Q.
A. The indigenous population of New Zealand which was here when James Cook arrived. Supposedly once cannibals and not a homogenous group of people, but many warring tribes ("Iwis"), who were united with the Treaty of Waitangi. They represent about 20% of NZ's population and maintain their language and customs, which includes the Marae, their gathering halls. They have a tradition of expressing issues in gatherings by singing, which can take a long time. Women must earn the right to speak during such gatherings, and will sport a tattoo on their chin to indicate that they have earned that right.
Maori are a barely visible minority in NZ, participating in daily life as everyone does. My neighbours' wives are both Maori. We get on splendidly. I also have some Maori students, and they are incredibly talented (I teach art and design).

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.
