But very definitely not give into the wishes of their sons who want pink. Parents apply pressure too.

- knowitall 13y agoTrue :-) More people seem to be concerned about girls liking pink than about boys not liking pink, though.
- rmc 13y agoBoys will physically assault boys who like pink. It'd say that counts as "people concerned that boys don't display their liking of pink".
- knowitall 13y agoHm, is that a general rule? My son is not yet in school, so I don't know what it is like these days. Also "like pink" is different from owning the occasional pink thing. I suppose a boy who would dress exclusively in pink would stand out, and maybe the bullies would try to cut him down. Still, I suspect it is not a large scale problem - obviously I don't condone the actions of such bullies, I mean there are probably not that many boys who would prefer to dress all in pink. (I didn't research that, though - in any case everybody should be allowed to like/wear whatever they want).
