I think men like pink a lot. In Canada and the States, men don't wear pink clothes because it is seen as feminine. In Japan men wear more pink.

I know a lot of guys who LOVE it when women wear pink. If they have to buy clothes for a woman, they usually buy pink because they like the color not because she does.

In fact, I think my husband likes pink more than I do.

I agree with you, some of them do but they don't like to admit it!!

Very bodacious of them!

\yep. It's a great negotiating tool. "Honey, it's not black!"
I have so many black clothes. it used to freak him out until i told him i don' t want to worry about matching in the morning

So basically, they put girls and boys in a room, figured out that they liked certain colors (which we already knew) and then said, "The girls like these because they're girls, the boys like these because they're boys."

Science is really going downhill, ever since we lost the gender distinctions we used to have. Yes, boys and girls are different. Everybody already knows that. Yet it's now groundbreaking to show it.

Ifeel your sarcasm!!

lol!

Actually it's all culturally related. As part of the test they had a few Chinese kids. The boys chose more reds, the girls slightly lighter shades of red. Why? Red is considered lucky in China.

By the same token blue was considered effeminate in the early 20th century and pink, as a stronger colour, was seen as more masculine. Babies were dressed accordingly - home almanacs from WWI days reflected that by saying boys should be dressed in pink and girls blue "if you follow convention".

if you're wondering how I know this it was covered in the local paper today. The journo didn't have a lot of respect for the study authors' historical and cultural awareness.

Also just more proof of the degredation of science. We know boys like blue and girls like pink, but it didn't even address why. I assume it's because we've raised them in environments that lead them to like one over the other. If red is a lucky color, you're going to like it. If you have all blue stuff, you're going to like blue because it's tied psychologically to your favorite blue toy... etc.

I wear pink a lot.

That's 'cuz you have fond memories of pink!

Not looking at the Study, I wonder how it came about the way it is now, with girls favoring pink and boys blue, if it was suggested back in those days that boys should be in pink and girls blue?

That's a valid point!
