dennis28, i like your tattoo!

i've always wanted one since i was in grade school. i think i will get one very soon... ayaw lang ni bf pero what the heck, katawan ko naman ito, eh. my parents didn't beg me not to get one when i told them, i guess they just accepted the fact that i still do what i want, when i want to (with responsibility, of course).

anyway, what are the reasons why you got the tattoo and what do they mean? also, how do you explain to other people (relatives, significant other, etc) that getting one isn't taboo anymore?
