Is color gender specific or an indicator of 1's sexual orientation???


O.k. lets look at that color thang for what it really is......A COLOR PEOPLE!!!! Perhaps I should start at jump street so you all can feel my perspective. Last year I was in the market for a digital camera. So me being the research King that I am, I found the one that was great for me, however, it came in several flavors, but the cheapest color was fuchsia. I thought nothing of it and brought the camera on home. Needless to say the camera worked fine and allowed me to take many of the great pics that I placed on face book and my blog!
The problem is that others who see me with the camera seem to think that its gay for a straight man to have a pink camera. Hummm, I wonder what gay men think about that? I remember a former boss really grilled me over why I choose pink. I guess she never heard of breast cancer awareness-huh! To be honest I don't mind wearing or buying pink anything as long as it fits or I like it- is a brother wrong for liking all the colors in the world?
Well fast forward toward today: It was time for me to upgrade my cell phone with Sprint and they was running a special for a buy one get one free black berry phone. The colors available were black or purple ( purple = royalty as well as my favorite color) I got one of each. So I am sitting at the license branch today plating up my newest hoop tie and the ghetto rep asked me (as she is popping her gum and rubbing her big ear rings with the long nails with the Obama family on them-even the dog) what up that purple phone. I told her it works great and I like the color and she just smile and tried to get her co-workers attention.
Oh well I guess I might be gay because I don't have a black everything. Heck I been black all my life, just once or twice I thought I could add some color to my life. Now I understand that real men wear "BLAND".....
