Best Answer

Rose Tattoo – The Rose in the West represents what the Lotus does in the East. A symbol of love, but especially of a love that is pure. Because of the roses’ beauty, scent and shape, it is the ultimate floral symbol. Of all the flower tattoo designs, the rose is still the most popular and the most requested. Interestingly, the rose is nearly as popular with men as it is with women. Rose with thorns - A tattoo of a rose with prominent thorns - the thorns being the means by which the rose protects itself - reminds us that beauty does not come without sacrifice and that caution must be exercised, lest the prick of the thorn draw blood. Love is not without risk. Ecstasy does not come without it's share of agony.
