Jane Lopez B. HumSS 12-A After watching the video about Visayan Tattoo Art, I learned that early Visayans earned tattoos through acts of bravery and other significant experiences. The number of tattoos a person had reflected their perceived bravery. Furthermore, I learned that tattoos have different meanings; for example, in Egyptian culture, they are considered protective markings, especially for pregnant women. The video emphasizes the significance of tattoos and raises awareness that having a tattoo doesn't necessarily mean a person is rebellious. Instead, tattoos are a form of art with deeper meanings.
Today, tattoos are generally seen as a form of personal expression, and their popularity is on the rise. While there are still some who view tattoos with suspicion or disdain, they are becoming more and more mainstream, and their acceptance is growing. -Chad pacardo HUMSS 12 A

At first I really don't know what are the meanings behind every tattoos I have seen in our ancestors. I thought they were just do it because they want to or to have markings to know where or what tribes they belong but now I learned that it was deeper than that. I am amazed that it was not easy to have such a tattoo without any reasons behind it or achievement behind it unlike in todays world where tattoo is overrated and slowly losing the meaning of what tattoo really is. It's just awesome that back in the years people or tribes still appreciate the beauty of arts even though they only have limited access to art materials, as well as the appreciation to those who show bravery in some critical or hard circumstances. -Jo-ann D.

After learning about visayan tattoo art, I've realize that it has so many genres and how usually people cope and put masterpiece into it. Having this kind of learning makes me feel that our generation is really different from the past. Those markings that resembles their bravery, sailing and hunting so they can gain a tattoo is a sign of respect and braveness of people who are in a tribe. This is my first knowledge to know that every pattern they use have a meaning and purpose. For example if you win a war or you gain pride into your tribe makes you get a tattoo while in our generation we can put tattoo whatever and whenever we want with no sacrifices and hardship. Visayan tattoo art really amazed me of how brave they are to gain a tattoos with nature's and animals as a resemblance of their pattern and designs. JULIANA P. JUMBAS GRADE 12 HUMSS D

GERALDEN KAYE S. GUMBAN GRADE 12 HUMSS-D
After I’ve watched the video about Visayan Tattoo Art, I learned that each tattoo has it’s own meaning. There are example of tattoo mentioned like labid and bangut. Some tattoos applied on body parts. Such as dubdub for chest, daya daya for the arms and ablay for the shoulder. Different cultures that varying different perspectives on the significance of tattoo.

What I learned after watching this video is tattoos were valor symbols to males who performed in combat with fitting courage and they accumulated through additional feats. Depending on the region, tattoos were seen as a sign of bravery, a symbol of social standing, and a rite of passage. Visayan tattoo art, deeply rooted in the indigenous traditions of the Visayan people in the Philippines, holds a special place in their cultural identity.

