Woman hits back at older people for judging tattooed body
A young British woman, Taylor Paige Courtenay, is firing back at critics, particularly from the older generation, who claim she will regret her extensive tattoos when she turns 60. Courtenay, 27, who has body art covering her neck, arms, stomach, and legs, embraces her inked skin, calling it a “tapestry of memories.”
Despite often facing judgment, especially online, she stands firm, saying that her tattoos make her happy and that she doesn’t care about societal beauty norms. In a TikTok video, she expressed that she’ll never be “the girl” people take home to their parents but doesn’t mind.
Courtenay dismissed critics who warned that her tattoos would look bad as she ages, telling them to keep their opinions to themselves. While some online users criticized her appearance, others supported her confidence and self-expression. Despite the negativity, Courtenay has disabled comments on her social media and is now a proud mother to a child born in the summer of 2023.
