Reply #7: Wait until some 25 year old sues based on regret over piercings

and tattoos.

They will claim..."I was so young, I didn't know what I was doing"...

To be honest I think that there are a lot of people who do not understand that some forms of body art may end up limiting their career choices.

I know of two people who had tatoos that were a source of contention in employment. One was a business consultant who had her arm tattoo removed surgically by a hack...it scarred her arm horribly..but as she said..."this scar is more palatable to an employer than the tattoo I had there before". Another was an engineer who wore long sleeves all year round at work to make sure that no one knew they were there....

Personally as I am an advocate of choice I think that people should be free to do what they want with their bodies but they should consider the effects.
