I will tell you something else you dont want to know. Men have two "vaginas". The tunica vaginalis and the cavum vaginale. They are probably pink since most innards usually are in mammals. They are both found in a particular man part but I will let you Google that. If you dare.

Wow I thought I wasn’t that knowledgeable about women’s fashion but how you don’t know what Pink is... that’s baffling. You can’t walk into a mall without seeing giant Pink advertising at VS. My GF has tons of Pink stuff overall, not a substantial part of her wardrobe but a number of items. I love VS, even if they haven’t had a good few years, they make things that look sexy and nice.

Shouldn't that all change with this push for gender neutrality? Just waiting for hospitals to eliminate pink and blue caps for newborns.

Same as the reason "Nike" or "Adidas" are printed on clothing. It's branding. That's it.

I haven't seen pink or blue caps for many years, decades. Every baby gets a pink and blue striped cap.

I miss VS's regular clothing that they used to sell like sweaters, jeans, skirts, dresses, etc.

Never knew that, but I believe it, it seems logical. Anyone have the source that says this just out of curiosity?
