My mom hates tattoos- my younger sister and brother both have small ones, and it is fair to say she hates them. She thinks they are tacky, regardless of the size. Now, I don't see either my sister or my brother feeling the need to bring that up on any of their social media accounts. Maybe if there had been a discussion with friends/ coworkers about it and the comment was a reference, but you are right that the comment is odd.
In general when creating profiles young people like to sound cool or unconventional or rebellious. Instead of saying "I have tattoos" she says "my parents hate my tattoos" - now we know she has them and she is throwing out that badass/free spirit persona. Hope that makes sense. I'm in my 20s and many people do this. You get creative or exaggerate or state the obvious in a creative way. If you look around you'd find a lot of creatively written profiles. JMO
