Jo,

    So I just went to your web site and if the gentleman (very handsome I
    might add) pictured is your husband then he does not have what this
    particular Japanese cult considers a full body tattoo. They have
    100% of their skin tattooed which includes their entire head, all of
    their genitals, etc. It is usually done over a relatively long period
    of time. I am going to do a little more research on the issue of the
    sweat, but it is my understanding that tattoos do impact the ability
    of the body to sweat where the tattoos have actually been done and
    that when all (and by this I mean 100%) of your skin is covered that
    it does impact the ability of the body to sweat. However, if after
    some research (I know a few doctors I'm going to talk to) I'm unable
    to find proof I will repost on this on Orchid. But again, to qualify
    for the full body tattoo, he would have to have his face and head
    covered too and unless you've doctored his picture quite a bit, that
    certainly isn't apparent.
