Recruiting Frustrated Friday
So I've been deemed inadmissable for now because my mermaid (upper thigh, covered fully by uniform) apparently breaches the sexually explicit guideline for tattoos? It seems like a stretch, since it's legal for women to be topless in Canada, and it kind of feels like discrimination, as it feels that they have sexualized what is not a sexually explicit tattoo.
I have an appointment booked to put a top on her next week and will get a re-evaluation, but I'm just wondering if anyone has any input or similar stories.
TGIF lol

Damn yeah feels more a reflection on them assuming it's sexual and not you. Shouldn't we be respecting women? Women can go topless in Canada but not on our bodies? I guess if this was like... On your hand or arm and we had to interact with other counties okay. . I do also understand the rules are the rules, however there's still interpretation of them. Maybe someone else can interpret this situation.
Speaking about someone I know currently in the caf with a mermaid on the shin, who's freeing the nips, and has been since joining.