It is a form of art that not only adorns the body but also serves as a visual storytelling medium, connecting individuals to their heritage and allowing them to proudly carry their cultural identity. -MIKHAELLA EVANGELISTA 12-HUMSS A
John Rey Sotelo 12-HUMSS A Tattoo isn't for addict. Many people seeing a person with tattoos would say they're addicts. In the pre colonial time tattoos express bravity. The more tattoos you have, you are a brave person. The tattoo is one important art in the early days until now for indigenous people. I testify tattoo is one of the way to recognize and respect you. Tattoo reflects us a rich culture in history.
-JATE VINCENT Z. MENDOZA HUMSS 12-A Tattoos have been a part of Philippine culture for centuries. In ancient times, ancestors used tattoos as symbols to represent their tribes, highlighting their identity as a group. However, in the modern era, tattoos have become a common way for individuals to express their appreciation for art. Tattoos today are not just random lines or symmetrical designs; each tattoo carries its own unique meaning, memories, and messages for the person who wears it. Many people get tattoos to remember shared experiences with loved ones, while others use them as a form of self-expression. Having tattoos does not define who you are, and often, people's perceptions of those with tattoos are completely different from their true selves.
Jonella F. Rodriguez 12 HUMSS-D Having tattoos are already exist in pre-colonial era. It's a kind of art and also part of our history. Every people had a reason why they have a tattoo because it symbolize bravery, art or even confidence. Just like Bella Poarch who decided to have tattoo to cover her scars caused by her traumatic experience when she was young. Some people mistaken that if a person are having tattoo they're a bad person. However, tattoo have different meanings on a person's body. Aside from art, it can also gain people's confidence.
Carla Jane Buenaflor HUMSS-C After watching this video, I realized that not all people that have a tattoos are rebellious or a bad people. In the Philippines tattoeng during the pre-colonial time were a wide spread tradition considered by the Filipinos. We shouldn't also judge people in terms of having a tattoos. I also realized, that we shouldn't based our judgement in terms on their appearance‚ and try to look at the other perspectives of that person before judging them. We may continue to spread our culture and bring tattoos to the next generation.
Tattoos is part of philippine culture and during old days ancestors once used tattoos as a symbol of their tribes which emphasize their identity as a gruop however in today's era tattoos is a normal way of expressing someone's facination about art and it not just a random lines . And symmetrical, symbols yet every tattoo conveys numerous message memories and means to those who have this many of use tattoos to remind. The memories they have shared with someone they love, some use tattoo because it's their way to express theirselves and having this doesn't define you as being and sometimes our perception to those who have tattoos is a direct opposite to their real selves Erica Jane S Pronda Humss- B
Krisha Berbano Humss 12-C After I watched this video I realized that having tattoos that's not mean that you are a bad person some other tattoos has a deep full meaning.In Pre-Colonial Time Early Visayans Tattoos are earn through acts of bravery some people have tattoos because it's part of their culture and also realized that now days people easily judge those people who have tattoos their first impression of having tattoos that's mean that you're also a bad person or an addict.
This video has made me realize that tattoos can be used as amulets, declarations of love, religious symbols, adornments, and forms of punishment. As amulets they served as both religious and protective symbols for the wearer and in some cases acted as a tribute to the gods. As Declaration of love serves as symbolism and a sense of belonging. As for religious symbols some people choose this kind of tattoos represent their own beliefs while otherschoose symbols they like without paying attention to their meanings. As adornments shows their bodies to indicate their job, their marital status,etc. Lastly as for punishment usually for criminals that words describing the nature of their crimes. inmates feel more positive about their bodies, are more assertive,uninhibited, and extroverted than nontattooed. It doesn't mean that if you have a tattoo, you're a bad person; people get tattoos for a variety of reasons, such as to commemorate happiness or sad memories. One of the most reasons for getting a tattoo is to improve one's self-esteem. People who feel good about themselves are more likely to want to express themselves through their appearance. To others tattoos is a form of art that can sometimes be used to change a person's look to match their style. Mary Chris Angelee Flor Humss 12-A
CHARISS SOBERANO HUMSS 12-C After watching this video , I realized that tattoos have different types of symbolizations and it doesn't mean that all people who have a tattoo is a bad person or a drug addict. Tattoo is an art and many people often think negatively towards people with inked skin. Now I know that early Visayan people believes that tattoos symbolizes the bravery of a person.
