Even the building is kinda cool.
But I don’t want to fuck the building on the right?
“Memes” like this always just come off as jealousy.
What tattoos?
I think it’s the other part of the picture that didn’t catch my attention
I’ve never been a fan of tattoos. They look awful and, in the case of women distract from beauty, not add to it. That said, they can do whatever the hell they want. It’s not my body or problem and they ain’t hurting anyone.
Maybe not all women actually want you to be looking at them thinking ‘Wow, beautiful, yum.’ So many women get so much shit from men every day all the time, often since they were still wearing school uniform. Like you say, it’s not your body and they ain’t hurting anyone. I just think it’s really easy to understand why some women want to take ownership of their skin when there’s so many arsehole men thinking they’ve got a right to stare and touch it.
Did you stop reading after the second sentence or are you saying that he’s not allowed to have that opinion because some girl somewhere might disagree with it
He can have an opinion and it can also be really boring misogyny.
Except there is zero misogyny in that statement
They look awful and, in the case of women distract from beauty, not add to it.
I don’t really want to spend a lot of time doing some critical analysis here but give it a think. Implies beauty is important for women and not men, and their beauty is contingent on his viewing. This is basic male gaze stuff.
Anyone can have an opinion, the point is that whatever my opinion is there’s no reason to make it her problem.
Woman does something.
Someone thinks it’s not good.
“WOW MISOGYNY”
Plot twist: these tats would also be ugly AF on a guy. Now what, mfer.
Plot twist: these tats would also be ugly AF on a guy. Now what, mfer.
They didn’t just say tattoos are ugly. They went out of his way to focus on how they detract from a woman’s beauty. Not men’s beauty. The subtle “women should look beautiful for me” is what’s not good here.
Their take could have been worse. They acknowledged that it’s harmless and not their body. That’s good.
It’s a picture of a woman, why would they talk about men’s beauty? Jesus.
Jesus was beautiful, and he had a fabulous tattoo somewhere you’d never guess.
The subtle “women should look beautiful for me” is what’s not good here.
Offering benefit of the doubt, one might assume he referred to women’s beauty in particular because this meme is about a woman, or perhaps he isn’t gay/bi, and doesn’t think about men’s beauty. Or both. Or maybe something else. Misogyny is one of the possibilities, sure, but only one of the possibilities. I wouldn’t have phrased it that way, but I don’t think there’s enough there to take the route of condemnation, personally.
Yeah this was me when my coworkers were raving about how hot luigi is like “not my type but I can see why you might be into it.” There’s a lid for every pot and people need to stop hating on lids that clearly weren’t made for their pot to begin with. Especially since there’s some really weird pots out there so just mind your business and leave those freaky lids alone.
They look awful and, in the case of women distract from beauty, not add to it.
You did the thing where you gave a very personal, subjective, opinion as if it was a pure fact. You probably meant “it distracts me from their beauty” but you wrote it as if it’s a universal truth that applies to everyone.
You did the thing where you policed the way someone else phrased their opinion by purposely misunderstanding their intent. He literally began his post by stating an opinion.
And his opinion was basic misogyny
Ehh I dunno… I don’t agree with him but we don’t have to preface our opinions with “this is just how I feel, but…”.
If I say “this pizza is horrible”, it’s clear that it’s just something I think and not everyone has to share that opinion. The subjectivity of the statement kinda speaks for itself y’know?
“this pizza is horrible” isn’t misogyny though, so it doesn’t benefit from the distancing.
Depends on the tattoos. These are bad
depends on the tattoo, there’s some adorable ones out there, this one is what me and my sister are gonna get because I love frogs (username) and hers is gonna be a black cat because she has a black cat
Random tattoos that are full black just for the hell of it aren’t that interesting, however, you do you boo.
This is an adorable tattoo idea!
It’s all a matter of taste.
All these comments and not a single one telling me who she is. Smh my head
Reverse image search ftw https://www.instagram.com/bmarkhaa
The best Christmas present I’ve gotten so far
That girl needs a larger bikini top.
Goddamn it. I’ve become my mother.
I think it’s intentional
Wonder how old people feel about their tattoos like does it look wierd and saggy.
Mainly faded and blurry.
I’ve always wondered about this with tongue piercings…
How do you think old people feel about all the actually old and saggy things? Our actual skin becomes something unrecognizable why would what’s on it be expected to stay perfect?
I guess what I’m saying is do they still feel it was worth it. Seeing the canvas warp over time.
I’m also wondering if there are parts of my body that would be better if I wanted to preserve the integrity of a tattoo like my back. I dk.
No no, they have a point.
I don’t see any nazi iconography in the image OP posted, can you point them out to me?
