Last year we had to endure thousands of pink shirts on thousands of Korean men - from the girly-boy types to the snorting neanderthals. Then the shirts seemed to go away over the winter. I hoped that they had been relegated to hell, never to return. But with spring, every Korean man has now decided that he looked great in pink last year, and out comes the ol' shirt. Shocked Every clown on TV is now wearing pink, as is every second fool on the street. Do they not know how fucking nauseous they look in pink?

No self-respecting man should wear pink. It's not just that it's a woman's colour. It's a little girl's colour. It rarely looks good even on women. On men, it's just dreadful. Esoecially when the pinkl shirt is accompanied by a pink off-the-shoulder cardigan and a pink tie. Shocked

Yeah, nauseating is probably the correct term.

But what if it is accompanied by pink shoes and matching bag?

Plain Pink = no problem
Pink Stripes = not too bad

Pink Flowers = BAD
Shiny Pink = BAD
Pink with other pastels mixed in = BAD
Pink with a gayish cardigan = BAD
Pink with shiny suits = BAD

You can guess which group SOME Korean men are foolish enough to wear.

but theres no denying korean men look nobelesse in their lovely pink shirts.
like a modern english prince,or a CEO of a global company or someone who lives in Riche-ville.

riche,but understated.

to wear pink,you show you are not afraid of anything.
you are no longer a slave or farmer.
you now import your food from australia.

they have a err, ahem,slight oversupply of food, nicholas.


do keep up.
and of course,that is why australian men do not generally wear pink shirts.

1.they export food.

2.it looks gay.

3. australian women would laugh at them.

4.they would get their head kicked in.

I think it's lame that genders have to be assigned colors. If your "manliness" depends on the pigmentation of your shirt, that's f*cking sad.