Erica L. Repaso 12 HUMSS C This vedio has made me realize that having a tattoo is not bad, having a tattoo doesn't define who you are. It's just a body decorations that shows the culture of our country.
JENNY BABE REYES HUMSS 12-B May reflection about the tattoos is people had tattoo is it's carries infinite meaning we don't need to judge it in the first place because not all people had tattoo is bad people, rebellious but tattoos is also like an art and it has a beautiful meaning of it.
Christine Joy Piabol Humss 12-C Nowadays, when you have a tattoo, people think you are an addict, but in the pre-colonial era, it was not because in that time, the tattoo for them was an art on their body and if they still tattooed, all of that had different meanings theirs and the others they do as a symbol of their culture.
Mae Ann L.Ducanes Humss12D My reflection about visayan tattoo is not all people that have their tattoos in their body look like a bad strangers sometimes people put tattoos to their body to empress or to bring back the cultures before,to see the other people what is the culture about the tattoos and to see how beautiful the tattoo is.
Jovytte J. Goco Humss 12 B Tattooing is a part of art. Its not because you have a tattoo that its bad, look at the assumption of a tattoo is an culture. I think that a person is not dirty if he has many tattoos because it is our decision for each other, not because we all are. Because we loved tattoos, we should respect people with tattoos, its not bad, its part of our art culture
Lianne Grace J. Hinlo 12-Humss A This vedio has made me realize that person having a tattoo doesn't define a bad person because if a person having tattoos can be used as declaration of love, bravery, inspiration, culture, courage etc. Furthermore, we must learn to analyze tattoos more, because sometimes these are lot of reasons and stories behind them.
ALEAH GRACE GARCIA HUMSS 12 A after i finish this video‚ i realized that are tattoo’s are literally called arts and traditional visayan is a symbol that you’re brave not a rebellious person. and also tattoo’s are seen person expression most of people wear tattoo for making themselves brave‚ and making a arts on there skin.
Jesselle Cawacas HUMSS 12-A After watching this vedio, I realized that not everyone with tattoos is bad and that they can be judged by what they see. People get tattoos because they want to remember their experiences in their lives and tattoos also symbolize tradition, so you shouldn't judge by what you see on their body because you don't know what's behind their tattoos. Because during pre-colonial and early Spanish colonial periods, tattoos were interpreted as more than just a body decoration. Depending on the religion, tattoos were seen as a sign of bravery, a symbol of social standing, and a rite of passage.
Krishia Mae D. Dipol HUMSS 12-B After I watched this vedio ,for me we cannot judge people because of their looks and because the others people have tattoos is because they have a reason and or a fashion to herself and beauty or because they look cool.
Nicolai Alexes Bolivar HUMSS 12-A Nowadays, tattooing was being normalized and the number or people getting tattoes are rising. It can be a symbol of anything or a reminder of something.
Akisha Mae F. Pabale Grade 12-B Tattoos were a historic part of our tribal culture in the Philippines although in recent times. Tattoos hold very important symbols especially in many indigenous people of kalinga region. Tattoos carries infinite meaning and mode of expression. Tattoos is the style of bravery, courage, strength and symbol of social standing not all the people with tattoo's are bad person they just simply believe the tattoos are are sacred markings on the body.
Angelica S. Rape HUMSS 12 C My realization about Visayan tattoo is doesn't mean if you have a tattoo you're a bad person or rebelious person , tattoo designs is more inspired by nature. Tattoos has many symbols that we confused what is mean but in visayan tattoo I realized that has a tattoo is being brave as a warrior in pre colonial time, as a student even though I don't have a tattoo I can be a warrior and brave. I know that I need to study more about Visayan tattoo, Many some of us didn't know what is tattoos mean but this video we clarified what is the meaning or symbol of tattoo in Visayan tattoo art. Thank you
After watching this video,I realized the tattoo of Apo Whang-Od it is a symbol of bravery and courage. She also inked the skin of women from the tribe, the tattoos are considered as a sign of beauty and elegance. Whang-od is living proof of the tribe's. Cristine Joy Talite Montejo HUMSS 12-A
BENALYN S. DELADA GRADE 12-HUMSS B Nowadays, it is not such a big issue and it's quite popular to get a tattoo. I've just learned, after viewing this film, tattooing is not about terrible or negative things, Many people fear that getting a tattoo will hurt a lot, but techniques and strategies have changed, so it doesn’t hurt as they used to before. And others People should appreciate them because they are a Filipino beliefs or culture.

