Woman hits back at older people for judging tattooed body

A young British woman is clapping back at the “older generation” who insist that when she’s 60, she’ll regret covering her body with tattoos.

Though she admits she’ll never “be the girl [men] take home to their parents,” Taylor Paige Courtenay says she loves her inked skin and warns users to keep their “opinions to themselves.”

Taylor Paige Courtenay, from South Devon, England, is challenging societal beauty norms and speaking out about the judgment she faces, particularly from the “older generation,” for her extensive tattoos.

The 27-year-old woman, who has body art covering her neck, arms, stomach, and legs, often describes her skin as a tapestry of memories and expressions, illustrating her belief in owning her story.

But being visibly tattooed comes with challenges, and the woman – who frequently boasts her scantily clad body on social media – is often seen addressing the negativity directed at her inked identity.
