With regards to the color pink, what's interesting is that the Americas were supposedly responsible to spread the notion last century that it's a feminine color, when originally it wasn't… and apparently, it's supposed to be the opposite.

But now, we're going back to the time before all this, and we simply like pink – regardless of sex and gender -- because it's an awesome color. :laugh:

(Also, what animelad said…)

All colors (and everything really) is associated with one thing or another and a lot of times those associations lead to beliefs like "if a guy likes pink then he's gay" or "kids should like bright colors only."  Its best not to give a damn about it, especially because its a cultural thing that changes from country to country, city to city and, heck, household to household.

If someone gives you flack for liking hot pink as a guy just tell them part of being an adult is being a living definition of what adults like and an adult man can like hot pink if he wants, he's a freaking adult.

Also, from what I understand, the whole boy color/girl color thing, though prevalent throughout history, really got its jump start as a way for furniture and clothing companies to prevent parents from recycling old clothing from one child to another. So yeah, say you don't buy into bullcrap.
