Why are there not many American or ATP players with tattoos?

Super cool. If strangers threaten their livelihood, the Dayak people would cut their heads off.

Following their ill treatment by the Japanese, the Dayak of Borneo formed a force to help the Allies. Australian and British special operatives of Z Special Unit developed some of the inland Dayak tribesmen into a thousand-strong headhunting army. This army of tribesmen killed or captured some 1,500 Japanese soldiers.
Did they tattoo their war prisoners, in case they took them?
 
About 20 years ago my father in law found marijuana leaves on his property. He was sure the culprit had to be the guy with the motorcycle and tattoos down the street.

As much as I wanted to let my FIL know that people don't even smoke the leaves anymore, they smoke the sticky flowers, I didn't want to have to explain how I knew this (degenerate pothead in college lol).

FIL calls the cops so they come out to take a report on the giant pot stash (like 4 leaves) and suspicions about the tatted up neighbor.

Turns out the 'marijuana leaves' were actually Japanese Maple leaves from a different neighbor's yard! :-D

Moral of the story: don't get tats, they lead to drug dealing and motorcyles.

What? I thought that people from the 19th century never used tattoos. Except for those from non Western cultures.
No U.S. President has been confirmed. Only rumours of tattoos.
One cannot imagine a Queen having one.
King Charles does not. A few Kings have had one. But it is extremely rare.
  1. King Harold II: He is the first known British royal to have tattoos. Harold Godwinson, who reigned briefly in 1066, reportedly had two tattoos that were used to identify his body after his death at the Battle of Hastings. The tattoos read "Edith" and "England," symbolizing his wife and country.
  2. King George V: While serving in the Royal Navy, he got a tiger tattoo on one arm and a dragon on the other during a visit to Japan in 1881.
 
The answer is yes, there are a few known tattooed U.S. presidents: Andrew Jackson (7th, 1829–1837), James K. Polk (11th, 1845–1849), and Dwight D. Eisenhower (34th, 1953–1961) were rumored to have tattoos.
But 26th President Theodore Roosevelt (1901–1909) was the only U.S. President to have a confirmed tattoo. Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt had gunpowder tattoos that he accidentally inflicted on himself as a 13-year-old boy.

Rumours. Not confirmed. A tattoo is an intentional work of art. A gunshot wound does not really qualify as a tattoo.

While it is rumored Andrew Jackson had a large tattoo of a tomahawk on his thigh, he also lived with a bullet lodged in his chest for much of his life due to a duel.
This could metaphorically be described as an "accidental tattoo," as the presence was a result of gunfire.

Most of my friends that have tats hide them in places that can’t be seen, like on their back, shoulder, chest, etc that is not really seen with clothes on.
 
Ban all tattoos except Wawrinka's
There shouldn't be any exceptions.
If they are going to be banned, all of them should be.
Besides, who knows if tattooed substances are more than ink, being really a disguised PED that can't be detected in the lab analyses? Just to make sure.

That's a classic tactic. Tattoos are so bad, that many people are afraid of openly showing them, behaving with utmost insincerity.

You have clearly not met many Chilean women.
I have met several Chilean women. None of them was tattooed, at least in visible parts.
I have to say that I didn't ask if they were tattooed in not visible parts because it was hard to bring that matter up in casual conversation.

Some people are so guilty of admitting they tattooed voluntarily, that they inflict gunshot wounds on themselves, or pay others for the job.

Research should be done if they have hidden tattoos (perhaps hidden under their clothes).

That'll show him, haha. The king of Denmark (Frederik X) has a tattoo, and so did his grandfather (Frederik IX). Quite a few, actually.

Cool. Wow He and Queen Mary look so much older now. I didn't realise she's 52 now.

This says more about your high character than it does about Chilean women.
 
Felix is very knowledgeable on ATP tattoos! He said he knows so much because he often see them in the locker room. I guess his eyes like to wander lol.

Surprising that some players don't know Dan Evan's star tattoos on his leg. It's always visible on TV. I have no idea about Norrie's Argentinian tattoo.

I will try one last time. In your opinion, what is the percentage of adult women who wear lipstick, obviously not at home?
The ones who work in banks, car dealers or airplanes usually wear lipstick and makeup. The ones who work at supermarket don't usually wear lipstick.
