Re: tatoos
Maybe a Mars (male) symbol with the backwards prongs on the arrow either severed or removed completely?

Re: tatoos
I've seen one I call "broken male" which is the male symbol, as you'd normally see it, but the arrow portion has a gap between the circle and the tip of the arrow. If I could, I'd post a photo here, but we can't.

Re: tatoos
There was a thread similar to this many moons ago. After a lot of discussion there was a design created using (I think) the kanji for eunuch.

Depending on how flowery you wanted the translation to be, you might compare yourself to a horse thusly.

Re: tatoos
I just got tat using Mandarin for 'Palace Eunuch" but it is on my belly just under breastbone centered over a budda: 太监
The artist is doing a design with the symbol that anthonyg just posted - but is reversing to a black square with symbol left white. The design is to be an armband with the design repeated as links

Re: tatoos
宦官 I like this one.
I didn't understand the differing connotatons. The translation for the one I used was something like "great grandfather" and "intensely confined" together translated as 'palace eunuch'
What is the meaning if the one you like?

Re: tatoos
According to Babelfish it simply translates in Japanese as Eunuch.
Copied from Babelfish:
Original
Eunuch
Translation
宦官
