Is it gay for a guy to get a rose tattoo?

I'd like to get a rose tattoo on my ankle. I know many women who have this, but no guys. Is it considered gay to have that?

    No. They can actually look rather tough, especially if they are done in the American Traditional style (see Sailor Jerry's work). Roses were a very popular tattoo for sailors during the early part of the 1900's.

    Source(s): 10 years of being tattooed. One of them is a rose.

    The ankle makes me wonder, but it is up to you after all.

    Not once in the years (decades) I've had it has anyone referred to my rose as "gay".

    Me either, for that matter.

    Source(s): Former Sailor. The rose was my first tat (left bicep).

    Are you gay? If not, then no. If you're not getting a tattoo with the intent of symbolizing homosexuality, then why would it "be gay?" Grow up.

    mechanic, what makes someone a "true guy?" Douche.

    Source(s): Pierced and tattooed.

    yes it is especially if its on ur ankle... im not sure why all these people are saying is not gay it is way too feminine im being completely honest with you.. i friend who's a girl was given the suggestion to get the rose tattoo on her ankle and she said it was wayyy too prissy. so let alone a dude... if it means something to you by all means get it... but dude think about it.. a dude with this on their ankle :

    Unless it is mated with the word "MOM", some people will think you are gay. They won't say it to your face. It will be gossip behind your back.
