What is acceptable in our culture compared to others? (example) In America, tattoos are pretty common, but in Japan you don't usually see someone in a bath house covered in tattoos. Some times it might be religion & beliefs...
PLEASE GIVE ME SOME EXAMPLES!?!

As I understand it, those who do are the Yakuza, and people at the bathhouse give them a wide birth. In Australia, the alchohol culture is as follows: Getting seriously wasted on ' the piss' ('booze' in Australian) is virtuous. Indeed the more 'pissed' you are the greater the acomplishment. Getting really pissed is equivalent to say, winning an event in the olympics, and is met with the same compassionate enthusiasm. How is it in America?
