Speaker 1: That mentioned Laura, you guys know me very well better
Speaker 1: than anyone, and you'll know that it's not often I
Speaker 1: get mad, but today I am mad. So Laura and
Speaker 1: I were discussing on our podcast Life Uncut. We're discussing
Speaker 1: tattoos and like, if your partner gets a tattoo, do
Speaker 1: you are you allowed to give an opinion? Can you
Speaker 1: decide together? Et cetera, et cetera. Anyway, I woke up
Speaker 1: and this is the headline on the Daily Mail today
Speaker 1: Bold headline Brittany Hockley has fight with boyfriend Benjamin Sigres
Speaker 1: after she makes a demand about his body. But is
Speaker 1: she in the right? So I demand about his body?
Speaker 1: That's what pissed me off, then it says Brittany Hockley
Speaker 1: revealed on Life on Cut podcast this week, they have
Speaker 1: been arguing about tattoos. Incorrect, explaining her situation to Laura Byrne,
Speaker 1: that's true. She disagreed with Benjamin's taste in body art,
Speaker 1: and Bold also demanded that he get tattoos only that
Speaker 1: she likes incorrect. Laura immediately interrupted her, correct, arguing that
Speaker 1: checks out, yeah, arguing that ben.
Speaker 2: Should get whatever tattoo he wants. It's his body.
Speaker 1: This goes on to talk about how Laura says that
Speaker 1: I don't understand how controversial it is to make demands
Speaker 1: over people's bodies. This is so inaccurate, and I want
Speaker 1: to have a discussion about it because this came. I
Speaker 1: would hate for people to think that I'm demanding anything
Speaker 1: of my partner's body. Ben, my beautiful boyfriend, wants to
Speaker 1: get a tattoo, and he wants to make sure I
Speaker 1: like it.
Speaker 2: Seem as though I have.
Speaker 1: To look at it every day for the rest hopefully
Speaker 1: of our life.
Speaker 2: I think that is fine. At the end of the day.
Speaker 2: The kid can get what he wants. He's not a kid,
Speaker 2: but sure can. But it's you know, it's colleaquialism.
Speaker 3: Laura, hey, kid, hold on, what was the discussion of
Speaker 3: the tattoo? What does he want to get?
Speaker 2: So we just we like different things in tattoos.
Speaker 1: He likes really big, dark, bold portrait style, you know,
Speaker 1: like he has a Gladiator tattoo on him because it's
Speaker 1: his favorite movie. So yes, he has Russell Crowe's face
Speaker 1: on his leg, things like that. I don't like big
Speaker 1: portrait tattoos. I like quite fine, line, thin ones.
Speaker 2: So he's got a.
Speaker 3: Life Russell on his CAF.
Speaker 4: But I mean, it's just it was more a discussion
Speaker 4: around him saying, hey, I like this tattoo. What do
Speaker 4: you think? And you said, I don't really like it?
Speaker 4: What do you think of this one? It was a
Speaker 4: discussion around what he might get as a tattoo.
Speaker 1: One hundred percent, And now it's kicked off this discussion
Speaker 1: about like is it okay to put your two cents
Speaker 1: in about your partner's tattoo. Now I stand by the
Speaker 1: fact that yes, I think it is okay, especially if
Speaker 1: your partner has come to you.
Speaker 2: And said do you like this?
Speaker 1: Ben has said, I only want to get something that
Speaker 1: we both like, like having a kid's name, right, you both.
Speaker 2: Want to agree to it?
Speaker 4: Oh? I mean like, firstly, I don't. I wouldn't be
Speaker 4: getting too hung up on what the udiation. Oh I
Speaker 4: am I can tell I am hard. I think that
Speaker 4: they hit a nerve and that's okay. I think it's
Speaker 4: a bit unfair how they're are like weaponizing this idea
Speaker 4: of body or autonomy, Like, of course people can do
Speaker 4: whatever they want to their own body, that's obvious. But
Speaker 4: the conversation that you were having was him coming to
Speaker 4: you and being like, this is a consideration. It was
Speaker 4: a conversation. Whereas in my situation, my husband has gone
Speaker 4: to go get a tattoo of a running turtle on
Speaker 4: his ass because he lost a bet. And I don't
Speaker 4: get any saying that, wow, he's just off to go
Speaker 4: and get a tattoo of a turtle. I guess.
Speaker 1: I guess. The thing is, if it's on your butt, right,
Speaker 1: you don't ever have to really look at it. No
Speaker 1: one else has to see it. What do you think, Mitch,
Speaker 1: Would you go get a tattoo without consulting your partner
Speaker 1: knowing that they're gonna have to look at it forever? No?
Speaker 3: I wouldn't. No, But also my body functuates. I mean
Speaker 3: my tattoo would be tiny, the big Yeah, I couldn't do.
Speaker 2: I've got a stupid one on my side.
Speaker 4: No, But I mean, look, I think most people would
Speaker 4: consult their partners before they went. Not everyone. Some people
Speaker 4: have got lots and therefore it's not a big deal.
Speaker 4: But I think most people before they go and get
Speaker 4: something permanently on their body would at least ask their
Speaker 4: partner if they if they cared or they liked it.
Speaker 4: Just to get some feedback all.
Speaker 2: Of a sudden.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with someone
Speaker 3: who turns up with a neck tattoo at dinner and
Speaker 3: I go, oh, how was your day? You clearly wear Yeah,
Speaker 3: I go neck tattoo. I'd be like red flag I
Speaker 3: want to do It's an open discussion.
Speaker 1: I feel like it doesn't need like I don't need
Speaker 1: to spout the fact that, of course your body is
Speaker 1: your body and you can do what you want.
Speaker 2: It's not about that.
Speaker 1: It's it's also like you don't come home right and
Speaker 1: say to your partner, hey, pack up, we're going and
Speaker 1: you moving to New York tonight, got a job without
Speaker 1: you knowing, Like in a relationship, I just think they're
Speaker 1: things that you discussed together.
Speaker 4: Okay, but what if you came home with two nipple piercings.
Speaker 2: He'd probably be turned on.
Speaker 1: He'd be like, maybe you can do that any day
Speaker 1: of the week.
Speaker 4: All right, Well, coming up. I want to know what
Speaker 4: is when it comes to toilets, and I don't want
Speaker 4: this to get to when it comes to toilets. I
Speaker 4: want to know what is the public toilet etiquette, because
Speaker 4: when you have kids, you end up spending a lot
Speaker 4: of time in public toilets unfortunately.
Speaker 2: And I have a few thoughts, Oh, do you need
Speaker 2: some lessons in toilet matam is toilets.
Speaker 3: We can take you to the office.
Speaker 2: And show you if we can do it in the
Speaker 2: break if you want.
Speaker 3: Yeah, good man. We don't do it on the radio,
Speaker 3: but it's your airtime.
Speaker 2: So you wipe front to back. See this is the problem.
Speaker 3: People do things differently.
Speaker 1: You can't do back to front. Some people stand up,
Speaker 1: you know you actually can't. You can't wipe the poop
Speaker 1: from the back to the front. You can get very
Speaker 1: unwell from that.
Speaker 3: I've got different bits to you.
Speaker 4: There we go, all right, coming up next.
Speaker 3: I can't wipe this riveting discussion on the peace got
Speaker 3: my fees.
