PINK..whose colour is it?

1st blog..highly confused what to start from..so this idea struck me when i was selecting the color scheme for the blog
Generally,girls are supposed to like pink..
a typical girlie kind of well..um..girl is supposed to live in a room that is painted a pale pink,with bed spreads in the same pleasing tones of pink,wardrobe filled with tonnes of clothes all in the shades of pink(no prizes for guessing that)..at least this is what is shown in movies..and of course,not to forget the colour hot pink..which is flaunted by vamps...
so the bottom line was that girls and only girls like pink,and wear pink..in other words,pink is a feminine shade..
a guy who wears pink is not macho....
but is that so?
and then,voila!!!!!(yeah..i know..wrong to start a sentence with and,but what the hell!!!)
one fine day,you saw your favourite heros sporting pink shirts and pink pants,among a zillion other accessories that were every imaginable shade of pink..okay..so maybe this is a bad dream..
but wait,..all at once,executives are wearing pink formal shirts to meetings..
a boy band calls itself pink floyd
even cartoons aren't free from pink..proof..the ever famous pink panther
so this is finally the advent of pink,..or should i say,the advent of metrosexuality??
while this battle continues as to whether pink is a masculine or feminine shade,in the early days,pink was the color used to symbolise homosexuality..makes sense as pink is a combination of neutral shades(white and red)..
so whose color is pink?
should only girls strut around in pink ensembles,or will the guys keep their stand and take ownership of this colour?
come to think of it,is pink just a colour at all anymore(THE most contoversial color at that..)..or has it slowly evolved to become an attitude..an attitude that everybody likes to wear...
P.S:pink is my fav. color,as you must have figured out from the font colour.
