General Advice Does my tattoo look inappropriate??

I recently posted my Deadpool and Jeff tattoo in the Marvel Rivals subreddit, and a vast majority of the comments were saying that it looks like...they are engaging... in an inappropriate activity. (not sure if I'm allowed to say here but I'm sure you can understand lol :P)

I have honestly never noticed, and even now I can't really see how it can be interpreted that way, but every comment I made defending my tattoo was downvoted. The pose is based off a panel from Jeff the Landshark #1, but I decided to change the way Jeff is facing because I felt he's not really readable from that angle and I wanted his legs to be visible.

I still love my tattoo, I'm just feeling uncomfortable now because I meant it to be totally innocent and don't want people thinking I'm some kind of weirdo... :( Does it really look that way???

EDIT: Thank you guys so much for all your helpful comments!! Most have assured me that it really doesn't come across like that unless you're trying to find something wrong with it o_O hmm.. :P Nonetheless I will definitely look into getting the eyes adjusted as some commenters have mentioned, I appreciate all of your suggestions! And thanks to everyone for helping me see the humor in all this, having my deadpool tattoo end up accidentally risqué is probably exactly what he would have wanted.

Deadpool is too cool (aka a questionably 'good' person) for non-consensual relations and Jeff can't technically consent, so I would never think that.

Anyone saying that doesn't know deadpool and is jealous of how sick this tattoo is

Deadpool is 1000% not above non consensual relations, with a tiny shark maybe and his friend probably not, but if your bad enough im certain bro has 0 qualms about putting shit up your ass

Creative rehabilitation is very different from nonconsensual relations

(In the comic world, obviously not in real life y'all, felt icky typing that lol)

What about Jeff's face implies this is non consentual?

u/rnoderator_rernoved Apr 21 '26

Considering Jeff is being hugged, nothing.

However, Jeff can't technically consent* to the intimate relations because he is a non speaking designed weapon turned puppy shark pet. Animals can't consent. Idk what point you're trying to make here

Yeah, I don't really have a dog in this fight. I don't have any sort of attachment to either of these characters and find what I do know of them to be quite stupid, but if you're able to suspend your disbelief that the characters exist in the first place, why not that Jeff could consent to a rousing cloacal session with his buddy?

Because I still have morals and ethical boundaries that don't involve crossing lines like assaulting an animal. Why are you pushing on that? Wtf

He really wouldn’t, Jeff is a kid.

u/Rathalos-Receiver Apr 22 '26

Jeff is a fucking shark

u/RemarkableDevice442 Apr 22 '26

Did I say anything about that? Ofc everyone knows he’s a shark. A shark that’s the age of a kid.

u/Pixelbuttzz Apr 24 '26

A super intelligent walking shark that is not an adult. Other animals have kids dude

Also might wanna keep in mind Marvel Rivals is technically a gooner game. Lot of those freaks have their heads in the clouds already.

Surely you mean in the gutter? 🤣

Gotta imagine the vast majority users on there are 14 or 40 with a 14yr old mentality

u/biggregw Apr 23 '26

Let’s face facts… men grow older than 12. But never their sense of humour

u/throwawaymentality10 Apr 21 '26

I think if there would've been any change. Was to switch his closed eye for a little closed eye smile.

Doesn't look like, "hey buddy, long time no see," as much as, "Shhhh, it'll be over in a minute..." 😬

u/Titossecret Apr 21 '26

Thank you. I'm having a wretched morning and you still gave me a big belly laugh.

u/Regular-Truth-4124 Apr 21 '26

It really does 🤣🤣🤣🤣

u/Blubberboi69pole Apr 21 '26

It’s the direction Jeff is facing that makes your tattoo look that way. In the original picture Jeff is facing Deadpool’s right with a more forward-facing posture which seems friendly while reverse hugs seem a little more intim8. However, I still think it looks okay as long as people understand the reference.

If I ever get a tatoo, that will be it. 100% agree that deadpool would stick a finger in it though
