There but for the grace of God and all that.
Back then - the 90s - tribal tats were a departure from the sailors' tattoos of yesteryear and were, it seemed, fresh and new. But as with all things fresh, one day they become stale.
An extension of that: In today's society, not having a tat is almost more edgy than having one.
People are obviously free to adorn their bodies with whatever permanent ink they like, but I do find it quite sad that so many young people have had such extensive and difficult to conceal tattoo coverage done. They have yet to see that tattoo fashion can change and seem oblivious to the possibility of the image deteriorating over time.Back then - the 90s - tribal tats were a departure from the sailors' tattoos of yesteryear and were, it seemed, fresh and new.

As for edginess, when the majority of 30/40 something mothers and fathers at a swimming pool has "ink" it is hardly an act of rebellion.

I no what you mean though, I was at the pool just yesterday and I was the odd one out amongst dozens and dozens of 'normal' parents