I was applying the claim to something else
If you are talking about graffiti on buildings then you haven’t been to Frankfurt if you’ve not seen nazi imagery
I was applying the claim to something else
What are you applying the claim to?
Why the reference to illegal Nazi iconography in Frankfurt? The building posted looks to me to be in the contiguous US.
You posted an image of a person’s mugshot who has a swastika on their forehead and I assumed you were conflating their tattoos to the person in the original image of this post.
What are you applying the claim to?
People with nazi tattoos
Why the reference to illegal Nazi iconography in Frankfurt? The building posted looks to me to be in the contiguous US.
I thought you might not have known racist graffiti existed
were conflating their tattoos to the person in the original image of this post.
Oh no, nothing about her. Just the “Tattoos = graffiti, guys” part was applied to the person I posted
Oh ok, sorry for the misunderstanding on my part. Thanks for the clarification.
The building is most likely in São Paulo. Not that it matters for for the point you’re making :)
There’s no Portuguese in any of those tags. Three of the tags are east coast crews. If I were to have to put a location down I’d say North East Miami FL.
Lemmy cannot handle abstract reasoning. If you change the scenario at all to make a point, they shit circuit
I’m not bothered by the amount of tattoos. I’m bothered by the nazi swastika front and center. I would be just as bothered if they were just wearing a nazi arm band or Trump hat.
You’re pretty close to the point.
The point is that it’s subjective, and given the right content or quantity, it looks bad to you.
No, I think I’m on the point. I don’t care about other people’s appearances and I don’t care to subject other people to what I think self respect looks like. I’m bothered by what their morals are and how they’re going to make that my problem. Nazi tattoos mean that person wants to make life worse for other people. I’m not bothered by the dye, but by the ideas they represent. The woman in the picture doesn’t have any hate symbols that I recognize.
You find the tattoos distasteful for a reason of your own. I share such a reason, but it’s your own. Therefore you find the display graffiti-like: a blight on the visual landscape (in that interpretation of grafatti)
We really didn’t need to bring the “criticizing our community in the third person” farce over from reddit. You are Lemmy too, and I suspect you can handle abstract reasoning, yes?
Thinking you’re a special online community is also a reddit trope.
If you have to change the scenario to make your point then your point doesn’t belong in this comment section.
It’s a common way to illustrate a point, by describing it with other variables.
Your reply is telling lol
Telling of what? The dude brought up something that didn’t happen in the image and being like “Oh yeah well you’re wrong because of something irrelevant”
Is that a nazi prison gang sex slave? That’s pretty horrific.
She’s wearing the wrong size bikini top. The cup size on that top is way too small.
Why is that?
See how her boobs are round, but the bikini is flat on the front of them? Her bikini isn’t covering her sideboob. This top was designed for a girl with much smaller boobs, they’d be capable of actually bending around a smaller pair. These look like they’re stretched over the front, because they are. The bridge (part connecting the cups) also looks to not even be in contact with her chest, because her top can’t go all the way down around her boobs. She’s probably wearing a sister size with a bigger band and smaller cups, which means the part of the top designed for her underbust is stretching over her boobs.
If she does very much physical activity, the edges of the cups will dig into her boobs, maybe painfully, and there’s a risk of slipping if she goes swimming or diving. Bras are designed so your boobs go in the cups, not entirely behind them. This picture doesn’t look comfy at all. She might be under the impression she’s a C or a D, when her actual cup size is much larger. This is what happens when our society pretends D is the biggest bust size. Thanks to decades of women being misinformed about their clothing, many people have been convinced that this appearance here is just what a big bust looks like in a bikini. So some people go for this look on purpose. That’s valid, but it isn’t comfortable.
Very well, valid points, but can we consider that was a conscious option? There are women that willingly buy smaller bikiny tops to create the illusion their breasts are bigger. Or that just prefer to show more skin.
Yes.
Then, no harm, no foul. Yes?
You’ve clearly spent more time thinking about boob support than about dragon seduction strategies
Drag simply paid attention to r/abrathatfits so that drag’s boobs would be comfortable.
Might be intentional, a stylistic choice
I’d fuck that building.
I dunno, I bet it’s had thousands of people inside it.
Don’t slut shame that building!
Holy crap! How many guys have tagged you?
I keep looking over the picture of the woman, trying to compare it to whatever the other image is of, and I’m not sure what they’re talking about. I’ve gone over every inch of her body and I don’t know what any of this is about. I’m sorry, what’s going on?
Where’s the other image you speak of?
I don’t even know. I must’ve caught a glimpse of something when I wrote that, but I’ll be darned if I can’t find it now. There’s only the Illustrated Woman that I can see now.
