Weekly written Analysis 5

The Popular Culture topic of my choice this time is tattoo. Tattoo is a permanent marking made by inserting ink into the layers of skin to change the pigment for decorative or other reasons. I think that tattoos have a inherent message of our society through time, incorporating the elements of popular culture. Tattoos have served in many diverse cultures as symbols of religious and spiritual devotion, sexual lures, pledges of love, punishment, amulets, protection and as the marks of rites. Tattoo is a universal phenomenon, every tattoo means something to the person who has it but definitively they also mean something of our society.
