A I can tell yo is those are ugly as Hell. If you are good looking and get one of those, you turn yourself ugly. Not a good deal.

[Spruce]

Looks like a damn fool

[Trillian]

They need to stop using electricity, the internet, indoor plumbing (and pretty much most things) then. That tattoo is hideous no matter who has it.

[Drew68]

Looks awful but at the same time, I’m getting tired of this “cultural appropriation” nonsense.

"“It’s not acceptable … You can only have it if you have a genealogy that is Maori,” "

No, what is not acceptable is jerkholes who think they have the right to control other people's lives based on their own neurotic moralist interpretive psycho-babble. How about you eff off and MYOFB.

We called this YEARS ago.

No more melting pots.

Balkanization all around, because from that chaos you can achieve power.

“I do think there’s a level of cultural appropriation and I do think there’s a level of white privilege that’s being displayed here, and I think we need to be really cautious about that,” Mera Lee-Penehira, an associate professor at Te Whare Wananga o Awanuiarangi, a New Zealand university, told BBC.

I hope Dr. Lee-Penehira hasn't appropriated anything from any cultures other than her own--like speaking the English language, or teaching at a New Zealand university, or getting paid in New Zealand currency, or using electricity, or wearing jackets for self-promotional interviews. . ..

No going to Mexican restaurants either. If you're white, all you can do is go to The Gap.

[Delta 21]

The self identification continues.

[Moltke]

Jay Leno just called...he wants his chin back...sans tattoo, of course.

And not that I would know what a "life coach" does (what, breathing instructions?), but I'm glad I have no use for one.

“The blonde, blue-eyed white woman is reportedly married to a Maori man”

Well, you could say she has a little Maori in her.

[donna]

What percentage of Maori must she be before it is okay?

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Why does white trash seem to flock to savage cultures?

They were born into a semi-modern culture with halfway decent values, and they’d prefer barbarianism.

[lee martell]

It looks like the wearer is drooling lines of dark blue ink.
Not at all attractive, but guess what? These are adults who have made that personal choice. We don’t have to ‘like it’.

While in public, I often see women with strangely bright, candy colored hair.
Do you think I’m going to say anything about it?
Hell no! That’s what some of them want. They bait you into making a statement, which allows them to express their independence from ‘The Patriarchy’.

[marron]

Appropriating what we like from other cultures, is our culture. Its who we are. You don’t get to judge me.

[GreenHornet]

some are saying it's offensive on the grounds of cultural appropriation.

No, it's offensive on the grounds that it looks ridiculous.

[Boogieman]

“Sally Anderson, a life coach, reportedly got the tattoo as an homage to New Zealand’s indigenous Maori culture...”

Should have just been honest. She got it to distract people from her huge honker.

[Anti-Bubba182]

It’s her Stoopid Mark!

[FroedrickVonFreepenstein]

If your life coach gets a chin tattoo, you’ve chosen poorly.
