The Colour Pink

Throughout the times, alongside with the facts that 'humans are the smartest animals on the planet' and the fact that 'humans ARE animals'... wait a sec, not that generalised...

Well, basically, the colour pink is often associated with girls... red, sometimes too... and the colour blue with boys. Why is this so? I mean, they're all just colours. Tones, shades, whatever you want to call it; it's all the same, really.

If you DO need proof that girls are 'more inclined' towards pink, think about this:

-Bathrooms are sometimes pink/red or blue depending on gender. (Door signs sometimes, the most common type is the colour of the walls in the bathrooms.)

-The stereotypical girl, 'Barbie', is pink (By this, I mean that everything about her is pink - the clothes; the makeup; heck, even the packaging is pink. Have you ever seen the toy stores with shelves full of 'Barbie' dolls? It looks like a pink paint bomb went off in that aisle! PINK EVERYWHERE!!!)

Come to think of it, 'Barbie' dolls also promote 'fashions', along with the more recent 'Bratz' dolls, etc. Very effective too. I mean, how many little girls knew about makeup, fashion, even about s**!

It's actually kinda depressing, the way children are maturing so fast.

Anyway... what else to put in this list... let me see, let me see...

-Girls are always said to like pink... if any boys like the colour pink, then they are automatically 'sissies', so to speak. (This is kinda unfair, seeing as some boys DO, in fact, like the colour pink. I should know, I've met some.)

Do you notice that 'tomboy-ish' girls happen to like dark colours, like black, dark blue, etc? Weird.

Erm... can't think of anymore for the time being. So, to end this: What do you think about this? Is pink really a girl's colour?
