Screw you guys, I like blue
21 August 2007
Women really do prefer pink, researchers say:
Boys like blue, girls like pink and there isn’t much anybody can do about it, researchers said on Monday in one of the first studies to show scientifically that there are gender-based color preferences.
Researchers said these differences may have a basis in evolution in which females developed a preference for reddish colors associated with riper fruit and healthier faces.
…
Afterwards, Hurlbert and colleagues plotted the results along the color spectrum and found that while men prefer blue, women gravitate towards the pinker end of the blue spectrum.
I’m a fan of grey-blues myself. I’ve always preferred blue. I only don’t loathe pinks that are duskier, less fucking sweetie pie.

Hear, hear. Maybe it's because pink generally looks terrible on Asian skin. (But at least we can wear orange with confidence.)
