Ans: I would feel that it is very disgusting and think that the person is not someone that will be more toward the positive.

(b) Would you consider getting a tattoo in future? Why?

Ans: No, I would never consider getting a tattoo in the future as I love to stay as nature as I can be. Having a tattoo is also creating a bigger risk as it will create a permanent scar, wound and may even cause internal bleeding where blood vessels and nerves may get damaged.
