Pretty in pink. Hey Bullet Magnet, why is Pink a girly colour anyway? What's the emtopathomajocaknockalogicary basis?

The practice of assigning colours to gender roles began in the 1920s in western culture. Pink, considered the most masculine and decided colour, was appropriate for boys, while blue, delicate and dainty, was considered appropriate for boys. Then in the 1940s this societal norm inverted, and has been that way ever since.

It has been hypothesised that women like pink because of an innate preference for reddish things, like healthy faces and ripened fruits. This hypothesis was criticised as being unsubstantiated.

I’m not the one who said it. Plus, I like your colour mix. It should result in a lovely pink.

One explaination I heard was that Hitler's armbands to designate Homosexuals were pink, and so it was no longer a manly colour.

Urban myth?

Well, it's true that Hitler's armbands/patches were pink. But he probably chose the colour because of an existing association.

Then again, the Jewish one was yellow and fuck knows what that was meant to mean.

It's because cartoon giraffes are usually drawn yellow. It's a tenuous connection, but it's there.

See I'd have thought it could be something to do with how urine and vomit can often come in the colour yellow, and we all know what Hitler thought of the Jewish people....

Well, that or he thought the Jews are secretly Chinese.

Possibly. Or the Japanese. Have a look at some kanji, whichever one you find it in is your answer.
