WDYT..do real men wear pink??

kmf143 · May 2010

My DH doesn't own any..I never thought about getting him anything in pink but I know people who think it is sexy as hell. Devil

Does your SO wear pink?

If not, do you find it attractive & would like him to?

operaapril · May 2010

Nope. I don't think that men should wear pink. There are so many other "manly" colors out there. Just my oppinion.

Squishycheeks · May 2010

DH won't wear pink. I do think it's attractive on some men, but some times I think it looks silly.

reannegummer · May 2010

My DH doesn't wear pink but I know lots of guys that do and some of them are pretty hot and can totally pull it off.

BitterOldHag · May 2010

I don't wear pink.

JaiKriBaby · May 2010

Mine does and I love it. He has several light pink work shirts and polos. He also loves to shop and often helps me pick out clothes because I'm clueless in that department.

mechanicsgirl · May 2010

My DH doesn't. He despises the color pink. I like it on men, but I like other colors on him, too. doesn't matter to me either way.

katie_cj · May 2010

Jake's godfather had a pink shirt during his baptism. I loved it.

I do think men can wear pink. My FI probably wouldn't though, but he looks better in reds I find.

brownmouse · May 2010

Meh, pink is just another color. Like orange or green. I don't think pink has(or should have) any gender specific things about it.

That said, DH doesn't wear pink, and I wouldn't tell him to. But if he wanted to, I wouldn't stop him.

Mrs.Kent · May 2010

My DH would never wear pink, but I see nothing wrong with a mens shirt that has a little pink in it. We have a guy friend who wears pink all the time, but it works on him - he owns it!

StrawberryBlondeMomma · May 2010

i love pink. but pale pink. i'm preppy though.

before he met me, DH hated pink. now, he has 1 pink shirt that he wears.

Why does wearing pink make a man high maintenance? It's a color...

And no, my husband doesnt wear pink but it would look horrible on him, otherwise he probably wouldnt be opposed to it.

Mrs.Christie · May 2010

My DH does. He has a dress shirt with pink stripes and another with purple ones. DH is quite manly and works in an agressive sales environment. Both of those colors look attractive on him.

I dunno, maybe it wouldn't be a great idea for a wimpy looking guy to wear pink, but really I don't think it is a big deal. As long as DH doesn't start wearing makeup or a skirt to match, I really don't care.

AutumnBride929 · May 2010

YES! He wears pink and purple. They look really good on him. He wears suits for work so those colors in the shirts and ties look really good under a black suit (especially purple... the pink looks nice under his gray suit). Real men obviously wear pink.

ivs112 · May 2010

He's worn pink and I think it is kinda sexy. He has a pale pink buttown down shirt that he wore with a tie and a vest and nice jeans. He looked great.

It looks good when it's worn correctly.

MegDC · May 2010

Yes he does and he looks great in it! I picked out a few pink shirts for him when we were dating and now he will even buy pink himself. A pink shirt with a black suit or a pink polo in the summer with khaki or sear sucker is very nice

This.

H wears pink and looks great in it. I fully support men wearing pink and don't even think twice about it.

kmf143 · May 2010

ETA: I do agree that sometimes it does look nice. Just not sure for my DH.

Maybe Pink boxers! Stick out tongue

gettin' hitched · May 2010

I think it can be sexy and would like SO to wear it. He wouldn't mind wearing it but has yet to find one he likes. I think he wants it to be more subtle and maybe have pink pinstripes. Maybe I will get him a shirt for father's day!

Maybe we should all do this! LOL.

Totally agree!

Chrysallys · May 2010

Yes, because I think a man who is comfortable in his sexuality and self won't care about a color or how people will perceive him for wearing it. That said, I like guys in pink and am on the hunt for a pink polo for DS. DH has no problems wearing pink.

rebus82 · May 2010

DH doesn't wear it because he thinks it's an ugly color; he couldn't care less that it's "girly". His favorite color is purple and he wears that without shame (though he does prefer darker shades). He accidentally dyed half a load of laundry pink a couple months ago, a few work shirts included, and had they not been terribly splotchy he probably would have kept wearing them despite their feminine hue.

He carried my pink backpack around Disney World (twice) and never once was uncomfortable. He is not the type to worry about what others think of him or his sexuality.

whatyoudotome · May 2010

Mine won't, but I don't see the big deal. It's a color. Who cares?

RNOHIO · May 2010

Yes, DH wears a lot of pink and look really good in it!!! They are usually a classy button down shirt and not something cheesy though.

ITA. DH was wearing a light purple shirt on our first date and it made him seem confident, which was really attractive to me. Check out Ralph Lauren's spring and summer lines for pink polos. They usually have great shades of pink and you can catch them on great sales.

BengalBelle · May 2010

B wears pink. It looks good on him. And he's hardly what I'd call "high maintenance".

Example:

All of this! I tried to get DH a pink polo shirt and he wouldn't go for it.

megs68 · May 2010

He sure does and looks awesome in it! It's definitely a good color on him. I got a pink polo for DS to wear next summer and I can't wait to get a picture of DH and DS together in their pink polos.

MrsErinnElizabeth · May 2010

He has several pink and purple dress shirts and they are hot!

AfterAll · May 2010

DH is a cop and wears pink/purple dress shirts to work. As long as it doesn't have ruffles, and cannot be deemed a "blouse" it is not girly IMO.

It was a joke, hence the wink

But you have to admit, it tends to be a color "metrosexuals"/preppies wear... though it is becoming more popular for men to wear. My BIL and FIL wear it all the time. Then again, my FIL also goes to tanning beds, so that's where my joke came from.

jfarmer27 · May 2010

Yep! It's not a staple color, but he will wear it. He even wore a pink tie in our wedding. I prefer pink over purple on guys...but that's my opinion.
