Koi and Floral leg piece tattoo?

I am soon to be getting a huge knee to foot Koi leg piece, with Lotus flowers incorporated into the design. I am a guy and i wanted to know if anyone thinks that it would be seen as femanine, or if lotus flowers are generally a unisex tattoo design.

i know quite a few guys that have koi tattoos with some type of flowers incorporatetd into the tattoo. it's not feminine at all.
Reply:the Koi is a symbol of being a brave warrior

the lotus blossom is the symbol of eternal hope



this is because they only grow in dark, dank muddy waters, and the ethos behind this is "from something so woefully full of despair, something truly beautiful can come"



its a beautiful sentiment

take from it what you will
Reply:Not at all my husband is a tattooist and has a very similar design on both his legs and arms. Lotus flowers are the most common thing to go with koi's and they look amazing. I would not stress in any way that it is feminine as it looks hot as on guys and to this date he has never had a request yet to put it on a female and he has been tattooing for 15 yrs.
Reply:i think that it is a good tattoo to get!!! and no it can be for women and men!!! ive seen a lot of men with the koi and the lotus flowers with it!!!
