Tacky or Tasteful?

Are tattoos tacky or tasteful?
 
 

     Well, everyone has their own opinion about this subject.. and it seems to cause an uproar amongst those who think differently.
     Dr. Dave is a medical doctor with private general medicine in New York City.  His tattoos are becoming more popular in corporate and professional America.  The tattoos on Dr. Dave are covered up with his medical coat.  When he is seeing patients, you would not know he is covered in them.  This individual saves peoples lives on a daily basis.  So is it okay for society to call these tattoos tasteful?

...And these tacky?  
   
 
The answer is no.  Our society as a whole look at these people with tattoos in any profession and categorize them.  People as individuals have decided to decorate themselves with art and we think they are "weird" or "different."  This persons tattoos are considered tacky because they cannot be hidden.  But really, he is just an average person like the rest of us.  Everyone has the right to their own opinion but..people need to stop judging a book by its cover.. get to know someone before you jump to conclusions.
