  2. Key Points • Humans are the only animals who change their physical appearance to match their inner-self • All changes used as means of self-expression • Tattoos serve as marks of affiliation, personal identity, resistance, or identity change among others • Artist-client relationship is businesslike, but involves a lot of trust; artist is in control • The tattoo subculture is a separation from mainstream society

  3. Discussion Questions • Why do people get tattoos? • How has the tattoo industry changed over the past decade or so? • Why have these changes took place? • Do you think any of the allure of getting a tattoo has been diminished because of the new social acceptability?
