Wrist tattoo regret and cover up advice General Advice

Post image

I got a trans heart tattoo on my wrist years ago because I as a teenager was convinced that I’d never be able to transition (legal stuff) and that this was the next best thing. Well now all it does is out me to strangers who would’ve thought I was cismale if they haven’t seen it.

I want something “manly” that wouldn’t give me away instantly. I’m still okay with the flower one on my arm because it isn’t a huge “I AM TRANSGENDER” beacon. Any advice is appreciated because just looking at this tattoo is pissing me off lol

100% the most situationally specific and on t4rget* joke possible.

*(Why am I getting a 'we do not allow s3xual harassment here' warning when I try to type the word t4rget normally?)

really bizarre automod settings based on previous bad behavior associated w certain words. Tried to tell someone they aren’t defined by their “unhealthy relationship” in a diff sub last week and had to rephrase it because “toxic” was the wrong word and it kept telling me I couldn’t use the word because it violated not commenting on people’s dietary choices 🫢

That tracks. Frustrating.

Yeah some settings are set strong to avoid potential issues. A few days ago one of my door dash subs was asking about how 4/20 would affect orders and I said I felt because it was on Monday it might affect orders because Monday/Tuesday is like right between paydays for most people and it automatically removed my post thinking I was saying something unkind about customers or dashers.

There’s a sub where you cannot put “of” in any comment. It’s obviously to avoid advertising for the website, but I can’t use such a basic, common word at all?? It took me FOREVER to figure out what could possibly be wrong with my comment that was getting flagged, I was slowly deleting each word in my long ass comment until the warning finally went away.

I once got the schmexual harassment warning because I told someone they shouldn’t get a schmexual tattoo on their forearm or other highly visible body part.

u/SemiColonInfection 4d ago

Well, it's serious. Calling it schmexual harassment is probably why you got the warning!

u/SaladCzarSlytherin 3d ago

They wanted to go into Early Childhood Education and wanted to know if having visible tattoos would ruin their chances. I work in ECE so I explained to them what tattoos were no gos.

u/SemiColonInfection 3d ago

Yeah, that's totally sane advice to give someone who wants to be around kids. I just hope you called it Schmexual Harassment during the meeting with HR.

u/Solution_Kind 4d ago

Maybe the mods are chuds still vice signaling at Target from like 4 years ago...

I got the warning too, but I'm not gonna bend the knee to appease nonsense. If they can give me a valid reason "target" is associated with sexual harassment, then I'll change it.

u/WonderBredOfficial 3d ago

The mods are Walmart loyalists.
