Pink does have a particular set of meanings for people, and gold is ostentatious. That's really all that's being claimed. It's like the assertion that Hello Kitty can tell us something about Japanese society: hard to disagree with.
- Steko 11y agoMay not be making claims but the author surely abuses confusion of an ostentatious material and the color named after it, although Apple has done the same by introducing a watch made of the material and a phone of the color on the same day. Author also gets the history wrong -- rose gold peaked in the early 19th century not the 20th -- in order to buttress the final point about revolutions.
