I am thinking about getting another tattoo, but I am unsure if it is correct for me to do or not so I would like to have everyones opinion.
I would like to get a Shamrock tattoo, green of course, with the saying Fir Na Tine above the Shamrock.
Now the tattoo is not my dilemma, the fact that I am german is.
Is it ethically correct for me to get a tattoo that is Irish, when I am German? The fact that I am a man of fire which is what Fir Na Tine stands for is the reason that I want to do this.
I think that the Shamrock should go with it because of the saying.
Please let me know what you think
Thanks to all
