As a woman with several tattoos, I totally feel this. I got my first one at age 14, my second at 15. That first one has since been removed but I love all my others!

I relate to this … tattoos are quite addictive

Really enjoyed this. While I don't have any tattoos (I've been very tempted!), I still love the artistry of it and the stories behind them, even when there isn't one.

I am not into tattoos but my daughter is. This essay helps me understand her a whole lot more. Thank you.
