Why do people think that tattoos make you look like a whore?

Q. I never thought tattoos made a woman look easy. I mean, I know she probably doesn't look like a sweet little princess anymore, but doesn't it depend on what the tattoo is of? If it literally says <whore> or <bitch> or the playboy symbol thingy, then I can understand.

I was just getting annoyed with this because I have three tattoos, and would NEVER be labelled as easy.

I don't understand. Can someone explain?

A. I hear ya. I have one that is of a teddy bear laying on its stomach on top of five blocks that spell out my daughter's name. How much "whore" can you get? lol

Edit: this is to "The Truth"... I just love how you get towards the bottom of your answer and totally single me out. lol great job! Just so you know exactly what type of person I am, here goes... I could care less what others think of my tattoo, body, image, or whatever else. I was not put on this earth for a popularity contest, so why should I care what others think? I never have and never will. And do I care what guys like? No, because you know what... I am happily married and we've been together for over 12 years, so it's not like I got a tattoo to attract guys. Next time, don't be so quick to judge.

I could care less what my skin looks like in 10 years. lol... I don't plan on showing skin at that age anyway. It's my skin so what do you care if I choose to screw it up? lol The tattoo is there fore me and me only, not to show it to the whole darn world. And I certainly did not get it because it was a "fad". Keep on trying to figure me out.....

What does this tell you about a woman?

Q. What does this tell you about a woman? She is 18 years old and allows a tattoo artist to cover most of her body with permanent tattoos, as part of a tattoo contest. She does not have to pay for any this, but the tattoo artist does a good job, because he wants to win a price?

A. Well it tells me more about YOU and in that you do not even have the ability to post a query in the correct category or is this a legal question?? Didn't think so. What she does is her business and hers alone.

What is and isn't attractive on a girl?

Q. Do you rather stick skinny girls, a little weighty, or curvy/round? Do you rather long hair, short hair, or in between? Whichever, do you rather blonde or brown? Are toes and fingers a major factor? Do you have to have coloured eyes, or is brown suitable? Do you like more than just ear piercings? Are tattoo's too repulsive and rebellious? [Add anything else.]

A. Here's the deal...

If met women that were perhaps not very attractive, but they had great personalities that made them seem attractive. Another thing that helps a woman (or girl) be attractive in the eyes of a man is to wear NICE clothes. So many people seem to go out of their way to "dress ugly", as if it were a contest to look like a total dork. There's nothing like a woman in a nice dress, skirt or pant suit, with dress heels and a bit of jewelry to accent her clothing.

My preference is for...

Short hair
Eye Glasses (I think they are sexy)
Skirt suits
Heels
Modest jewelry
Pleasant fragrance
Personable

Hair color and eye color don't matter. Nicely done nails are fine, but I think that the airbushed look is a bit too much (sorta looks like trailer trash).

Turn-offs are...piercings, tattoos, and women that have to always be preoccupied with their electronic gadgets (cell phones or iPods).

Original Question

What are your opinions about the Abomination Theory?

Q. There are several verses in the Bible which are similarly contested - there are however a much smaller number of seemingly clear statements. The most famous of them is probably from Leviticus: "You shall not lie with a man as with a woman; that is an abomination."

Seperate verses in the same book forbid a wide range of sexual activities, including having sex with a woman who is having her period do they not? Is this an indication that the passage embodies specific cultural values rather than God's law?

A. Levitical laws from the Bible also say abominations include men who shave, tattoos, eating pork, football players (by touching pigskin), shellfish eaters, and wearing clothes from blended materials.

When it comes to people saying something is wrong based on a certain Biblical quote, it can be helpful to remember a quote from Shakespeare...
"Even the devil can cite scripture for his purpose."

I have a question regarding God's commands in the Old Testament; can anyone help?

Q. Levitus and other Old Testament books have so many rules. It even talks about not getting tattoos(Levitus19:28)! Do they apply anymore, since we have the New Testament now?

A. The Law against tattoos was put there because God wanted His people to be separated from the pagans around them who would do things like trim their beards in a certain way and get tattoos as part of their "dressing up" for their pagan worship ceremonies.

While God still calls His people to be separated from pagans, things like tattoos have to be understood in the cultural contest of why the law was given. It's like I don't think God wants His children to get tattoos of skulls or naked women because that wouldn't be a good representation to the world of the values of a child of the living God of Heaven.

As to the different laws in the Old Testament, all of the moral laws are still in full effect because they represent God's unchanging plan for how the people that He made in His image are to conduct themselves on His planet.

The sacrificial, ceremonial, and holiness laws which were meant to be outward symbols of the inner holiness that God desires His people to exhibit have all been fulfilled by the Lord Jesus and the coming of the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.

Matthew 15:16 So Jesus said, "Are you also still without understanding? 17 Do you not yet understand that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated? 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man. 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. 20 These are the things which defile a man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man."

Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, 14 having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15 Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. 16 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ.

Hebrews 10:1 For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect...11 And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, 13 from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. 14 For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.


Christians are now under the Law of Love

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said to him, 'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.' 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'

Romans 13:9 For the commandments, "YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY," "YOU SHALL NOT MURDER," "YOU SHALL NOT STEAL," "YOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS," "YOU SHALL NOT COVET," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

when looking for occupation as a mechanical engineer, what matters most to an employer?

Q. is it the university you went to or is it what type of person you are? right now im in high school looking at colleges and i also want to know which university i actually have a chance at getting into thats the best for that major. my high school gpa is about a 3.6 and im also involed in sports and clubs and im also a junior

A. Most important is the impressions you make at your job interview. It's been shown that the first 90 seconds is crucial. There's a number of automatic dis-qualifiers for most companies (though they'll typically deny it): earrings on men (or ear-holes — nobody is fooled...), facial hardware, tattoos, tobacco smell, ill-fitting suits, non prestige accents, cultural insensitivity (Indian/Pakistani men and women often lose out because of head-bobbing affectations, nose-rings, bindi/tilaki, etc). Yes, it may not be fair, but that's the way it is...

To get to the interview, the biggest factor is your GPA. The university name does count, but if the employer has come to your school to interview, then your school's eligibility is not in question.

I know that when I was interviewing for entry-level engineers, we would draw up a list of about ten schools (two weeks of interviewing). These were not necessarily the elite Engineering schools. Then select students to interview based on their resumes. GPA was the biggest factor, followed by whatever else caught our eye on the resume, prizes in Engineering contests, evidence of wide interests or learning (for me, anyone taking Philosophy, Latin, or Russian Literature automatically got an interview).
