Can a man pull off a pink shirt?

[Westbrook36]

I have been discussing this recently with some friends of mine. It seems society is hellbent on telling us what is "gay" for a man to wear when, in reality, it's only a color, imo.

In all honesty, how far is pink away from red? Many guys wear red without shame.

I wore a pink shirt and pink tie with a three piece navy pinstripe suit to a wedding a few weeks ago and I don't remember having any urges to blow and of the guys that were there.

What say you?

[airborneskins]

Westbrook, Are you coming out?

J/K

Pink is the new hot color amongst some hip hop heads.

Seen it a lot of late. Yes, a man can pull off pink. Hell, even when Malibu's Most Wanted came out, the character wore a pink dominant outfit.

I believe before the turn of the century, pink was a boy's color.

[ntotoro]

I have one pink Nautica shirt, but it really depends on your skin tone. If you have a darker complection you can pull it off fine without causing too much mess. No one has ever made any derrogatory comments about me wearing pink, anyway.

[Spaceman Spiff]

Pink is pretty money. Dress shirts, ties, polo shirts in pink work well. I'm also a fan of yellow and light blue as well.

I don't, for some reason, think pink works on tshirts.

[TD_washingtonredskins]

It's referred to as "salmon"

[Prosperity]

I think you are gay

[halter91]

I have a pink shirt too and I'm far from well, you know. Now if you wear pink undies, your have some issues.

[Shotgun Styles]

No. Next question...

[herrmag]

I hate pink. I find it ridiculous that it is "in". 3 years ago, if people were asked "would you wear pink", 99% would say HELL NO. Suddenly, some fashion designer says it's cool for men to wear pink, and everyone's got a pink shirt now. Personally, I find trendy crap lame anyways.

[Baculus]

It probably depends on the color - if a man wears pink, it tends to be understated, or "salmon," as someone mentioned. I believe that hot pink would raise some eyebrows, but I see lots of pinkish ties and shirts worn by men. They tend to be more pastels then anything else. (Ok, I do some work with web design, so I have to know my pastels. :-P)

That being said, I don't care for pink, so I'll never wear it.

[KDawg]

I'll never... ever... ever... wear pink or purple... ever.

[rdsknbill]

"not that there's anything wrong with it"

It was cool to wear pink before three years ago. ;)

Really though, I've seen businessmen wearing pink shirts for a long time. It's always been popular, just recently though people have seen it in hip hop videos and stuff and it's had a rebirth....its always been popular.

[jrockster21]

I personally can't pull it off. My ex girlfriend found guys in pink shirts irresistable, so bought me three or four of them. I never thought I looked very good in them though. But whenever I go out to Ft. Lauderdale I see at least 40-50 guys with some sort of pink on their shirts. Of course Ft. Lauderdale is probably the trend capital of the nation.

Bro, if you're going to use 80's fashion to back up your argument, then you have more issues to deal with than just pink shirts!!

I love purple - it's a great color. One of my favorite shirts is a purple button down, and it goes well with anything.

That does not mean you'll ever catch me wearing any Ravens' colors. :-P

[E-Dog Night]

It all depends on (a) what you look like (b) where you live (c) where you go. If you are comfortable in your masculinity, you live in a cosmopolitan metropolis and you work/socialize in white collar places, then pink can easily be pulled off – in fact you just might be, dare I say, hip. Most colleges are also ok for pink. But if you are just a bit on the pretty side, you live in North Platte, Nebraska, work in construction and go to your local pool hall on Friday nights, well, I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that blue might be a better choice for your shirt color. Unless you enjoy catching flack all night long.

Of course, if anyone gives you a hard time about your pink oxford at the Double Down Saloon, just explain your views on homosexuality. I'm sure that will work out just great.

[TXREDSKINS44]

I don't think I could get myself to wear a pink shirt......well unless my wife wanted me too!!:D

My wife just bought me 2 pink Nautica dress shirts. I had never worn a pink shirt in my life.

I wore one last week and every woman that I saw at work complimented it. All the guys ragged on it.

Since I work in an industry that is 90% women, both shirts are now in my rotation.

[just skins baby]

I have a darker pink color t-shirt that I got from Old Navy that looks pretty good. I don't think I could wear anything with a light pink tint.

I think its a confidence thing; at least it was for my ex. She said a guy in a pink shirt had to be extremely confident, and that is sexy to a girl. Nowadays, since it is becoming trendy, I think it will lose some of its power. Guys are no longer wearing it to show their self-confidence, but to be trendy.

But hey, as long as it gets their attention, right? ;)

Can a man pull off a pink shirt?

I should hope so. As good as lovely ladies looked in them, they look even better OUT.

