Why is it that someone always has to say that tattoos are self 'mutilation' though?

I don't think it's mutilation, just kind of dumb. The artwork you are so attached to right now won't seem such a good idea in 20 years, and you'll still be attached to it. Tastes change, we grow as people... I shudder to think what I might have written on myself 20 years ago if I had been inclined. But you're right, it's your choice. I just think we're going to have a lot of soccer moms in a few years really regretting that tribal tat in the lower back they got back when it was trendy.
