    Have no problems wearing pink shirts, definitely doesn't seem to be an Irish thing though, first saw it in London, they definitely dress better then us for work. Am lucky that I have tanned skin, so a dark suit and pink shirt looks great imo.

    The idea of pink for girls and blue for boys is a fairly recent one, you know - dates back to around Edwardian times - and there was a period of pink for boys and blue for girls along the way. No reason why men shouldn't wear pink - unless they're gingers ;)

    Have you been watching QI?? ;-)

    There's no such thing as being 'manly enough' to wear pink.


    It's gay. Anyone who wears it is gay. They're not manly. They're gay.
    Tom, you left your pink boxers at my place ... ;)

    I've got a pink t-shirt. I dont wear it because its fashionable. I dont wear it because I'm gay. I wear it because its a t-shirt.

    I wear pink. In fact I generally wear whatever the phuck I want and look good. Bitches love pink. Don't be jealous because you're too insecure to wear pink.

    PS I'm awesome

    In Western culture, the color baby blue is often associated with baby boys (and baby pink for baby girls), particularly in clothing and linen and shoes. This is a recent tradition, however, and until the 1940s the convention was exactly the opposite: pink was considered the appropriate color for boys as the more masculine and "decided" while blue was the more delicate and dainty color and therefore appropriate for girls.

    OK - the biggest irony of this thread is the colour of the bar graph for the 4th option.

    They were white before I let you wash them.


    Next time you're getting punished, big boy.

    Meh, we live in an age where these products are available to men and yet the pink shirt is still a problem. Lesser of the evils imo

    Just because products are available doesn't mean that we should be conned into thinking they're "OK".

    The only reason cosmetic companies moved their sights onto men is because they saturated the female market.
