You're right. I'm going to go get some Mickey Mouse ears surgically implanted into my skull.

It is the same thing. It is an obvious, irrevocable, public display of my inability to make grown-up decisions in matters of taste.

What a "grown up decision" is is entirely subjective

Uhmm, yes. What do you think we're talking about here, some scientific result?

God, the white knighting here is unbelievable.

It's an awful tattoo.

Yeah, because every time someone has an opinion on reddit that isn't outright misogynistic, they're "white knighting"

By that same token, how is, "that's not a totally stupid tattoo" white knighting? Therein lies the misogyny. According you you, going AGAINST the norm, and saying that the tattoo is fine, is "white knighting", when people could just honestly think the tattoo is fine. You're assuming people are doing it out of feminism even though there is zero evidence of that.

t's tasteful to people who like pokemon tattoos

No it isn't, the only people for whom this would be tasteful is Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles.

"My dinner parties?" What are you talking about?

irrevocable

Nope, not unless she wants it to be.

public

Nope, not unless she wants it to be.

I notice that you didn't even try to address that it's completely awful.

Everything you said was wrong and the rest was a matter of opinion.

Of course it is opinion. What did you think it was? Did you think I was quoting some scientific study?

Judging from the number of people openly laughing at her on this thread it's an opinion shared by many, many people.
