I started dating my husband after we had been friends for about 7 years. By the time I was doing a tattoo, and he (as he lived in Kaliningrad) was only a small tattoo. Now we zakaverili it made him a tattoo on both legs and two half sleeves. That is, in our family we do not mind the tattoo.
But if I was to meet with the man, and he would have forbidden me to do a tattoo - I would be surprised. Even more surprised if he had said that he would leave me if I do a tattoo (such story I heard from customers). This is my body and my decision. Certainly nice when your husband or wife support your hobbies.
But categorically forbid something in this regard - I personally think is very wrong. This is a direct blackmail turns.
