Tattoos are a form of self-expression and assert self ownership and bodily autonomy. Some people get tattoos that have symbolic meaning to them (be it culture, to remember the dead, etc). Some people just enjoy the painful sensations of getting tattooed and the endorphins and adrenaline rush that comes with it. People get tattoos for many reasons: for attention, self-expression, artistic freedom, rebellion, a visual display of a personal narrative, reminders of spiritual/cultural traditions, sexual motivation, addiction, identification with a group or even drunken impulsiveness
