Pink—bright and beautiful—is a hue associated with women, but if you are a man that rocks the colour, do write in:
- Why do you love pink?
- Do you tone the look by wearing sombre colours with pink?
- How do people react when they see you dressed in bright pink?
- Does the colour reflect or affect your own spirits?
- Do you think colours ought to be gender-specific?
- Do many men in your family wear colours that are deemed feminine?
- Why aren’t men encouraged to wear bright shades of pink?
- Do you think the perception that blue is for boys and pink is for girls still exists? Do you see it in your children?
- What can we do to remove this notion? How do we encourage more men and women to wear what they like?
If you are a woman, tell us about the men in your life who wear pink with style!