[Horseman]

Coincidence. I'm actually wearing a pink shirt and burgundy tie at work today.
The ocassional yellow shirt doesn't look bad either, and I am far, far from you know what. Infact sometimes I wonder if I am too obsessed with women.
But maybe I'm just in my prime... hehe:cool:

[Beaudry]

I have one pink button down dress shirt. Women compliment me on the shirt quite often. Unfortunately, guys keep grabbing at my junk.

Pink can work; the younger girls like pink shirts too!

E-Dog pegged it pretty well.

I would add that whereas a pink shirt is OK, depending on circumstances, I would stay the hell away from pink pants, pink tie, pink shoes, etc.

[Kilmer17]

Can a guy pull off a pink shirt?

Absolutely. If his wife or girlfriend is wearing it.


Can a guy wear one? Sure. If he's really a chick.

[Monte51Coleman]

There are WAY too many people who worry WAY too much about what other people think. Grow a set and do what you want.

The only thing that a response like Kilmer's makes me want to do is buy one so that I'm NOT like him.

[riggins44]

Pink shirts and/or ties are fashionable for men. Personally, wouldn't wear one. I'm too old fashioned and conservative.

Took me years to wear an Izod shirt, because all the preps
wore them.

Westbrook, my wife has been after me to get a pink shirt and like others have said, most women like it on men. My wife felt it was
a miracle to get me to wear a dark blue or burgandy dress shirt...since 90% of my dress shirts are white.

Listen, live on your wild side! Get a burgandy shirt and wear with
a gold tie! Now that is style! :cool:

[Loki]

This shouldn't even be a discussion. Do you remember looking back at your high school pictures asking yourself what was I thinking when I wore that? Dudes are not supposed to wear pink, if you do you will look back at this time and ask yourself what was I thinking.....

As I understand it, pink is close to brown. Faeries hate blue but love pink. They would not kidnap a baby wrapped in blue but like ones in pink (or earth colors), so in pagan times, you used to wrap up your boys in blue so they wouldn't get kidnapped and your girls in pink so they would.

True it may be a societal barrier that has dictated my sense of fashion, but I still don't feel differently. Pink, right or wrong, is symbolic of femininity and softness. A symbol that I choose not to display..... :2cents:

I'm gonna tell your jarhead buddies you asked the question:laugh:

Back in the day I used to rock a pink button down with some khaki's, pink socks and penny loafers. Today I would tone it down to just the shirt. I'm married but I get all kinds of compliments from the ladies when I rock pastels and other interesting colors. It's how you accessorize and "coordinate".

Men should not use the words "accessorize" and "coordinate".

Well, isn't it society telling you it's fashionable to wear pink? I mean seriously; if it wasn't cool to be wearing pink, would you ever do it? Did you have the guts to do it 2 years ago when NOBODY was wearing it? If you enjoy the color so much, why didn't you do it before? Because you were embarassed to. BBBBAAAHHHHHH.....Move along with the herd.

[scskin]

Hey Sarge, educated men can use any words they choose. Here's some more , Fuschia, Lilac, and Salmon. If you have to advertise manhood then it ain't!!!

guys can wear pink, its fine. if anything, in most cases it shows the guy is comfortable with his sexuality.

I wear a pink shirt with a suit occasionaly and my son wears one quite often.

Why let homosexuals take a color choice away from the rest of us?

Besides I like the excuse to fight;)

Wear a pink izod with the collar flipped up and you'll get all the ladies!

There is nothing masculine about pink......

But seriously I dont really care. Only reason I kid is because I use to know this guy who wore pink who I didn't care for to much. My girlfriend and I still refer to him as Pinky...

[Park City Skins]

Yep. Been known to own a few in my day. Have one right now that though not truely pink, ( it's just a little darker shade), it's close enough to be considered pink I think. At least for the sake of debate here. And it was picked out by a woman who I assure you has good taste in clothes and knows what she likes in, ( or in this case on), men. I've never had a problem with wearing pink or something close to it, and coincidentally none of the women I've been out with did either. That's a good thing. :)

[hu-bison-skinsfan]

Guys look GREAT in pink when the style is crisp and masculine which is to say a nice button-down, polo or oxford. Once you put on a pink t-shirt, wife-beater, or some soft fabric or (god-forbid) fur, you've gone too far.

[Henry]

Wow. We have a lot of metrosexuals on this board. :)

Pink is traditionally a little girl's color. Maybe these days it's trendy for adult males to wear it too, but I don't know from trendy. I don't wear pink. But then again I'm just a crotchety old man. :)

I'm trying to invision how that would work together, but I think it's good.

