The tattoos don't validate that any more than a house full of fun cool cat toys does; it simply is the case. Media showing what a cool person you are is failing if the only thing it can come up with is that you have some interesting ink. When we work with someone like you, we try to make sure we take a more well rounded approach, talking about books you've written, musicians and friends you work and tour with, clubs you go out to, etc. So, maybe it's the model role that is flawed, in terms of media about cool interesting subculture. Being cool and interesting and culturally worthwhile is about a lot more than just skin art and what brand one's shoes are. We understand that, but a lot of people seem to miss that point these days.
