If nudity was more widely accepted, tattoos would be more popular.

    Absolutely not, but I might get back in the gym.

    Mh … doesn’t look like it.

    The US seems to have more tattoos than France of Germany, even though the later countries have a much larger nudist culture.

      I’m glad you have data, because I was just thinking that cultural attitudes towards tattoos and nudity don’t seem to be related, but I can’t prove that.

        Personally, a lot of tattooed people I know get them in places where they “won’t be seen.” If they were nudists, they’d probably not get them at all.

        I don’t think there is a connection, either that’s why I did a quick check of there even is a correlation.

        Also having been to to nudists events and resorts several times I’d say tattoos are less prelevant than in the general population (Also a lot of nudists are seniors which seem to have fewer tattoos in general as well).

    Most tattoos just look bad. They stopped being cool a long time ago, old women and conservatives get them now. Most of the time when I see them I think “wow you had disposable income in your early 20s, that’s so cool”.

      There are few possible non-political comments I could disagree with more.

        What kind of plant/flower tattoo(s) do you have?

    They couldn’t be much more popular than what they already are. Seems that nowdays it’s rare to not have any.

    Only among people who get tattoos for others…

    For lots of people something as permanent as a tattoo isn’t done to increase other’s views, it’s for a personal reason.

    In the US it’s probably going to be the flip. I like running around naked like anyone else would, but it’s not as accepted here in the States as opposed to tattoos, and those are only still kind of accepted. I still get glances for mine and once received a church invitation from a lady I worked with. Lol

    I bet it’d also cause a huge comeback for those rub-on tattoos you used to get with bubblegum.

    Don’t know about tats, but I have a feeling obesity wouldn’t be quite as popular if the way of expression was your body instead of your clothes

    Or not. Who wants to show off their tattooed mishaps?
