New psychology research uncovers surprisingly consistent misjudgments of tattooed individuals

New research finds that while people often agree on what a tattoo says about someone’s personality, those judgments are usually wrong. The study reveals a consistent gap between how tattoos are perceived and the actual personalities of their wearers.

    That is a lot more common than surgery to remove a belly button or nipples. I’ve known people who had done that with their eyes, so that doesn’t seem anywhere near as concerning to me.

      Many things are common. It doesn’t make them safe or legal. https://www.aao.org/education/clinical-video/scleral-tattoo-gone-wrong

        I dont believe I commented at all on legality or safety, only on what I personally consider a concern (surgery).

        If you’re trying to create an argument, I’m not remotely interested.

          I am not creating a argument but merely pointing out that your sense of concern and risk assessment differs from that of most people.
