Don’t judge a book by its cover. This very principle applies
to people too. So many companies state that they do not discriminate based on
age, race, gender, sexual orientation etc. However, they seem to have no
problem discriminating against people with tattoos, piercings, or other forms
of body art. Understandably, the validity of a clean, well-kept image is what
some companies look for in their representatives. However, not hiring someone
simply because they have tattoos is not only discrimination; it is assuming
that they are incapable of performing the job tasks. Simply because a person
has tattoos doesn’t mean they can’t do they job just as well as - if not better
than - employees without tattoos. It is a person’s birth-right to express themselves
in any way they find pleasing. In a point of view look at things, some people
consider tattoos, piercings, etc. to be beautiful, eye pleasing, and a form of self-expression.
Others may consider them degrading, unattractive, and self-mutilation. Looking
at both sides, it seems unfair to only enforce one point of view while completely
disregarding the other. The fact is, today tattoos are a large part of a
modern, cultural society.
