I make judgements about people with face tattoos, do you?

I've no idea. I knew a couple a decade ago who were nice, but I'm in the UK, and if OP is elsewhere it may differ.
Both my arms are sleeved and I have several tats on my legs/feet. That said I live by the logic you should be able to cover all your tats by wearing a suit or long sleeve dress shirt. Of course I work in the corporate world as a controller, so I don't show my tats at work ever. There are people I've worked with for almost 10 years that have no idea I have any tats. That said even if it didn't matter work wise, I still would never get a face or neck tattoo. I just don't like them. That said hand tattoos? If I could I would already have both hands tatted.
Also I hired a financial accountant last year that had a few tats that she didn't bother hiding during the interview. I don't think it was a smart move by her. In the end she just got lucky it was me that interviewed her and I could have cared less.

No. I guess it depends on how often you're exposed to something, but believe it or not some people don't give a shit about them. Shocking I know, but it happens.
I always love those stick and poke tattoos people get. If I see someone with the Black Flag bar logo or the Crass ouroboros, they're usually good people.
Consciously or subconsciously you are still making judgement calls. Everybody is. Its how we are hardwired as human beings.
I am guilty of judging people's face tattoos.
I auto-assume meth was involved during their decision making process.

Not having a tattoo is the new tattoo.
This. That's my judgement. Starts and ends there.

Nah. The parameters of said judgment are decided by society.
I personally am not a fan of face tattoo's, but if it is done well, I don't judge.
I just judge people that get badly done tattoo's. Like a lot of famous people. There are so many amazing tattoo artists, I can't understand people cheapening out on it and being stuck with a badly done tattoo.
It's clear also a lot of people here don't know anyone with tattoo's.

Indeed, and I judge people via their behaviour rather than the way they look.
I know i probably shouldn't but i do the same, if its stupid i make a pretty snap decision on how that person makes life choices if they have a ridiculous tattoo on their face like that idiot who got a Harry Styles tattoo on their face! my instanct reaction would be that they are a complete idiot who would happily make a life changing decision for attention.
But generally? i probably still do for a second or two but my rational mind corrects that
It's neck tattoos of names that cause my judgement. Mostly because it weirds me out that anyone would want someone else's name on such a visible part of their person.
Well I suppose so, but you aren't really saying anything at all. My point is that you are judging people all the time from a variety of factors but one of the biggest ones is the persons face.
Again i think its more about the tattoo itself over it being on the face.
I mean the gentleman that posted the pic of his face tattoo was for his tribe. Why would his be considered okay while if i get a little anchor under my eye I'm consider taboo?

I am saying something, you missed it man. I'm saying face judgments don't have to include character assumptions from tattoos.
I've no issue at all with body art by body part. However, depending on the tattoo itself, I may judge it as aesthetically pleasing, interesting or not very appealing.
It is your body and your choice, but some things done for aesthetic reasons just end up not looking very good.

Meh, I could see him working competently in an office.
if they're part of a tribe, i won't.
i don't judge in the strictest sense, i just don't think it looks very good. i'm all for expression, though. i just think it doesn't look good. doesn't help that you can't take tattoos off easily like you would clothing - i think i tend to put myself in their shoes and just say oh god no. heh.

I wouldn't judge it, cause i just don't care what other people do with their bodies, it's their choice. Btw, i never really understood this concept of judging someone? How does it work exactly, or rather how do people feel judging someone else? Superior?
ps: there are some small face-tattoos i really like, like with this guy

First thing that comes to mind is, Why? I have a tattoo in my left arm and i will have more soon but in the face? I have yet to see one that looks cool. When i decided i esnted a tattoo i knwe i wanted to be visible most of the time but the face is just too much
Is it? I mean, i get liking or disliking something, or saying this is not me, not my taste or whatever, but judging i don't really get. So that's why i'm trying to understand why some people really enjoy judging, it must give them something, doesn't it?
The only people I see with face tattoos are rap artists or counter-culture types. I rarely come across them in real life and the times I have were always social contexts.
I understood that reference.
Well, the least that could be said is that person either really cares about what people think or the exact opposite. There is no in-between with a face tattoo. They also probably don't plan much.
The only way I'm getting a face tattoo is if it's post apocalyptic and I become a badass warlord or something.
This.
I like tattoos but absolutely loathe face tattoos. I just think they are ugly but each to their own I guess.
No, I get what you're saying.
You're question just struck me as a bit naive.
The act of people judging each other is as old as humankind itself. Many of its roots are unconscious as it can be a survival mechanism (fight or flight).
Doesn't mean there aren't learned responses that are unproductive such as various social prejudices. But to question the very nature of judgement itself just seems weird.
Legit, nothing personal though!
If I judge, it's that they have a poor sense of priorities/foresight, not that they are necessarily dirty/untrustworthy/a criminal. It's like getting your first girlfriend's name tattooed on your chest in bold. Except it's not concealable. And could heavily affect the kind of positions you can obtain in the work force.
Is it fair that you can be judged harshly by society for having a face tattoo? No, but it's also not fair that I can be judged harshly for being a Black man and the children of immigrants. The difference is that I didn't choose my ethnicity on what was essentially a whim.

Haha, probably it is a bit weird, i don't know why, but there are still some emotions i can't fully comprehend xD, but thanks for explaining it.
Years ago I was invited to a party back in my neighborhood and a friend of mine introduced me to a guy who had gotten a massive "Ten-Shin-Han after using marijuana" third eye in his forehead. I was at the peak of my laid-back youth, and as a sociologist I was trained to deconstruct most prejudices... but I couldn´t avoid to think about the life possibilities he had destroyed for himself with that mere tattoo.
I just saw a guy with several face tattoos, including "forsaken" on his cheek and "Hell hath no fury" on his forehead. I wonder when he decided to give up on his life.
