Tatoos: Why teens like them?

  I'm very puzzled about one thing; tatoos. I don't like people with tatoos. There was once I was at C.C.K heading towards Buona Vista for Train-spotting and this muscular teen boarded the MRT (039-040). He has tatoo on his face with a 'playboy' logo tatoo on the forehead, wild tatoos on both arms. I don't know why teens bear them. Is it because it's cool or is it for pleasure or purpose for it.
  
  I'm talking about permanent tatoos here, not those temporary ones that you wear on NDP. (Tempo Tatoos are fine with me).
  
  If you guys know what they use to make tatoos, share it here.

  teens think that earns them street cred and look 'gangsta'
  
  but they look like 2c whores.

  i dont think only teens like tattoos
  i'd get a tattoo if not of violent objection from husband :"(
  
  many of my friends have tattoos and they are not teens
  
  having said that, as in all things, there are good and bad taste
  
  playboy logo on your face is bad taste.

  Why you dislike people with tattoos? Did they harass you or somethin? No right?
