Mh … doesn’t look like it.
The US seems to have more tattoos than France or 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.
I also don’t think there is a connection, which is why I did a quick check if 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).
If nudity was more accepted, nudity would be more popular.
Idk… I typically find people with tattoos less aesthetically pleasing to look at.
I agree. The bare skin looks better imo, although I’ve met a handful of people who have tasteful tattoos that complement their looks. It’s too much of an aesthetic balancing act for just anyone to pull off.
My caveat to that is that nobody pulls it off permanently
Personally: They can be tasteful but often arent.
On my GTA 5 character I have a butterfly moth as a full back piece. I could consider getting them but only as a small piece on my leg or something as it’s way to edgy for a full piece.
Same for most other pieces.Imo the only people who look good with tats are people who looked good anyways.
the same goes for me for all makeup & decorations
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.
Absolutely not, but I might get back in the gym.
Mandatory nudity probably would improve general public health… for a while. Eventually, though, laziness would win and then we’d all be sorry.
It would not improve public health up here in Canada, it would increase cases of frostbite.
The (US) city I live in is farther North than something like 70% of the population of your country!
Anchorage?
Minneapolis. Continental US.
Most of Canada live in Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver BC; Minneapolis is father north than where the bulk of the population of Canada lives.
Edit: Figured you might want a source. 70% of Canadians live South of the 49th parallel.. Minneapolis lies near the 45th parallel.
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?
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”.
Not all people with tattoos are trashy, but all trashy people have tattoos.
There are few possible non-political comments I could disagree with more.
What kind of plant/flower tattoo(s) do you have?
they fit with certain aesthetics (mostly other tattoos and piercings) and not much else, but on people with their entire upper body covered in tattoos it can work well
