ST Reflection (Week 2)

Article: “Ink Corporated

Question 1-
What are some reasons stated in the article why some people choose to have body art like tattoos or piercings done on parts of their body?



They are many reasons to why people choose to have body art such as tattoos or piercings. One such reason would be the desire to be different. People are willing to step out of the usual comfort zone and push the boundaries. Trying new things, gaining new experience.Secondly, to attract attention to themselves. To shine out from the crowd. Some other do it to release stress and pressure.


Question 2-
(a) What are some impressions you would form of a person whose body is covered with tattoo?


The first impression i would get is that the person is part of a gang or sub group. they most probably very violent. so i would keep a distance from them. they actually paying a high price just to hurt themselves.

(b) Would you consider getting a tattoo in future? Why?

NOT AT ALL. Firstly I'm not allowed to . Even if was allowed, that would be a BIG no.Its painful and causes harm to your health. People think it is cool to have one,but i think it actually looks very unpleasant. It would leave a very bad impression of me and paying for it is another thing. A few hundreds to harm myself?? I don't think so.