Basically they’re saying the tattoos make her trashy.
I guess I’m still not understanding it. Time to pour over the picture some more, see if we can’t figure it out.
She would look way better without the tats. Even this shitty building would look better without this artless crap. And how is this a political take?
While true…
It ain’t stopping nothing.
Because it’s essentially saying that her decision to get tattoos is the equivalent of her vandalizing her body. It’s a meme criticizing a woman for choosing what she wants to do with her body, which is just a tamer version of “your body my choice”.
I saw that more like a criticism of the tattooing style, not her life decisions. Your body my choice is downright authoritarian. I don’t see how it relates to this.
Even if it is a criticism of the tattooing style it’s still likening it to vandalism. It doesn’t change the message behind the meme.
See what you and I call vandalism on that building some call art.
And the meme completely breaks down if the building is considered art so let’s not play dumb. We both know in this meme the building isn’t representing art.
The meme suggests that this beautiful woman made herself less attractive by getting tattoos. People who tend to agree with that statement are not necessarily nazis fascists sexists Trump voters rapists church goers and so on, despite the fact that many of that ilk share similar sentiments (but for completely different reasons). Believe it or not, not everyone likes this aesthetic and this is not political.
If you think “I don’t like tattoos on women” is the same as “women with tattoos look like vandalized buildings” then you’re missing the nuances necessary to have this discussion.
Your username would be better if it were a fruit
She doesnt care how she looks for you.
She clearly doesn’t care how she looks, yes
Someone who puts that much effort into their outward expression of themselves clearly cares about how they look. You just have misaligned tastes.
Yeah sure, and my tastes are also misaligned with the mentally insane people who smear themselves with their own feces. They’re just expressing themselves obviously.
Nice comparison. Clearly smearing feces on yourself requires the same level of forethought and financial burden that getting multiple tattoos does.
I’m not even commenting on her taste, or yours. Just the juvenile declaration that she somehow does not care, when she’s investing as much time and money into her looks as she has.
As far as tastes go, yours are as valid as hers are, I’d just choose a less inflammatory way to say you disagree with someone’s taste.
You’re right, it’s not a fair comparison. At least you can wash the shit off the mentally unstable person with hot water and soap.
Just because she’s financially able to make her shit smearing permanent through inking it doesn’t make it any better. Doing heroin is also a financial burden but we don’t glamorize that shit.
If she cared that much about her appearance she wouldn’t make herself look like the average shitty neighborhood dumpster.
At some point we’ll have to stop sugar coating every single shitty lifestyle choice people make.
Now don’t get me wrong, she can do whatever she wants. Her body, her choice to look like an abandoned building.
My body, my choice to make fun of people with too much money and not enough common sense.
Comparing women to objects tends to be more frowned upon by civilized people, which excludes the right.
You’re welcome to find whatever you like attractive. She clearly doesn’t care about your opinion.
I’m sure my opinion is as worthless to her as hers is to me. And btw nobody is comparing the woman to the object, the point is that the aesthetic is similar. Applies to all sexes and objects. Imho the building tags are not art, or at least not good art. And her snakes, bugs and Japanese masks are so tired and trite, everyone does the same stuff. Yay.
Tired and trite? That sounds like most of mainstream movies, music, television… Yet people enjoy it. It is their choice to like what they like, and do what they do.
Sure someone else may want the ceiling of the Sistine chapel tattood on them, but she chose this.
I’m happy for her, she can do whatever she wants. She’s still hot af. And people can watch whatever shit they want and they can have all the dumb opinions they want. That doesn’t change how I see it, and I like to think that my criticism is constructive.
I’m glad you say she can do whatever she wants.
I think what many would argue is what is and is not constructive about criticizing someone’s choices. I think it is constructive to tell someone that wearing a reflective device or bright clothing when in low visibility situations such as hunting (if others are in the area shooting like Dick Cheney) or walking near traffic is constructive. But I don’t see any ups to telling someone their clothing design doesn’t agree with my tastes.
Whether I care for her tattoos or not, they aren’t harming others outside of people being prudish and feeling like they don’t have enough control over others choices.
Well to be fair nobody here told her anything, she probably doesn’t know that some idiots are talking about her in some obscure corner of the internet. Way I see it we all should be able to criticise anything. Tattoos are a form of art and people are allowed to have opinions on it. Same goes for the “art” of tagging.
That’s just like, your opinion, man.
Donny, please
this Camaro is ruined! It’s covered in sharpie art!
…it’s still a Camaro
Your face would be better if it was in the sand
Both looks bad. It’s too many tattoos on one hand, and pretty scrambled a bad looking graffiti on the other hand.
Sheesh
