Psychology of tattoos

I know I am probably trying to make sense of nonsense.

I googled "psychology behind Dora the Explorer tattoo" and got nothing. I would think that an 18 yo woman who was getting a tat would want something that looked sexy, or girly, or tough, or maybe had some "deep" intellectual meaning. I can't figure out why she would get a gigantic pre-school cartoon on her back. On twitter she said something about getting the tat because her friend is in a coma at the hospital. Her logic is like a Salvador Dali painting. Only without the complexity. Maybe we should get her to take an IQ test, I would hate to think that we are giving her a hard time if she has an extremely low IQ or something.

lol, that's cool, I can't figure them out either. The skids always call and email about how there is no food or they are going to be evicted and have no clothes, then we send a lot of money and this is what they do with it. maybe she should have got a tattoo of Dora flipping the bird because it feels like that is what she is doing.

My sister was 22 when she got a hello kitty tattoo, course it was a punk hello kitty, it had meaning for her, maybe Dora represents the adventurer in her, or the intelligence level she has?

She doesn't talk to me but apparently it has something to do with a boy she likes being in a coma.
