I think the popularity of tattoos has to do with the rise of expressive individualism, particularly among those of lower social class. Tattoos still are skewed heavily by social class. If wealthier people have tattoos, they tend to be discrete and concealed from ordinary viewing.
Not anymore.
20 years ago, what you said would be true.
But now with social media strongly pushing tattoo into mainstream, I'd be thinking anyone with tattoo is just like everybody else obsessed with fads.
