Why is Pink a girls colour?

af_thefragile · 2012-10-15 17:46:14

Why is it that some colours have become gender specific? Like pink for girls and blue for guys? Why can't a man drive around in a pink car and be taken seriously?

That's interesting why did they change that to suit the gender then back in those days?

Pink is a nice colour! Probably that is why! I like pink and most pinks and other colours like black, purples, grey and reds but my favourite colour is blue and most blues and I am a girl!!:)

Interesting facts all the same.

It shouldn't matter what colours males/females wear!? Maybe as babies you conform to one specific colour and colours that suit them but as they grow older they have their tastes and likes and favourite colours and colours that suit them and they stick with that!?

Ya that explains probably the whole pink/blue conformity.

Should it really matter what colours men and women wear like though? Some have a sense of style/colour more than others I suppose.

Certain colours suit certain people not every colour suits everyone whether it pink or blue!