Arturo N. Ocquiana lll Humss 12-C My realization in this video is that tattooing is more than just an art. It shows a reflection of our rich culture and braviness of the Filipino.

Lowell Jane S. Polvorido HUMSS 12-A My reflection about this video is not all people with tattoo are bad and rebellious person. It indicates you are trying to define yourself and that has to represent you or somebody else who wants to be associated with positive energy, it is also a “symbol” of a spiritual journey. In short, the color, design, and placement of the tattoo have a specific meaning.
Princess G. Soberano HUMSS 12-C I have encountered many people with tattoos, I observed that not all people with tattoos are bad and have bad plans for you. Sometimes there are people that when they see a person with a tattoo, they will treat them differently for the reason that they think they are addict, unprofessional and intimidating. Furthermore they will discrimate them. So, my reflections/realization as I've watch the video is you can't judge a person that has a tattoo without knowing the behind why they got that tattoo. As all tattoos have a story, maybe that person experience from a heartbreak, depression as well as sometimes for the honor of their love ones who is already dead and important to them. People are just judgemental without knowing that tattoos represent our thoughts, feelings, traditions together with our history.
Joshua T. Castro 12 HUMSS C During pre colonial period, having a tattoo doesn't mean that you're being rebellious. Having a tattoo before symbolizes culture, bravery, courage, and art. Every tattoo has it's meaning to every person who has it.
CHIN MHAY B.CATALOGO ,12-HUMSS D We all have different perspectives on things, so we all have different opinions. It's okay for me to have a tattoo or I understand people who have tattoos because not everyone who has tattoos is bad. Because society intends to judge those who have tattoos, we generalize them. But, in my opinion, it is the person's environment that influences him/her, not the tattoo.
A visayan tattoo is a representation of visayan tradition. It symbolizes their culture and beliefs. A tattoo on their skin is a representation of who they are as a person, and as a whole.A visayan tattoo is somewhat indicates how simple and complicated their life is. A tattoo is a symbol of the hardships and difficulties and histories of their origin. -Christina D. Catamio HUMSS 12 B

Visayan tattoo art are beautiful and are as well meaningful with its own patterns and designs.

It's truly fascinating to witness how these ancient practices continue to thrive and evolve in the modern world, preserving a vital part of Philippine heritage. - Angel Grace Infante HUMSS 12 C

Andrea P. Jaspe Grade 12 Humss B Visayan tattoos were characterized by bold lines and geometric and floral designs on the chest and buttocks. Tattoo designs varied by region. They can be repeating geometric designs, stylized representations of animals, and floral or sun-like patterns.
Rialfe D. Moreño HUMSS 12-B My realization after watching this video is that we cannot judge people who had a tattoo,we cannot say that he/she is rebellious or bad person,but rather we should appreciate it because tattoo is a Filipino traditions and it has been a part of Philippine culture,it plays a significant role in the lives of Filipinos even before Pre-colonial times.Therefore we should value the art of tattoo because tattooing is more than just an art it reflects our rich culture and our history as Filipinos.
Eynna Mei Lu HUMSS 12-C As I've watched the video, I've come to the realization that tattoos are not only for trends and don't mean a person is bad. Some of us always think that having a tattoo lessens our dignity as a person. However, it's not. Tattoos have been part of our tradition for centuries, which showcases how skilled our ancestors were. It's overwhelming knowing that tattoos in the past up to the present are being used to symbolize or represent the tradition, beauty, bravery, and ability of every person. Furthermore, we must learn to analyze tattoos more, because sometimes there are a lot of reasons and stories behind them.
Fredsil Arnaiz HUMSS B.12 when I watched this video, having many tattoos immediately predicts that you are an addict or you are brave, it also means that .These markings we are out wards symbols, beauty, family and pride.It also became a part of our culture
Today, tattoos are generally seen as a form of personal expression, and their popularity is on the rise. While there are still some who view tattoos with suspicion or disdain, they are becoming more and more mainstream, and their acceptance is growing. Angel M. Joplo Grade 12 - HUMSS B
Lovelie joy M.Magno Humss 12-B My realization in this video is that, not all people with tattoo are bad person,this is just the perspective of other peoples in our time now.According to this video that tattooing is very old filipino tradition,tattoo has long played the significant role in the life of filipinos even before pre colonial times.For early visayan tattoos are earned through acts of bravery may it be in battles,hunting or sailing & other significant experiences.The more tattoo a person has , the braver he is perceived to be ,some examples are, Egyptians considered tattoos as protective marking from diseases especially for women when they are pregnant, there are various tattoos such as yantra tattoos, animistic roots (patik), and etc. Tattoo design and pattern are mostly inspired by nature example labid, bangut, ablay, dub-dub, daya-daya and etc. But not all those with tattoo are men, there are also women. So n our time now they think that people with tattoo are bad but we don't know that before standing upright in the world the tattoo has become a part of our culture and tradition but in our time now people's perspective is different,those people who doesn't,t know its real origin or its story.

