What is tattoo? And why its so in top?

Some says that tattoo is olny dirt to our skin. but some says its an art. its true, tattoo is a body art.

Well tattoo is art, and in some culture even considered having a tattoo beautiful or in some as a form of manliness, but nowadays most people specially teenagers loves getting tattoos to either show off or to express themselves. I don't like to have a tattoo myself because I consider it dirty and it will affect my job as a nurse. Good day and God Bless

Tattoo is an art. Body art. For some culture like the maori or the iban in borneo, tattoo represent certain meaning in ones life. Some tattoo shows what the bearer have achieved in his life. Some people tattoo their deceased parents image or friends or pets as these act as reminder about how important these people or pets are. It is a good thing to have, if you are a tattoo enthusiast. It is not a good thing to have if you don't feel like having one. I see tattoo as an art. I have a few on my body and all of them are tribal designs.
