I know that this happens alot in the summer, but there are days that being drilled about my tattoos is super exhausting
Oh
I have a lot of them, they're visible. but today alone I was asked to explain them no less than 8 timea
And not even when I'm resting, but when I'm actively engaged in something else
And then people touch me? like touching my various tattoos is the thing to do?
Goodbye personal space and boundaries I guess I just
I absolutely hate it when people do this to me. especially when it's to grab my arm/wrist to read the written tattoo on it.
my personal space should not be sacrificed just because you're a nosy fuck.
What the hell is wrong with people?
Right? I've been physically grabbed by both arms so people could examine me
It is- the most invasive thing
And I understand curiosity but I feel like there's a way to broach that and you need to follow cues
If I say its personal, maybe please don't keep asking
If I don't know you at all maybe don't ask?
I'm willing to share those things with friends, and people I know. But really, random coffee shop customer?
You don't need to grab my arm and push up my sleeve
I'm sorry Marzi
I don't understand why people think it's acceptable to touch strangers and be so invasive like that.
I'm just tired u_u it's really draining.
And I've had lots of clients asking me to explain them and then being like "well if they were so personal you shouldn't put them somewhere anyone can see"

how about you don't police other peoples bodies
Thanks for patting my butt guys
I don't want to make people feel bad for being curious but it's also incredibly tiring when a line is repeatedly crossed
People touching strangers without consent grosses me out
ooooh my god what a pain in the ass
This is to say nothing of the creepy questions, or the ones about being ~dark and edgy~
Yes, so dark. With my neon orange cardigan and rainbow laptop. much danger. very edge.
There are just too many people out there now with different hair and piercings and tattoos, like we are not exotic fruits
oh man, that sounds so stressful ):
lmao I'm sorry there is no excuse for that
you wouldn't grab someone's hand and demand to ask invasive questions about their wedding ring
that's also out there for everyone to see!!
I would've verbally laid that motherfucker out like idc how curious you are don't undress someone to see their tattoo????
I'm sorry that happened to you holy shit
yeah it's just gross no matter how you slice it, people have no manners
I verbally whoop anyone who invaded my personal space