After learning about visayan tattoo art, I've realize that it has so many genres and how usually people cope and put masterpiece into it. Having this kind of learning makes me feel that our generation is really different from the past. Those markings that resembles their bravery, sailing and hunting so they can gain a tattoo is a sign of respect and braveness of people who are in a tribe. This is my first knowledge to know that every pattern they use have a meaning and purpose. For example if you win a war or you gain pride into your tribe makes you get a tattoo while in our generation we can put tattoo whatever and whenever we want with no sacrifices and hardship. Visayan tattoo art really amazed me of how brave they are to gain a tattoos with nature's and animals as a resemblance of their pattern and designs.
JULIANA P. JUMBAS GRADE 12 HUMSS D
Based on the video I watched it says there that visayan tattoos earned through acts of bravery continue to be respected and celebrated. It's important to note that Visayan tattoos and their association with bravery may hold different meanings or interpretations to different individuals. Visayan tattoos earned through acts of bravery are an important cultural practice in the Visayan region of the Philippines. They symbolize the courage and achievements of indigenous warriors and continue to hold cultural significance today. Visayan tattoo art teaches us valuable lessons about courage, resilience, honor, culture, etc. It serves as a symbolic reminder of the strength and bravery pass in individuals and communities.

After I’ve watched the video about Visayan Tattoo Art, I learned that each tattoo has it’s own meaning. There are example of tattoo mentioned like labid and bangut. Some tattoos applied on body parts. Such as dubdub for chest, daya daya for the arms and ablay for the shoulder. Different cultures that varying different perspectives on the significance of tattoo.
KATRINA MAE MAJA - HUMSS 12 D
What I learned after watching this video is tattoos were valor symbols to males who performed in combat with fitting courage and they accumulated through additional feats. Depending on the region, tattoos were seen as a sign of bravery, a symbol of social standing, and a rite of passage. Visayan tattoo art, deeply rooted in the indigenous traditions of the Visayan people in the Philippines, holds a special place in their cultural identity. The patterns and motifs often reflect their connection to nature, ancestral lineage, bravery, and spiritual beliefs. Each tattoo design carries a unique meaning, representing the individual's journey, accomplishments, and personal experiences. Visayan tattoo art serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving indigenous cultures and traditions. It is a form of art that not only adorns the body but also serves as a visual storytelling medium, connecting individuals to their heritage and allowing them to proudly carry their cultural identity.

Tattoo isn't for addict. Many people seeing a person with tattoos would say they're addicts. In the pre colonial time tattoos express bravity. The more tattoos you have, you are a brave person. The tattoo is one important art in the early days until now for indigenous people. I testify tattoo is one of the way to recognize and respect you. Tattoo reflects us a rich culture in history.

