This is interesting. I have a friend who, after having her first daughter, refused to buy anything pink for her. However, once the child went to childcare, she went directly to the pink things. Its her favourite colour. It is very difficult to buy things that are not pink for little girls. Another friend had her daughter's first birthday and I was appalled to see that every little outfit that was a present to her was pink - except from me. Society makes it so hard for parents not to wrap their daughters in pink and every father has his little princesses. Do we all want our kids to grow up as little clones?
