are you saying that even those are irresponsible? Every tattoo may vary from person to person. Two individuals having similar tattoos may not necessarily intend the same meaning. A majority of people get them to represent an event in their life or a specific time which they won’t forget. I personally believe that your body is like an empty canvas. Getting a tattoo just makes your body stand out and makes it unique from other people’s bodies.
