Tattoos.

I’m really like the tattoos, but in the same time I’m very critical. Why critical? I think the tatoo like a problem of the last times in the postmodern culture. I know the tattoos have a long time tradition, ancestral in the case of some cultures, like the Maori or the Celts, but the assimilation of the tattoo by the capitalism culture doesn’t have the same idea. The principal idea of the tattoo in the capitalism is the fashion. The fashion tattoo lost the origin idea of this: The mysticism.
In some cultures the tattoo plays a roll very important, like in the war or rituals. Plays a role in the way of the life and is a manifestation of a superior power. Today, the tattoo is the manifestation of the singularitation and vanality of the body to make a difference with the other, which has a political problem. It is no coincidence that the current tattoo(the machine tattoo) was invented by the north americans.
Anyway, I think the tattoos look so good in some cases, especially in the girls…
