Snake tattoo causes family feud

A man faced backlash after refusing to ask his boyfriend to cover up his snake tattoo when his sister visited. The sister has a phobia of snakes and asked for the tattoo to be covered, which the man refused. He told his sister that if the tattoo was an issue for her, she should leave.

However, the man’s mother later criticized him for being rude to his sister and ruining her day. The man defended his boyfriend’s right to self-expression and explained that the tattoo was based on a picture of his boyfriend’s old pet snake, which was important to him. While he acknowledged that he could have handled the situation better, he also felt that his sister’s request was unreasonable.
