The ‘pink Vs Blue’ Gender Myth by demix007(m): 2:25pm On Nov 19, 2014 |
Is there truth to the idea that men prefer blue and women like pink? It’s easy to spot the girls’ section of a children’s clothes shop because most of it is pink. I know a lot of parents who insist that they would like their daughters to wear something different, but pink seems to hold an irresistible allure for them. But is that really true? Is it inevitable that girls are born to grow up to prefer pink? But there is one way at least in which pink can be useful for both women and men. Back in 2002 researchers in Switzerland who were keen to increase the response rate to surveys, found that printing questionnaires on coloured paper made no difference, unless the paper was pink, in which case 12% more people filled it in. Colours, it seems, influence our behaviour much more than we realise. And most guys have also been studied to avoid putting on pink but see blue or red as a more masculine colour.... So what's ur take when colour is involved? |