Tattoos have been a part of Philippine culture for centuries. In ancient times, ancestors used tattoos as symbols to represent their tribes, highlighting their identity as a group. However, in the modern era, tattoos have become a common way for individuals to express their appreciation for art. Tattoos today are not just random lines or symmetrical designs; each tattoo carries its own unique meaning, memories, and messages for the person who wears it. Many people get tattoos to remember shared experiences with loved ones, while others use them as a form of self-expression. Having tattoos does not define who you are, and often, people's perceptions of those with tattoos are completely different from their true selves.
Jonella F. Rodriguez 12 HUMSS-D
Having tattoos are already exist in pre-colonial era. It's a kind of art and also part of our history. Every people had a reason why they have a tattoo because it symbolize bravery, art or even confidence. Just like Bella Poarch who decided to have tattoo to cover her scars caused by her traumatic experience when she was young. Some people mistaken that if a person are having tattoo they're a bad person. However, tattoo have different meanings on a person's body. Aside from art, it can also gain people's confidence.
Carla Jane Buenaflor HUMSS-C
After watching this video, I realized that not all people that have a tattoos are rebellious or a bad people. In the Philippines tattoeng during the pre-colonial time were a wide spread tradition considered by the Filipinos. We shouldn't also judge people in terms of having a tattoos. I also realized, that we shouldn't based our judgement in terms on their appearance‚ and try to look at the other perspectives of that person before judging them. We may continue to spread our culture and bring tattoos to the next generation.
Tattoos is part of philippine culture and during old days ancestors once used tattoos as a symbol of their tribes which emphasize their identity as a gruop however in today's era tattoos is a normal way of expressing someone's facination about art and it not just a random lines . And symmetrical, symbols yet every tattoo conveys numerous message memories and means to those who have this many of use tattoos to remind. The memories they have shared with someone they love, some use tattoo because it's their way to express theirselves and having this doesn't define you as being and sometimes our perception to those who have tattoos is a direct opposite to their real selves

After I watched this video I realized that having tattoos that's not mean that you are a bad person some other tattoos has a deep full meaning.In Pre-Colonial Time Early Visayans Tattoos are earn through acts of bravery some people have tattoos because it's part of their culture and also realized that now days people easily judge those people who have tattoos their first impression of having tattoos that's mean that you're also a bad person or an addict.
This video has made me realize that tattoos can be used as amulets, declarations of love, religious symbols, adornments, and forms of punishment.
As amulets they served as both religious and protective symbols for the wearer and in some cases acted as a tribute to the gods.
As Declaration of love serves as symbolism and a sense of belonging.
As for religious symbols some people choose this kind of tattoos represent their own beliefs while otherschoose symbols they like without paying attention to their meanings.
As adornments shows their bodies to indicate their job, their marital status,etc.
Lastly as for punishment usually for criminals that words describing the nature of their crimes. inmates feel more positive about their bodies, are more assertive,uninhibited, and extroverted than nontattooed.
It doesn't mean that if you have a tattoo, you're a bad person; people get tattoos for a variety of reasons, such as to commemorate happiness or sad memories. One of the most reasons for getting a tattoo is to improve one's self-esteem. People who feel good about themselves are more likely to want to express themselves through their appearance. To others tattoos is a form of art that can sometimes be used to change a person's look to match their style.

After watching this video , I realized that tattoos have different types of symbolizations and it doesn't mean that all people who have a tattoo is a bad person or a drug addict. Tattoo is an art and many people often think negatively towards people with inked skin. Now I know that early Visayan people believes that tattoos symbolizes the bravery of a person.

