Discuss the importance of tattooing the Maori?

Q.

A. Tattoos in the Maori played a large role. It showed your statues, your rank and even your ancestry. Often times, when they tattooed the face, it was a mixture between both parents. THe left side was the tattoo's of your fathers side, and the right was the tattoo's of your mothers.

And yes, even women got tattoos. Often times it did not cover their face entirely but they did commonly get tattoos on places like their lips and tongues.


what tribal tattoos represent strength?
Q. i want something to represent strength and what ive been through
i like
the word strength on my wrist
a white tiger on my lower back
or a tribal sign
i dont know which but it will be my frist tattoo
and if you can think of one tell me where :)

A. Can't you be strong without getting it emblazoned on your body?
The strongest are those that have been through some kind of hell but don't go on about it much.
It has to be said that tattoos are different on women than men, and tribal tattoos are butch.
The only tribal tattoos for women I know of are the 'Moko' where Maori women got a design below their lower lip. Is that a look that appeals? [I think you're supposed to be a Maori anyway].
Also, it jars when people get tribal tattoos and representational ones.
Be strong. Get something discreet.
