What's with the UPC code tattoo?

Came across this pic of Teagan Presley...

Wonder what she's selling? :-P
 
yeah. its a little weird but at the same time, everyone tends to have tattoos where it means something important to them, not necessarily for it to look good for someone's pleasure.
 
She works for an out call service...when she arrives you just scan her ankle to get the price :rolleyes:
 
Actually it's the modern version of an anarchy symbol.

Isn't it a punk symbol for the assimilation culture, and usually placed on the back of the neck? Its supposed to be a social commentary on people all being the same... although I guess it could also work on one's body being bought and sold. In which case, Teagan Presley is using it completely accurately...

I remember that Sci Fi TV show starring Jessica Alba where she was a genetically enhanced children that escaped from an evil corporation called Manticore (spelling?)... They all had UPC codes on the back of there necks too! :eek:

Not sure if it strictly a punk symbol but yes it denotes a rejection of mainstream culture (culture of assimilation). In hardcore metal culture people usually have the caption "a goat in a land of sheep" underneath it. Not sure if it applies to the "sex trade" but I guess it could.
 
Isn't it kind of moronic to be making a statement about consumerism when it's you who are wearing the bar code? :confused:
 
I wanted to get one on my butt so I could scan myself at various stores and find out my "worth" lol......
