Rick, I appreciate your comments and the thought behind them. I'm not sure if my comments exclude me from the "One sub set that ...includes civility and respect for diverse opinions no matter how meatheaded you think the other guy is. It's a good sub set to belong to." I would like to think that I am included in that sub set and I strive to be tolerant and treat people with respect. However, when others are judgemental and make blanket statments about people they don't know and clearly don't understand, I feel that I have the same right to speak my mind. If that is seen as not being civil or respectful...my sincere apologies. But, is it more offensive to judge people or call someone on that type of behavior? I'm not looking argue or to change anyone's mind here about tattoos, art or glamour, only to suggest that EVERYONE keep respect in mind and go easy with the judgements. This is the place I go to learn and enjoy other's work not be taught what is and isn't acceptable in society OR in photography.
