The rejection of the color pink in the United States is a socially learned behavior. In other countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia men wear fuchsia and other shades of pink. I have a male friend who is not gay and whose favorite color is pink. When he was little he snuck into a number of cars, goofing around and taking small items. A police officer came up to him on the sidewalk and asked if he knew or saw anyone who had been entering cars. He said yes, he saw a man in a pink car speed away after breaking into it! The skeptical officer, not able to envision a thief in a Mary Kay car loaded him up in the police car and took him home to his mother!
