Are men debarred from wearing pink shirts? (guys, girls, light)

[Raena77]

Hmmm don't really care if a dude wears pink or not.

I recently bought this shirt and wear in public from time to time:

No one seems to have a problem with it and it's super-cute and comfortable.

european men have such a better outlook on this type of stuff....everything here in America, is like "oh that looks gay".....they always go there....ugh already....and as a gay man, it pisses my ass off !!!

oh, and I look good in Pink, and trust me, nobody is going to tease me......

Cracks me up! But seriously, pink is better accepted on a young adult or adult male than it would be on a baby, toddler or young boy (even other countries I notice they follow this "American?" trend when it comes to babies). I don't know who was responsible for starting that trend but it must have been established decades ago. I think it's silly to choose gender-based colors.

your right !! anyway, most colors I think a person has to go by their skin color as to what looks good on them......

but I will agree, baby boys need blue and baby girls need pink, I guess i am not as open minded as I thought i was................eek !!

Pink is totally acceptable for guys. Just wont work with as many clothing options as say blue so more discretions needs to be exercised. Button down shirts, polo's, tee's are fine, but say pink baseball cap, not so much.

Dang, I love a secure man! You rock.

Secure = Sexy

They "say" real men who are secure with their masculinity have no problem wearing pink or feminine colors. I disagree. You could as easily wear black, blue, or green... why choose a feminine color such as pink? It has nothing to do with ones masculinity. Sorry but I just can't take a man wearing a purple or pink shirt seriously. I don't know what's with that trend among young guys nowadays. It should be outlawed lol.

Becoz a brownie like me does "real" justice to colours like pink, white and light turquoise.

Dudes from my part of the world have wonderful skin texture which takes pink to a whole new level

I guess it also depends on the shirt. I know while I was in a certain part of the world, I noticed a lot of guys wearing bright pink shirts and cardigans- it turned me off so much I didn't care how good-looking the guy was. There was a trend for men to wear feminized clothes. But someone on this thread posted a dress shirt with light pink stripes and I find that acceptable. It all depends I guess.

I'm a man and I love to wear bright and colorful clothing. They look good on and bring out your best features. In fact, I have a pair of short pink fuchsia shorts I wear about once a week. They are actually men's swimming trunks, but you would never know!
