I'm a nudist and I'm tattooed a faw people that, I have talked to has stated that I should not go to nudist resort or be around others do to being tattooed.

In my case I don't care what they think about being tattooed but what do y'all think about it.

I bet you can find people who take issue with it. But I think the vast majority (]90%) really don't care care unless the content of the tattoo is controversial.
I think this is mainly a generational thing. I think being a person with tattoos carries different connotations today than what they were 60-70 years ago.
Once upon a time I heard of a place that didn't allow tattoos, maybe just avoid that place.

Many people have tattoos. Each tattoo must be special to the wearer - they are for life after all. And our tattoos may show something of our personality. What's wrong with that?

Everyone has a tattoo these days. If a place didnt allow people with tattoos they wouldnt have much business. But I can agree with limiting offensive tattoos. Although I have yet to see one. Best to call ahead and make sure.

As was said lots of people, not everyone, has tattoos these days. I dont and I dont really understand their appeal but obviously others do and more power to them. I have absolutely no issues with those that have tattoos and Ive seen many tattoos at the nudist resorts Ive been to. Even though I dont have tattoos I think Id have a problem going to a resort that discriminatory. .

ANSWERING POST # 7 "Everyone has a tattoo these days." RELLY?? Everyone? Isn't that a slight exaggeration? Check my pictures - there ain't no tattoo's. God created man in his image. So tattoo artists can improve on God's work?????

I'm not trying to or believe that I'm improving anything. Tattoos are a road map of memories of people/things that should not be forgiven.

Is I don't keep stuff so where people keep photos or things to remind them of people/places/things I do not.

I had a friend in highschool throw college we had to keep things simple for him or he would have sensory overload from photos and things on shelfs, and even though we don't room together anymore it's just a habit that I keeped so instead of keepsakes I keep tattoos.

Really both forgiven and forgotten or in some case's the tattoo is both something that has happened to me that I can't forgive and I dang share what a reminder so I don't become like them.

I dont have any tattoos or piercings however, I do enjoy the conversations learning the reason behind some of the art that people where. It is a bit awkward in a textile environment when someone is trying to show you the full extent of the work but it is covered by a garment. In a nudist environment, a full work can be seen. If a person so chooses, they can show and tell the inspiration for the work, works.

[quote]The resort I go to has a tattoo and piercing event every October. They tend to be more of a conversation starter more than anything.[/quote] Interesting. Do you have to be tatted to attend? Does it make you feel more uncomfortable having a non tatted person looking at your art while nude?