F*ck it man, take chances. I bought a couple pink shirts a couple years ago, but now that seems to be the "cool" color for yuppie guys to wear, so I've retired my pink, button down shirt.

However...Do you really want to look like everyone else? You wanna run up in somewhere wearing a black/blue/grey/brown suit with a white shirt and some predictable tie? No way...If you wanna wear pink and it works for you, go for it!

I definately think it works better on people of a darker skin tone...but some of us crackers can pull it off too...

lmao that's more than i wanted or needed to know! :laugh:

[mjah]

A guy can pull off a pink shirt, if he's lifting it over the head of the girl who's wearing it. But for white guys at least, wearing pink has always been a bad idea. Sorry, fellow whities -- Pink is a girl color.

I love this idea that white guys wearing pink before it was "popular" somehow were less stupid. It looks dumb. It always looked dumb. It looked like you were raiding your little sister's closet then, and it continues to look like you're raiding it now.

As for not showing up in a "standard" black/blue suit... Yeah. Pink is clearly the answer to that conundrum. Surely you won't look dumber in that matching pink button-down and pink/blue tie than you would if you just got a good looking suit in any other color than black or blue.

Guys with dark skin can make pink work, because the skin tone and shirt color actually complement each other. But it doesn't work for white guys. And you guys who religiously tan, naturally or artificially, or wear makeup or whatever the hell you do to look like Oompa-Loompas, aren't exempt. Wearing pink with your artificially brown-orange skin makes you look like a bridal bouquet. Congratulations, big guy.

I work in Boston's financial district and see this mistake constantly. It has been going on for at least seven years up here in full force, and it looked no less dumb in 1999 than it looks now. White guys trying to look "different" yet businesslike by rocking the pink shirt. What a disaster. They look like tools. Their outfits scream, "I'm an entry-level analyst, not yet important enough to actually meet clients and therefore allowed to wear guy-pink in the portfolio management office. Additional oversubscribed conformity pending..."

If you're going to dress differently in an attempt to stand out while sitting at your standard-issue desk located inside a bland cube nested shoulder-to-shoulder inside a larger bland cube inside a giant bland box with windows that you can't see out of because you sit in the back, you could at least pick something that looks good on you. Pink isn't it.

Then you see an older guy with darker skin who obviously knows that pink actually works for him and has for decades. And the shirt looks good. It genuinely looks good.

But wear whatever you want -- the world needs entertainment. I think the man-purse may be making a comeback too, if you want to give that a try. You know, to be different.

[manleyistheman]

I'm surprised by the number of neanderthals that believe a man's maculinity is directly related to the color of his shirt. I suppose if a women isn't in the kitchen barefoot and pregnant, she isn't a real woman either.

Oh, and if your color choices are driven by what's trendy, either by following the trend or specifically going against it, are you not still a slave to it? I say wear whatever makes you feel comfortable regardless of what anyone else thinks or is doing. Think for yourself!

i was opening some xmas presents i got....(yea i open some of my presents MUCH later especially when i think they are clothes)....and a relative gave me a pink shirt and some dark jeans. i'm almost offended to think that they thought i was conceited enough to rock a pink shirt.

[dreamingwolf]

bah damn it wrong thread

[PleaseBlitz]

I have a pink straight collar button down. It goes nicely with one of my blue suits. I tend to judge my fashion sense by compliments i get from women. Judging by that, I pull it off just fine.

But if you have to ask other people if you can pull it off.......you cant.

[Thiebear]

I can with a button down. cuz i don't care..

[refuze]

I would never wear pink. It's just too fruity for my taste.

[ashburnskinsfan]

Pink shirts are the height of sophistication :)

[dreamingwolf]

If you guys like to keep your options open its not a big deal to me :silly:

[mbraun2]

You can wear pink and be strait PROVIDED:

1. You dont wear earings
2. You dont have a tribal arm tatoo
3. you dont have frosted/dyed hair
4. No pouka shell/hemp necklaces
5. You dont wear a hat cocked to the side/backwards

In all honesty it dosent matter if you are wearing a pink shirt or not. Just don't do any of the abover.

[Chopper Dave]

It's doable. You just have to have enough personal style to pull it off. That, or be a fratboy. In which case you look like a douchebag anyway, so why the hell not wear a pink shirt?

[Oldskool]

depends on your style and on your skin tone..

Ive seen plenty of brothers that can pull it off. the occasional white guy can as well.

If your skin really falls anywhere in the melatonin spectrum between these two, good luck.

I have an olive-esque complexion and it looks horrid on me.

Of course he can. In fact, I'd say the fellas at the bath house will be urging him to do so.
