24 Percent Between 18-50 Tattooed

My Way News - Survey: 24 Percent Between 18-50 Tattooed
The American University employee is among about 36 percent of Americans age 18 to 29 with at least one tattoo, according to a survey.

The study, scheduled to appear Monday on the Web site of the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, provides perhaps the most in-depth look at tattoos since their popularity exploded in the early 1990s.

The results suggest that 24 percent of Americans between 18 and 50 are tattooed; that’s almost one in four. Two surveys from 2003 suggested just 15 percent to 16 percent of U.S. adults had a tattoo.

I read that as “24% of Americans have 18-50 tattoos” and I was like what?!
Fark Convo gets the usual “tattoos are ugly and people with them are stupid” comments, but there are some cool tat pics in there as well
