I have never tried wearing pink in my whole life may it be shirt or any kind of clothing. Maybe im just not that comfortable with the color itself, i think the color is more suited for a girl rather than a guy. I have also seen some guys who wears pink shirt when i go around malls and i think it also looks fine. I guess there are just some people who look good on pink and i think im just not one of them. hehe
How about you?
Have you seen one or know any guy who wears pink shirt, pants or even shoes?
Do you think its odd to see a guy wearing pink?
What can you say about this?

In America around the turn of the century pink was a popular color for baby boys. Over time we have associated it as a girls color.
I have no problem with a fellow who wears a pink shirt. I think it is no reflection on him other than he is comfortable with his self identity. My father in law once put my mother in laws feminine scarf around his throat....he didn't care what anyone thought, all he knew as he was cold and that would help. I greatly admired him for this because in the time period - 1979 - people were hyper with this.
Now I think things are different.
a pink shirt is sometimes ok
pants or shoes would be kind of creepy
There's nothing wrong with a pink shirt. The rest won't look good to me
A few guys where i work wear pink shirts sometimes and they look just fine. Pink shoes on a guy would look rather strange.
It depends on the guy and just what he was wearing. I have seen guys with pink hats, or pink tyes and think nothing of it. I have seen guys in all pink shirts and other pink clothes and i do sometimes do a double take. My own dh will not wear pink, he just has no desire to do it.
If they look good on pink they should wear it.
I don't know about pants or shoes, but a pink shirt or tie is just fine!
I was amazed years ago I had a pick dress shirt and it wore well. I dont think I will ever have a pink tie )
I don't think I could pull off waering a pink shirt. I'm more of an earth tones guy.
There's a trend of hip-hop artists styling in rusted pink. If you choose to wear a pink, wear a button-up shirt with the collars down! Otherwise you'd look like a flamingo and I think they're endangered.
I don't really care to see men in pink.
Pink is an interesting color. When I was a red haired kid my mother bought me a pink suit. That may have been over the top there. These days "pink" is a "girl thing." So many people think that they can get women to buy something if they just make it pink. This is especially true for sports where most things come in either the team's colors or pink. But I see it in other places as well; the ladies golf shoes often have a streak of pink somewhere in it. The fact that pink is also associated with the cause of breast cancer which is under the popular misconception as being a women's only problem (while it is exceptionally rare it does happen in men also) also gives it a special aura compared to most other colors.
Of course no color is an island, and everything depends on what is with it. I have a pink tie that has black cross like dots over it. Pink as a shirt might look good with a black suit (so that it is the shirt that stands out as a point of color). I recently bought a bright non primary jacket, but it was turquoise. Then again as both a barbershopper and as a Knight of Columbus I have bright red jackets to wear, so it's not the "girl" nature of the color but the closeness to a primary color I have already worn too much that keeps me from going into the pink.
I'm straight but wear pink shirts... don't care what the society tells us what the norms are. Pink shirts are cool!
I think it all depends on weather they are comfortable wearing pink! I love all colors, but some just make me look terrible!
depends on the guy
Our former pastor used to wear a pink shirt and it looked good on him, he could just pull it off. Some men can wear it, others it just looks tacky.
When I was growing up it was a "No No" but today many guys are wearing pink. I must admit that my husband would never do it but many guys I know do.
I don't even like pink.
So, if my hubby started wearing it, I'd wonder if he'd turned to the other side. It's too girly, I think.
I know pink was big in the 80's and I had a few pink shirts.
as my son would say we wear blue so why not as long it aint a dress I have no beef about it...
Color has no gender. If there skin tone is complimentary and they favor the color, they should wear it. Can't imagine feeling a color would affect their masculinity, just seems ridiculous
Several of our local newscasters wear pink shirts and it looks great on them, but my hubby wouldn't be caught dead in one!!
