Wow, realy? they try to ban tattoos on the beach? where is that?
In Kamakura, a beach town an hour from downtown Tokyo, Japan. Clearly the rule was not being enforced this week.
still Wow… this is a kind of discrimination I just can’t believe!:(
I’m from europe, having about 10 Tattoos (they are becoming more and more). And so many young, old and realy old people have tattoos here. No one would ever even think of banning them from the beach because there is no reason to justify such thing.
Or is there a reason why they think this is necessary? Any background?
Do you have any tat’s? Is it true that tattoos aren’t that accepted in Japan like Europe & America?
I’m just curious. Tattoos here are very popular and common.
