In eastern countries, a man wearing a pink shirt will be called sissy.********** NOT A TEACHER **********
Panicmonger,
Here is a cultural note that may interest you.
In the United States, most males avoid being associated
with the color pink.
For example, most men would never wear a pink shirt.
If they did, some unkind people would whisper that they
liked romantic attachments only with their own gender.
Thank you
"Shocking pink" or "fluorescent pink" are both commonly used to describe that blinding shade of pink. (Barb, we need to see pictures of those dresses!)
