It is common for places of business to decide that they don't want some people's custom. There are still plenty of "No shoes, no shirt, no service." signs around, for example. If somebody made a scene trying to order a steak in a vegetarian restaurant, the management might well ask him to leave, regardless of the size of his wallet.

Carl-E:
I understand that,  I suppose I had gotten it in my head that GM's tattoos would be covered in normal dress, and that they'd only be a problem at the beach, without a shirt. 

In a case like that, where the tattoos wouldn't even be visible, there's hardly any reason to be discriminated against. 



Except the usual, of course...   :roll: :-P

I assume you mean existing?

Carl-E:
Basically.  Some people don't need any reason...

GarandMarine:
My tattoos are covered in regular dress. None of my classmates know. Then again none of my classmates are aware then except for the last two weeks while my eyes have been recovering that I have had a full size handgun on my person from the day we met till my surgery, so they're not the most observant bunch.

The key with stuff like Ryokan and Onsen is that bathing and using the hot springs are generally traditional, and thus public. So it shifts to a similar issue like the beach from the non-issue of a restaurant or bar.

Side note: Maid cafes are just weird as hell to me for some reason...
