Editor: Re: Don’t judge moms for their tattoos, Mommy’s Grounded, Sept. 13.
I was struck to read in Bianca Bujan’s Mommy’s Grounded column that a social networking page disparaging tattoo-wearers was removed as “hate speech.”
While I have no objections whatsoever to people getting tattoos if they want, I am amazed at the double-standard in our society under which objecting to tattoos is branded “hate speech” while the denouncing of nudity - the natural state for our species - as perverted exhibitionism doesn’t just find expression on web postings, but is endorsed by the laws of the land.
