Ok first of all in order to even argue this ridiculous point you have to argue the validity and definition of intelligence. Intelligence is not a quantifiable item and is perceived differently from culture to culture.
If you are using IQ as an indicator of intelligence you are about 30 years behind the times. The IQ test has been de-bunked so many times that the fact that people still refer to it is ludicrous.

I would say that once again what is the reason for the piercing/tattoo. If it is a cultural connection [a real one] that has been passed down to you I would respect it. If you are a Cadillac lover and like to wash and wax your Cadillac and then you go out and get a Cadillac tattoo your a moron.
If you have a koi fish on your body and have no familial connection with that culture and got it because you needed some filler between your Buddha statue [once again no connection] and your dragon [no connection] you are a super moron.

My tattoos mean a lot to me, even if they do look cliché. Honestly, my ink doesn't represent rebellion against "the man" or expression to show you who I really am. Simply a way for me to remember certain I never want to forget.
Taken when I first got it about five years ago. I've added more since...

what is your connection to the fish?
- It's genuinely personal and a simple description or explanation would be moot to anyone besides me. I love the way I feel with it and most people never realize I have tattoos unless I show them.JG_LB

and as for tattoos = unintelligence..
as far as i can see it, using any one defining feature of a person to classify intelligence seems to be to the biggest load of shit.tattoos are just expression, same as piercings, fashion and haircuts.
however, also like piercings, fashion and haircuts, there are people who have good tattoos, and those who have bad tattoos.
now what constitutes a bad tattoo, thats another thread altogether.
like this guy..
- exactly. ANYTHING could be an expression of a person.Jaline
- so to whittle it down, the argument is expression = unintelligence. nice place to air that concept, a design forum

for those of you who have tattoos, do you ever think there will come a time when you're just tired of looking at them?
- That's one of the reasons why I don't have one. Yet. I think I need to be a bit older to really know if I want one or not.Jaline
- (I get tired of things rather quickly)Jaline
- don't really think about it. i'm so used to them being there it's just like another body part7point34
- my tattoos have a lot of meaning to me. most of them represent defining aspects of myself and my family.mcLeod

Boy, its a good thing nobody gives a fuck what you think, eh tgqt? Its a personal choice made by everyone who has ink. Sure, some tattoos have deeper meaning than others, and some are just plain stupid. Does that mean you're allowed to shit on something you obviously know nothing about? Tattoos are a decision the person getting the ink decides, who the fuck are you to judge them, their intelligence or what they think is cool enough to put on their body?
Just because you're some loser trying to stir up a debate about something you obviously know nothing about, doesn't mean anybody cares what you think.I think pricks who like to preach bullshit like "tattoos = unintelligence" are a waste of air, so it must be true, right? Go the fuck away.

okay...hold on a second.
"Boy, its a good thing nobody gives a fuck what you think"
"you're some loser trying to stir up a debate"
Why the hostility? Imagine the glee I am feeling right now knowing you have several tattoos and are deeply offended by my opinion.
You totally care what i think, thats why you replied. Have a good one.

- no not deeply offended, amused that small minded people like you still exist in todays society.autoflavour
- yup, ive got piles, and there's meaning behind ALL of them. enjoy your day, douchebag.sintaxera

its amusing sometimes, peoples responses to tattoos..
some people are like "yep, i would want one, but i cant decide what to get" and others are "nup, i wouldnt get one because i wouldnt be able to decide"and then there are people who are too want one, but are too chickenshit to admit that they make a life long decision about something, so instead of dealing with their inadequacies, they start threads called tattoos = unintelligence
- can you revisit that one so I can understand what you are trying to say.tgqt

Sounds like maybe you had a bad personal experience with someone who has tatoos. Why don't you share it with us?
- scrap_paper0
In order to make the argument that tattoo's denote a lack of intelligence you have to first assume that intelligence is a quantifiable substance. It is not. You can't measure intelligence.
If you are saying that IQ is a measure of intelligence you are about 20-30 years behind the times.
Tattoo's are simply a form of self expression. They mean different things to different people. To some they are purely aesthetic to others they have deep cultural or personal meaning.

what else do you find makes people of low intelligence tgqt?
- race? sexuality? hair color?autoflavour
- Can one decide their actual race, sexuality, or hair color dummy? How many tats do you have? LOLtgqt
- that explains a lot about you, if you believe sexuality is purely a choiceautoflavour
- From what tgqt stated, he seems like he doesn't believe that sexuality is purely a choice.Jaline
