Nothing aggravates me more than seeing a non-Polynesian with a traditional Polynesian tattoo. We see many people get these tattoos because it looks appealing to the eyes or because Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has it. But many people don't know how disrespectful it can be in more ways than one. The sacred Polynesian tattoo known as a tatau is of great significance to our Polynesian ancestors who have sacrificed many things. So a non-Polynesian getting a traditional tattoo is demeaning the sacrifices and traditions of our ancestors. Behind every tatau is a great meaning, a story. Hence another reason why it is so disrespectful to receive one is that it's the stealing of another's story. We have many different types of amazing tribal tattoos. It varies from the Maori people, Hawaiian people, Samoans, Tongans and even the Marquesan people. We all have a different meaning but the same purpose to serve our family tradition.