This vedio has made me realize that having a tattoo is not bad, having a tattoo doesn't define who you are. It's just a body decorations that shows the culture of our country.
JENNY BABE REYES HUMSS 12-B
May reflection about the tattoos is people had tattoo is it's carries infinite meaning we don't need to judge it in the first place because not all people had tattoo is bad people, rebellious but tattoos is also like an art and it has a beautiful meaning of it.
Christine Joy Piabol Humss 12-C
Nowadays, when you have a tattoo, people think you are an addict, but in the pre-colonial era, it was not because in that time, the tattoo for them was an art on their body and if they still tattooed, all of that had different meanings theirs and the others they do as a symbol of their culture.
Mae Ann L.Ducanes Humss12D
My reflection about visayan tattoo is not all people that have their tattoos in their body look like a bad strangers sometimes people put tattoos to their body to empress or to bring back the cultures before,to see the other people what is the culture about the tattoos and to see how beautiful the tattoo is.
Jovytte J. Goco Humss 12 B
Tattooing is a part of art. Its not because you have a tattoo that its bad, look at the assumption of a tattoo is an culture. I think that a person is not dirty if he has many tattoos because it is our decision for each other, not because we all are. Because we loved tattoos, we should respect people with tattoos, its not bad, its part of our art culture
Lianne Grace J. Hinlo 12-Humss A
This vedio has made me realize that person having a tattoo doesn't define a bad person because if a person having tattoos can be used as declaration of love, bravery, inspiration, culture, courage etc. Furthermore, we must learn to analyze tattoos more, because sometimes these are lot of reasons and stories behind them.
ALEAH GRACE GARCIA HUMSS 12 A
after i finish this video‚ i realized that are tattoo’s are literally called arts and traditional visayan is a symbol that you’re brave not a rebellious person. and also tattoo’s are seen person expression most of people wear tattoo for making themselves brave‚ and making a arts on there skin.
Jesselle Cawacas HUMSS 12-A
After watching this vedio, I realized that not everyone with tattoos is bad and that they can be judged by what they see. People get tattoos because they want to remember their experiences in their lives and tattoos also symbolize tradition, so you shouldn't judge by what you see on their body because you don't know what's behind their tattoos. Because during pre-colonial and early Spanish colonial periods, tattoos were interpreted as more than just a body decoration. Depending on the religion, tattoos were seen as a sign of bravery, a symbol of social standing, and a rite of passage.
Krishia Mae D. Dipol HUMSS 12-B
After I watched this vedio ,for me we cannot judge people because of their looks and because the others people have tattoos is because they have a reason and or a fashion to herself and beauty or because they look cool.

Tattoos were a historic part of our tribal culture in the Philippines although in recent times. Tattoos hold very important symbols especially in many indigenous people of kalinga region. Tattoos carries infinite meaning and mode of expression. Tattoos is the style of bravery, courage, strength and symbol of social standing not all the people with tattoo's are bad person they just simply believe the tattoos are are sacred markings on the body.
Angelica S. Rape HUMSS 12 C
My realization about Visayan tattoo is doesn't mean if you have a tattoo you're a bad person or rebelious person , tattoo designs is more inspired by nature. Tattoos has many symbols that we confused what is mean but in visayan tattoo I realized that has a tattoo is being brave as a warrior in pre colonial time, as a student even though I don't have a tattoo I can be a warrior and brave. I know that I need to study more about Visayan tattoo, Many some of us didn't know what is tattoos mean but this video we clarified what is the meaning or symbol of tattoo in Visayan tattoo art. Thank you
After watching this video,I realized the tattoo of Apo Whang-Od it is a symbol of bravery and courage. She also inked the skin of women from the tribe, the tattoos are considered as a sign of beauty and elegance. Whang-od is living proof of the tribe's.

Nowadays, it is not such a big issue and it's quite popular to get a tattoo. I've just learned, after viewing this film, tattooing is not about terrible or negative things, Many people fear that getting a tattoo will hurt a lot, but techniques and strategies have changed, so it doesn’t hurt as they used to before. And others People should appreciate them because they are a Filipino beliefs or culture. And for others, tattoos serve as a reminder of a special moment, a life motto, or a declaration of their religious or philosophical convictions.

