Okay for men to wear pink?

[mom2girls]

Actually I think men look nice in pink!

[I'm on holiday]

Heck yes! :)

DS wears a pink polo. DH wouldn't be caught dead in pink. Level of confidence maybe??

I would be more concerned about the size of hit gut and his grooming than the color of his shirt. Some men have internalized gender identity issues and feel a need to look "Macho" and convince everyone who sees them they are manly, so they refuse to wear colors like pink, yellow, or purple, but douse themselves in cologne, open all the buttons of their shirts and wear more jewelry than most gay men would. SOme men just prefer dark colors, white, or tan. Wear whatever color that goes best with your skin color, and if one of those is pink...either pale pink or vibrant.....do it. Believe me, as a gay man, I and those like me can tell who is or isn't and it is not about your shirt.

Oh, and if you use a hanky, please watch what color you have especially if it sticks out of a back pocket. Not used much anymore, but to many of "us" the color tells us what you are into. (lol)

LOL about the hanky! I convinced DH to get a pink shirt and now with his new off-white BR Linen blend suit and blue checkered Burberry tie, he looks FABULOUS. I don't know, he might even pass for gay;)

If the hardest "thug" in NYC can wear pink and still be intimidating then all men can wear pink. Pink is my favorite color. As a matter of fact I am going to buy my husband and 2 sons matching pink polo shirts and maybe I can find pink polo dresses for my daughter and I. Oh my, you'll se us a mile away, we'll look like a huge pieceof cotton candy;).
