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.

needs to get out more
pink? no problem. when i was a suit, i had a couple of really nice pink dress shirts. love them against the right blue or grey suit, and of cours the perfect tie. no longer a suit, so i get to wear shorts year round. got no pink anymore.

I think men who are unfazed by pink are the 'manliest' of all. Just shows how secure they are about themselves. Confidence is sex-ay!
Katie Blue you are dead on !!!!!! :clap_1: great answer !!!!!!!

I see what you mean about the pink paddle. :scratch:... just kidding, I am still willing to trade him out for a yellow one.

The paddle is not gay but the life jacket is flaming. :funn:

Merman has a stuffed head now from all the compliments. I told him to take a cold shower if he's so hot. :floor:
The paddles are pretty good, color notwithstanding, but I have a confession to make. I'm the one who wants to do a swap with SJ because I'm the one who has to look at Merman as he paddles, and it bugs the crap out of me that he has a nice yellow boat and a nice matching life vest...and a pink paddle!!! It offends my sense of aesthetics. :roll: I want a hubbie who's color coordinated. :oops:

Well tough boogies on that. The man's going to have to flame because that's what I want.

No coins needed, Tootsie. SJ and I have worked a deal. He and my dear sweet husband are swapping paddles. I get a view that I like and SJ gets brand new paddles. It's a win/win situation.
Pink, I think, goes very well with the blue eyes that make all the ladies swoon. ;-)

I was secretly hoping that someone would one day purchase pink paddles so that I could convince them that the paddles didn't match their boat and lifejacket, thereby working out a switch... "and I would have gotten away with it, if it weren't for those medling kids!" (Scooby-Doo)
Hey, I just realized that the pink paddles will match my pink house, :floor:so I, too, will be all snazzied up with matching stuff.

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

Yesterday, I see a girl wearing short shorts with "pink" written across the butt. What is she trying to say?"Come to mama, big boy."
I think it's a sign or karma or Victoria's Secret. :floor:
