I'm third generation. I only no some polish.

But the reason I ask is my friend got a tat that says "polski" but him, my brothers and I got into the argument between polska and polski. So if a male was to get a tat he would get "polski" and a female "polska"?

Neither one.
Jestem Polakiem= I am Polish (male)
Jestem Polka=I am Polish (female)
