Country girls are taught manners by our parents and we don’t normally turn to drugs or into criminals-but if you want to call us low class, that is your prerogative.

I'm a country girl too, but wouldn't threaten to harm someone simply for being critical of my tattoos (which I don't have).

I share the other FReeper's opinion that tattoos are skanky and disgustingly ugly. No, I would never say so in public, because it's rude to try to embarrass anyone (I was taught manners too). But to me it's the brutal, honest truth. I'm not going to shy away from that.

The same would apply to women who have had abortions. I would never shame a woman in public for having had an abortion. But in a pro-family forum like FreeRepublic, you can bet I will voice my opinion that abortion is a terrible, horrendous, disgusting crime.

If a guy is critical of a woman’s tats or whatever, I doubt they would be harmed-that is just his opinion and we are all entitled to that. If he decided all on his own that it meant she was a skank and came on to her with attitude and insult, he would likely get a shove at the very least-no one I know will put up with that crap-it is something only a totally rude tourist would do.

I come from a large extended family-although I don’t have tats or a sibling with them, several of my male cousins have military and patriotic tattoos-a couple of my female cousins have small decorative ones, and although some family members don’t care for it, they don’t make it a big deal-it is just ink, and harms no one.

However, if a sibling or cousin supported abortion they would be banished from the family-if they ever got one they might well be taken behind a barn and shot when the rest of us found out-all of us, male and female alike were brought up believing abortion is murder...
