what do we think about guys wearing pink shirts

Not a big deal.

I wouldn't.

what do we think about guys wearing pink shirts
I don't like them, but not because they are sending any sort of message, just because I look like a refugee from a leper colony when I wear pink. :p

ah shit I accidently voted the bottom one... I meant to vote for the top one

M. Burns "He's wearing a pink shirt! He's ana anarchist!"
:D
I love pink shirts

I see nothing wrong with it. The only reason I wouyld see anything wrong with it is because socoity has sterotyped the color pink as a feminine color and feminine men as homosexual. Pink is the same as any other color, why would you judge somone of the color of the their shirt?

I wear to church or a night out with the wife... Gray pinstripe (or black) single breast suit coat and slacks, pink shirt and black tie, belt and shoes. Mix the shirt color and tie color for different occasions. Blue for sober occasions, red for weddings and festive occasions, black for funerals etc., pink for looking good for the ladies.

OK? Yes. Advisable? No.

No, because pink shirts are obscenely ugly.

Why would we care what you think? :)

I have several pink shirts that are great to wear, especially with a blazer and some chinos.

Enough people at my college make it look good for it to be ok, but definatly no for overweight people. Like me.

that point came across a lot on the Rangers forums

I own two pink shirts. Anyone have anything to say? :)

Granted overweight people (not necessarily you...so don't think this is a personal flame) don't look good in most things...so...

so sensitive... :D

My dad got a bunch pink shirts once because they were really cheap. One of them was a really hot pink. More than once I refused to go somewhere with him until he went and changed his shirt.

Some guys look ok in pink shirts, and as long as they can pull it off, I don't mind so much, but most guys look terrible. If in doubt, avoid pink. Real men wear purple.

SAme here, except the ONLY reason I would ever wear one is if the girlfriend or wife asked me to. Ever.

so sensitive... :D

That wasn't my goal, lol, honesty was. Not only do you look bad when you're overweight, but you're terribly unhealthy. So many problems are brought on by being fat...and it's becoming an epidemic. I'm real big on this issue, but i'm not going to hijack this topic, so I'll spare you all.

What about the poll option "Yes, they are gay" or how about "Thinking pink is gay is stupid, I just don't like the color"

I say the most excellent pink shirt the other day. It had written on the back the text "Keep laughing, It's your girlfriend's shirt."

Hot pink is not good.

What is needed is a light pink, idealy, the color of brooks brothers pink oxford shirts.

In fact, the only pink shirt I could ever see myself wearing is a brooks oxford, and all my pink shirts are brooks oxfords.

I cant see myself wearing a purple shirt outdoors.

"Thinking pink is gay is stupid, I just don't like the color"

Yeah...that about sums up my feelings on it.

I wouldn't wear the color cause it's obnoxious...

I'm sure they are real big on the issue aswell :D

I wore a purple shirt one time and someone told me it was a gay color, I said I had no idea and that I must then be gay.

I voted "I wear them", because I have one pink t-shirt. You won't see me wearing it outside the house, though. :p

Off topic:I love your style!

But a guy (or a girl) can wear any color he/she like, as long as it is comfortable for them. But still I know some places where you don't want to be to "alternative". Unless you are a Bruce Lee-skilled fighter...

"Granted overweight people (not necessarily you...so don't think this is a personal flame) don't look good in most things...so..."

I can only think of father chrsitmas/santa clause costumes, and possibly big flowery shirts...

Anyway, pink is sooo lasthst season, ooooh! It's juthst purthfectly arwful! I think I'm going to faint...ooooh....

I like purple. I have two purple shirts. One is a solid, deep purple, and the other is a white shirt with purple vertical stripes. Purple can work if you know how to use it.

I think it's fine. As long as their not pink-posers, the guys that were it just to be cool and fit in, their losers.

And if someone says it's wrong,than that's like saying woman shouldn't vote, it's sexist.

what do we think about guys wearing pink shirts
Well, I think they're a bit sensitive about being made fun of.

In Florida last month two of my drunken friends commented on a redneck-looking gentleman's pink shirt and he and his two pals came out to the parking lot talking shit. "Fuck all of y'all" I believe was the phrase he used. Then they did the most un-redneck thing I could imagine. While I was walking over towards their truck to discuss their rudeness they jumped in and hurried away.

Why is there no option for us girls on the poll? *sniff*

For what it's worth, I like pink shirts on men.

Personally, I would never wear pink, but it doesn't bother me if another guy does.

Hah, don't be crazy, everyone knows that there's no girls on the internet.

Don't worry, we've all been there.

Don't worry, we've all been there.

Yeah, but are you 50 and balding rapidly?

I don't even think most girls should wear pink shirts, but some of them pull it off. I personally don't think that pink looks good on the vast majority of people, but that doesn't stop them from wearing it. It brings out the wrong skin undertones.

no, does this mean that I will one day be there again?

No. :D

oh.... sorry.... do you want a shoulder to cry on?

Will it be clad in a pink shirt?

No. :D

What a relief and yet, I'm a bit dissapointed as well. :confused:

anything you want

Oooooohhh, tempting.






