Dear Chilakak,
I am a 22-year old student studying in one of the college in Klang Valley. Recently I got myself a pink color shirt on my birthday last week. I wore it to class and getting bashed for being gay. Should men wear pink and is pink associated with being sissy and weak?

Dear Pinky Lad,
Why bothered with what people saying about you? Be confident and rest assure that the color is a color. Yes, we tend to associate pink color with the feminism. This indirectly leads to the generalization of being weak and sissy.
However, this is no longer in the picture in this modern days. Everyone is entitled to wear pink. In fact, most men that are confident with themselves wear pink. It is cool to be with pink. Even the deadly animal like panther is in pink.
In the recent years, menswear has been heavily influenced by women’s fashion. From eyeliner to Marc Jacobs’s man skirts, one word – PINK.
Note the quote “REAL MAN WEARS PINK”. Even we manage to caught some celebrities in pink. For example, one of the hottest man on earth Mr. Brad Pitt also wearing pink. Nonetheless, the choice of color is important. You don’t want to end up like this guy here =D
