I don't care why he might have that preference (actually I know why he said it was a tactile preference). I am wondering about his motivation for stating such a preference. The territorial side for me would be, I like something and would ask you to grant the wish because I would have some need to see you doing something I liked/wanted.
It could signal a small degree of ownership on my part. It could signal a degree of what I will call my preference is how it should be or one form is better than another form.
If I was the new man, I would eventually state my preference or talk about what I thought was better/ my preference. I wouldn't insist on it.
About tats, I wouldn't ask that they be removed. I might say some thing like I prefer tattoo- less to a tat and if in a LTR with the intention of making it lasting, ask you didn't get any more.
Some tats look good. Some tats are not to my liking because of quality or style. I also am concerned about blood borne infections. I realize most tat places use hygienic methods but some one can slip up.
Back to the territorial p!$$ing-It's my property thing. It can be said, if he asks you to wear or not wear a certain type/style of clothing or jewelry, is that also territorial marking, or is it a preference.
I have had conversations with BB about tats. She wants to do her eyebrows so she doesn't have to put on eyebrows with a pencil. I said fine but check out the hygienic procedures the shop uses thoroughly. I don't want her to have anymore medical conditions. She has too many small problems now, that interfere with our R.
Do you want or dislike the territory thing, if that is what it is? Is territorial akin to keeping/planning on a LTR or does it feel like he is in some way controlling you?

Sm So now he knows that you do. Fun in bed, yet nurturing. What's not to like? Exactly SM, what is not to like.
