@undertherainjp thats very interesting! In sweden it’s so normal to get tattoos and if someone doesn’t give you a job because you have tattoos a lot would get mad!

I work for law enforcement and have a tattoo, which would feel very ironic when in Japan I’m sure because of the perception of crime related to tattoos. :)
I probably would not show my tattoo in Japan given this, and it is in a place that would be difficult to see.

That’s incredible. The most people younger than 40 are tattooed over here too and you can also find old people having tattoos these days as that trend started 30 or 40 years ago (not in the recent extent of course)

@Virginiah I lived in Japan for 3 years and have 2 tattoos. One visible and the other not. While there I did notice a lot of Japanese young people with tattoos so I don’t think it’s as taboo anymore. I had some issues going to certain onsens but most allow you if you’re a foreigner despite the tattoos (better to call them first though)

@undertherainjp So if I understand correctly, do you have all of America, Europe and Australia for criminals?

@Matthew291198 That is not what they said. It's probably just because of the vibes that person gives and because the Japanese are generally more modest. So even if tattoos are common in your country or mine, maybe a Japanese person would find them really daring!

If you’re not Asian and have a tattoo, they will just understand. They know it’s common in other countries.
If you’re an Asian and have like a big colorful tattoo, they won’t like you, because they will probably assume you are from Yakuza.
And if you’re an Asian with just like a small tattoo, it might be frowned upon by some people...even though it doesn’t mean anything...
And also, in big cities they accept tattoos much better than in small towns...

@Virginiah If you’re not Japanese, there shouldn’t be a problem, unless if you want to get in an onsen for example. There are onsens which refuse to have people in there with tattoos (remember that people are 100% naked in an onsen). There are also tattoo-friendly onsens though. There are also restaurants that might not want to serve you if you have a tattoo on full display. In that case, just cover it up with a shirt or a jacket or whatever or have your meal at an other restaurant. There is still a negative connotation regarding tattoos in Japan, because tattoos are associated with Yakuza and crime in general. But if you’re from an other ethnicity, you should be ok :)

@Virginiah a lot of Yakuza Japanese mafia have tattoos that's why they weren't tolerated cuz they would think ur part of the yakuza but these days tattoos have become fashion some teenagers have tattoos so I would say the younger generation accepts it well but the older generation doesn't
also some poeple won't rent u a house or apartment if u have tattoos.

Tattoos were considered symbolic of criminal or Yakuza in Japan. At one point, the convicts were also tattooed. Therefore, any person with a tattoo was considered a felon. But it's not the same today. Some onsens even allow tattooed people. The stigma around it has changed over the years.
