Muslim girls start wearing head scarfs sometimes from the age of about 3 or so; they do in Thailand. I live in a very Muslim area.
In this example, I was reffering to Muslim high school girls in France who're being sent home from school for wearing a "religous symbol". The ban also covers stars of David, crosses, funny Jew hats, so on. But only the Muslim girls are the ones who're feeling exploited by the law; it is very important for them.

It's called social acceptance; indiscrimination. Obviously, if you live in Japan, you might want to think twice about getting tattoos because you're already aware of the social retardations. But for tourists or people on business runs who have heavy tattoos, they're going to be in for a very big shock at Japanese intolerance in some social settings. It will be unpleasant for them, even to the point where some people are going to have to consider not going to Japan, because their way of life is unacceptable.
