[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s weird when people act like hating pink is a feminist badge rather than misogynistic itself. [/quote] I think there’s nuance between “hating pink” and “not wanting your life to look like it’s been spray painted with pepto-bismol in service of lazy gender norming by mainstream children’s clothing retailers”. I’d be just as frustrated if it was yellow or green that suddenly became so overwhelmingly the default for little girls. [/quote] +1 That was definitely my feeling. I like pink as a color just fine; I did not want my baby's room to look like a pink bomb went off. So we didn't find out the sex -- that meant people bought more gender-neutral clothing, which was nice. My daughter (and I) wear pink sometimes, but it's hardly the dominant color in our closets. It's just one among many. [/quote]
