Tattoo Censorship

Posted by Mark

I spotted the magazine above with tattoos marked over with a black marker. Don’t think I’ve ever seen tattoo’s censored before, boobs and ankles yes but not tattoos.

    censorship in Kuwait is based on the mood of the censor. Clearly there are no set standards for censorship in Kuwait.

    Maybe the tatoo itself was considered offensive

    Sometimes I think these are sensored by the stores themselves.

    The censors board in Kuwait is freakin’ imbecile!
    They are part contributory to the dumbing down of Kuwait. The board has to be exterminated before it exterminates the remnants of civilised life, as we know it today.
    I suggest an all expenses paid holiday for them in Cancun, Vegas and St. Tropez :)

    tatoos are haraam and they are against the moral standards of kuwait…it is a strange phenomenon ;)

    does this sound familiar?
