Mainly for the girls to answer... do you think it's nice when guys wear pink or horrible?

I've asked a few friends, and so far I've gotten split responses.

Yes. :P

Why? :P

Some say pink looks hot on guys, some say it looks stupid. What's your opinion? :P

I say yes. Men should be allowed to wear pink and still feel masculine. (If they want to, that is.)

I think some guys can pull pink off and some can't. It is also a matter of what shade of pink the color is and if it is accompanied by some art. Also, it should only be on the shirt; because pink pants or shorts would just look tacky. The type and color of pants also matter.

And then there's the factor of perception. Everyone will perceive the guy's looks differently.

Wearing pink can just signal that someone is secure in his masculinity (if he want to be).

I agree with Tage in that it depends on the shade. Try to wear a light shade with black or grey or white (if informal).

Supposed to be wearing a pink shirt with a suit... it's just the last time I wore pink to stir a girl up, she ripped the top off of me. Other girls think it's cool though. So it's kinda like mixed signals. XD

LOL I guess that depends on why she ripped the shirt off you?  ;)

Well there's ripping a shirt off and then there's ripping a shirt off. It was a bad ripping off... :P

Haha. Well, I guess you just have to take it on a case-by-case basis then. Either way, if you want to wear pink, I don't think you should care what others think. :)

I would personally never wear a pink shirt/pant/tie/socks/anything. :P

See, one girl said she'd basically throw herself at me if I was wearing a pink shirt, the other said she'd kill me. So I do care, because it might get me somewhere. :P

If they want to, although I don't really like it personally. (But then I don't like the color pink in general :P)

So you like purple? Or a completely different colour? :P

Blue's my super, all-time favorite color. One look at my room and that's obvious XD

Yeah... I don't even really like pink on girls either.  I think it's the colour itself that just irks me. XD

If they're infants, or under 12 years old, then that's fine.  But otherwise... :X :P

I neither like pink, nor do I think it looks good on guys, especially me...I mean cmon, I've got long hair and a red beard, I should NEVER be wearing pink.

Well, if you're trying to get somewhere, you would probably have to adapt to most of that person's preferences anyway. I guess it would still be interesting to find out what the majority of women on here think though. ;D

You're wearing pink right now?  Quick, change into something else! :o ;P  Nah, if people choose to wear it, that's their decision.  I'm just saying personally, it makes me wanna hurl. :)

I just hope he posts a picture so we ca all see.  XD hehe

It depends on the person but pink can be ok in small doses.

I actually like wearing the color pink...especially a dark pink. But it's nice to know that I make you want to hurl ::)

LOL!  You don't, but your clothes do. :P  Actually, dark pink might not be as bad as light pink <3 <3 <3 <3... :X

:P

*is glad she didn't wear her light pink shirt today*

Psh. Any guy who jumps on the "wearing pink means I'm manly!" train irritates me immensely. It's mostly the preppy guys who do it too (at least at my school,) so I'm not a fan. :P

Yeah... I mean, I don't really know what colour is considered "manly", but I'm pretty sure pink is not one of 'em. :P

I'll let you know if I survive. XD

Take that back!

I say no. I have a friend who wears a pink suit with matching pants - and it looks weird. That's fine for him, since he is a little weird, but on the whole, I say that pink clothes don't look good on guys.

Lollercaust! That's great. XD

you want such a costume too for haloween?  :P

YES!

That's too funny! XD

LOL! XD

lol ya I saw Darth Hello Kitty(?), Hello Darth Kittyl(?), Darth Kitty?

Whatever his name is last year at Atlanta at the Dragon Con.  :thumbsup:

Darth-in-Pink - "Luke, I am your father."

Luke - "Bwhahahahahahaha...!" *sniff* "No no, really, who are you, again?"

((Darth in Pink *does* make an impression, but not the one I bet he wants to make. Doesnt pink and Darth Vader clash anyway?  :P ))

I'm solidly against pink mens close, atleast as far as I'm concerned.

*cough* clothes *cough* :angel:

I don't think that guys should wear pink all the time, but as a dress shirt, and if they have dark hair, it doesn't look awful.

Also, stereotyping someone for the color of their shirt is just silly. They can wear whatever they want, and I think that people that overanalyze it to death are being too serious over something that doesn't really matter.
