Good reasons to get tattoos

To the editor:In response to the letter "Removing tattoos costs a lot": I have no regrets in getting a tattoo. Have you ever asked someone about his tattoo? Many of us who make the choice to get one do it because it represents an event in our lives or it's in memory of someone. My tattoos are not vulgar or offensive. Would I get another one at some point? Yes. By the way, I'm a 50-year-old woman.
