Tattoos
This is my first post so …. You know, I remember when I first started working out. I was in high school (20 years ago!)and bodybuilding was different. Tattoos were looked at as taboo, the only pro I remember having one was Berry DeMEy and even that caused a stir back then. Now they have become more acceptable. It is actually nice to see pros with them, people actually realise now that they can look good on a person, and the average Joe (or Joanne) can now were them with pride. It’s nice to see society has opened up about something and hopefully this level of acceptance will continue in the future.

I’m not a tattoo kind of guy myself, but they certainly are popular. Your mention of Berry DeMey certainly brought back memories. I forgot about the fuss made about his tattoo, but I do remember in college it seemed that a lot of the girls had his poster up in their dorm rooms! One of the reasons I started working out much more seriously in college - though I never looked like him. Keep up the great work yourself!