I had no idea you had a thing for 50-year-old bald guys.

Didn't I just read elsewhere that you didn't like bald?

I live upstairs.... :D

Guys should never where pink shirts. In fact, girls should never where pink shirts. Or anything else pink for that matter. Pink is the colour of EVIL.

Heh, seriously though, some guys look fine in pink. If someone feels like wearing pink, they can where pink. Though I'd still rather they wear not-pink. Damn pink...

I live upstairs.... :D
:eek:

:eek:
yeah... that might have been lowering the tone a bit

Whatever. It's just a color, not one I'm fond of, but I'm not fond of orange shirts either. Neither looks good on me.

yeah... that might have been lowering the tone a bit
On bit of a thread-tone-lowering spree tonight, are we?

Ah, whatever, as long as I can get that shoulder. Pink shirted...or not. ;)

Oh, now he goes all Dickensian on me. A bit late, buster.;)

Also, you can keep the cap, I just really want that shoulder. Could you wrap it up nicely and send it to me?

I don't mind pink shirts, but I don't wear them.

I'm just about the right amount of gay to begin with. Pinkyness would unbalance that.

do you want a little bow aswell madame?

at my school, some ignorant freshman who thinks he is mesmorizing/in control/worth imitating, declared today to be pink sweater day (we have uniforms;note-catholic school sucks)

a few things wrong with this:

1. who do you think you are
2. who the hell owns a pink sweater
3. pink does not look good unless you are flaunting it in a nongay way


after his announcment yesterday, i declared today:
Beat the Sh*t out of fat jackass day

i love hating freshmen

this guy sounds like some buzz... then again he goes to a catholic school so I'd have to knock fuck out him

yeah, some other one tried to taunt sophmores at a school spirit thing, and was totally destroyed on is sophmore-prevalent busride home.

i forgot to mention the pink sweater kid does not walk.
he waddles.
really

I have a pastel pink shirt, and it's actually one of my favorites. It's big, it's breathable, and the color looks nice on a sunny day.

I can pull off any shirt color and still get looks and strange behavior from guys --- which is funny, because I, myself, am a guy, and messing with their heads is really funny.

Maybe he just hopes the pink sweater will distract from his waddling?

how the fuck do you expect me to know that... I'm Glaswegian

do you want a little bow aswell madame?

Well, nothing too frilly or hideous, if you please. Remember, I want to cry on it, not over it.

Some guys pull it off, those with more of a west coast look. I saw more of them in Chicago than I do down here in Texas.

My boyfriend has a light pink polo shirt that I absolutely love, so I'm all for it. Hot pink, on the other hand--nobody looks good in hot pink. Or at least, a very select few.

The "Real Guys Wear Pink" shirts sort of make me smile, though. And I've seen the "Don't laugh, this is your girlfriend's shirt" one too.

Oh, yes, I kind of took that as a given. My love for pink on men pretty much extends only to light pink. (And why is there only one word in English for such different colors?)

not asking much are you?

My boyfriend.
here you are leading me on ffor an hour and you have a boyfriend... I'm hurt, really hurt :rolleyes:

I seem to get more gay admirers than straight ones as it is, I don't think I could wear a pink shirt and get away with it. I mean, I've got shirts with pink on them, but none where pink is even close to the majority colour.

Some blokes manage light pink things fine, though.

Yeah. Light pink, or faded pink works...just not PINK pink. One of my friends wears pink sometimes. It looks fine on him. Whatever. To each his own.

Personally, I'd rather not wear pink.

here you are leading me on ffor an hour and you have a boyfriend... I'm hurt, really hurt :rolleyes:

What - you've been offering your shoulder to others, too? Now I am hurt!

Pink shirts rock!

Eww, pink. Hell yes there is something wrong with it, pink is awful. Except pink flavoured doughnuts...mmm...

Although i'd wear a pink shirt any day over a lime green or yellow one.

Aw, shit, you're on to me. *swigs JD from the bottle and scratches himself where it feels best*

Have you been watching and learning from me? :eek:

I have a lilac shirt. It goes well with my lilac tie and posh black blazer.

No but some guys pull it off

Pink is a feminine colour.

Eww, pink. Hell yes there is something wrong with it, pink is awful. Except pink flavoured doughnuts...mmm...

What the hell? How can anything be flavored pink?

Anyways, in my opinion, there are a select few men who look good in hot pink, and most guys can pull off wearing a pink shirt, but there are a few other colors that, unlike pink, must be outlawed:

Orange: It doesn't go with any other color, so it makes layering impossible, not even black with orange, because that just looks too Halloween. Although, wearing an orange shirt with a white blazer and/or tie might work if you have the guts/looks to pull it off (why does that color combo. remind me of Jane Fonda in Monster In-Law?)

Almond: There is no one, and I mean NO ONE, who looks good in almond: it washes out the skin of any white-or-fair-skinned boy, and looks ridiculous on anyone of African origin.

Sorry about being off-topic there, I don't mean to take up space, and I certainly don't want to change the subject of this thread, but I jsut wanted to say that.
