Tattoos
Tattoos are popular body decorations for many people. Tattoos are used as a form of self-expression. Tattoos are deep puncture wounds in the dermis of skin that are filled with ink. Joan Jacobs Brumberg’s The Body Project explains tattoos as a result of a society that markets once private parts of a girl’s body. Our culture is one that is “up close and personal” that regards every part as a message board.