Lowell Jane S. Polvorido HUMSS 12-A
My reflection about this video is not all people with tattoo are bad and rebellious person. It indicates you are trying to define yourself and that has to represent you or somebody else who wants to be associated with positive energy, it is also a “symbol” of a spiritual journey. In short, the color, design, and placement of the tattoo have a specific meaning.
Princess G. Soberano HUMSS 12-C
I have encountered many people with tattoos, I observed that not all people with tattoos are bad and have bad plans for you. Sometimes there are people that when they see a person with a tattoo, they will treat them differently for the reason that they think they are addict, unprofessional and intimidating. Furthermore they will discrimate them. So, my reflections/realization as I've watch the video is you can't judge a person that has a tattoo without knowing the behind why they got that tattoo. As all tattoos have a story, maybe that person experience from a heartbreak, depression as well as sometimes for the honor of their love ones who is already dead and important to them. People are just judgemental without knowing that tattoos represent our thoughts, feelings, traditions together with our history.
Joshua T. Castro 12 HUMSS C
During pre colonial period, having a tattoo doesn't mean that you're being rebellious. Having a tattoo before symbolizes culture, bravery, courage, and art. Every tattoo has it's meaning to every person who has it.
CHIN MHAY B.CATALOGO ,12-HUMSS D
We all have different perspectives on things, so we all have different opinions. It's okay for me to have a tattoo or I understand people who have tattoos because not everyone who has tattoos is bad. Because society intends to judge those who have tattoos, we generalize them. But, in my opinion, it is the person's environment that influences him/her, not the tattoo.
A visayan tattoo is a representation of visayan tradition. It symbolizes their culture and beliefs. A tattoo on their skin is a representation of who they are as a person, and as a whole.A visayan tattoo is somewhat indicates how simple and complicated their life is. A tattoo is a symbol of the hardships and difficulties and histories of their origin.

After I watched the video, I realized that Visayan Tattoo Arts are not just an art form but a profound expression of cultural identity. The intricate designs and techniques employed in these tattoos are a testament to the deep-rooted traditions of the Visayan people. It's truly fascinating to witness how these ancient practices continue to thrive and evolve in the modern world, preserving a vital part of Philippine heritage.

Eynna Mei Lu HUMSS 12-C
As I've watched the video, I've come to the realization that tattoos are not only for trends and don't mean a person is bad. Some of us always think that having a tattoo lessens our dignity as a person. However, it's not. Tattoos have been part of our tradition for centuries, which showcases how skilled our ancestors were. It's overwhelming knowing that tattoos in the past up to the present are being used to symbolize or represent the tradition, beauty, bravery, and ability of every person. Furthermore, we must learn to analyze tattoos more, because sometimes there are a lot of reasons and stories behind them.
Fredsil Arnaiz HUMSS B.12 when I watched this video, having many tattoos immediately predicts that you are an addict or you are brave, it also means that .These markings we are out wards symbols, beauty, family and pride.It also became a part of our culture

Lovelie joy M.Magno Humss 12-B My realization in this video is that, not all people with tattoo are bad person,this is just the perspective of other peoples in our time now.According to this video that tattooing is very old filipino tradition,tattoo has long played the significant role in the life of filipinos even before pre colonial times.For early visayan tattoos are earned through acts of bravery may it be in battles,hunting or sailing & other significant experiences.The more tattoo a person has , the braver he is perceived to be ,some examples are, Egyptians considered tattoos as protective marking from diseases especially for women when they are pregnant, there are various tattoos such as yantra tattoos, animistic roots (patik), and etc. Tattoo design and pattern are mostly inspired by nature example labid, bangut, ablay, dub-dub, daya-daya and etc. But not all those with tattoo are men, there are also women. So n our time now they think that people with tattoo are bad but we don't know that before standing upright in the world the tattoo has become a part of our culture and tradition but in our time now people's perspective is different,those people who doesn't,t know its real origin or its story.
