Do Real Men Wear Pink?

Here's the deal. Merman and I bought kayaks last night. His is yellow. Mine is red. We got matching Personal Flotation Devices (they don't call 'em life vests anymore ;-) ) with color-coordinated trim. Mine is red. We got them on sale.

We also got paddles. Also on sale. Actually, on clearance. What landed them on the clearance rack in the height of the kayaking season? Wellll....they're pink. Pink with little white cloudy swirls. I think they're very elegant. Merman has another opinion. He balked at buying them but one can't overlook a $50 savings per paddle. (Money talks.)

So the question is, does Merman spray paint his paddles? Or do real men wear pink?

:idontno:

His fate rests in your hands.

All this talk about the pink paddles and I am getting a little excited about my new pink paddle.

So a while back, I posted a photo of a girl wearing a bikini with "juicy" written across the butt. Yesterday, I see a girl wearing short shorts with "pink" written across the butt. What is she trying to say?

GTTBD and I saw a lady at a rest stop in Columbus on our way home from SoWal in Jan. that had on sweat pants that said PNK. Or at least that's what we though until she made a minor adjustment. The we realized it said PINK. We wondered the same thing. "What is she trying to say?"

My guess is that it is similar to the 13 year old wearing a shirt that read, "My Daddy says that I'm a naughty girl"

whom I recently saw walking down the beach with her family.

Code for, "look at me, look at me!" I guess. :idontno:

I question the judgement of allowing a 13 year old wearing the shirt you saw. :shock: Go figure.

my daddy would have beat our a$$e$ if we wore a shirt like that. with clothes what the are today for teens, we wouldn't have been allowed out of the house.
