The next time anyone gripes, and moans and groans and asks WHY do we need to take classes in English or have spelling or anything else in this area in life because computers do everything for us now. First of all, computers are ONLY as intelligent as the person who programs it. Then, show them this tattoo. If I know most people under the age of 30, they ask, "well what's wrong with it?" That makes the point right there.

Since it's flipped I cant be sure. But I think it's "xie hua" (withered flower) "wei lian" (william in chinese). Did I read that wrongly? But pretty sure it isn't picnic table hahaha. The friend is just messing with her

It's actually not an easy fix, the female symbol points down

Among other things. The male symbol also represents a spear (which is phalic indeed), and the female Aphordite's mirror (and the general map of a woman's internal reproduction organs, not that it was known in Ancient Greece).

No! The male symbol represents the arrow shot by Apollo, the Greek god of the sun! And the female symbol represents the goddess Venus's mirror.

Ugh nooo the male symbol is a shield and spear, and the female symbol is a mirror (Even tho it's a bit sexist) NOT a penis and a target

Also whats the point of removing Nancy's name in her own comments but leaving the whole thing in the other person's comment lol.

Um no she obviously doesn't since she's gay and doesn't find that attractive. She's just an idiot who didn't know the difference between the symbols.

What Nancy said waa wrong. The female symbol is Venus's bronze mirror and the make symbol is Mars's shield and spear.

I always figured this tattoo meant that you had a anchor in life and that you refused to let the storms of life sweep you away and make you sink. Not that you are an actual anchor.
