We live in a society that loves stereotyping people just because they look a certain way. This was precisely this woman’s dilemma when she shared her experiences on TikTok!
OP and Her Tattoos
OP (Original Poster) is a woman who has tattoos covering her body. However, society is stereotyping her a certain way, making it hard for her to date.
Sharing Her Experiences
She recently posted snippets of her life on TikTok, trying to share what she experiences with others.
OP said, “Dating online when you have a lot of tattoos is a f****** trip.”
Zooming In on Her Tattoos
She shared that whatever happens or wherever she goes, there is so much “tat calling.”
Every man she encounters has nothing to say but comment on her tattoos!
Men’s Opinions
The men she finds always say things like, “You’re bad, huh?” or “Can I lick your tattoos off?”
Some even tell her, “You look like a lot of trouble!”
She’s Anything But
Even with all their assumptions, OP could confidently say, “No, bro. I’m f****** not!”
They never even try to get to know OP before stating their judgments of her.
Who She Truly Is
OP, in reality, is a far cry from the assumptions of every man she’d met so far.
She shared, “I got to bed at 8 PM, reading a fantasy novel. I get up at six, take my kids to junior high, and I have two dogs. I don’t even drink!”
Who Do You Think I Am?
Everyone’s telling her otherwise. But for OP, she’s the “opposite of f****** trouble!”
Just Stop
OP had had enough. She wants people to try seeing who she is beyond her tattoos.
She ended by saying, “Let’s stop doing that, okay? You look like a f****** nerd.”
The Community’s Pieces of Advice
Many people experienced the same thing as OP.
One shared, “Yup. The ‘Oh, your trouble is big.’ The ‘Oh, my parents would hate that I brought you home. Wanna go out?’ No. I feel this.” Another wrote, “I get, ‘Oh, so you like pain.’ Not from you, dude.”
Similar Experiences
Men assuming something of tattooed women seemed to be such a common thing.
“‘You’re wild, aren’t you?’ Absolutely not, sir,” shared one TikToker. Another replied to her and said, “The opposite, truly; this is not reverse psychology.”
Block, Block, Block!
Some people just straight out block people who only say things about their tattoos. Sadly, the people they talk to can’t seem to move past the art and see who the person truly is.
This woman said, “Literally, at this point, if they mention my tattoos in the first few messages, I block immediately.”
Where Is Humanity’s Goodness?
TikTokers also mentioned how it’s sad that people—sometimes both men and women—look only at the physical.
One man said, “Humans are too much. Lol. The search continues to find someone who sees further than appearance, huh?”
You Are Beautiful!
Some users assured OP that she was beautiful inside and out!
“You look beautiful. Any fool that does not see the true beauty of you does not deserve you. You will find Mr. Right if you keep looking,” commented one TikToker. Another said, “You rock, and so does your ink. You hold your head high. My three daughters are all inked up; it tells their stories, and yours would, too.”
Tattoos Are Great
For people who can’t see the beauty and the art of a tattoo, TikTokers have nothing else to say to them apart from that they are being judgmental.
One shared, “Tattoos are memories and art also. I don’t understand how people don’t get that. It’s just people being judgemental of you because they don’t know you.”
What do you think of OP’s predicament? Is this issue something you also encounter?
