FYI, I don't work for this blog. I own it.

And for the columnist or even news writer for my blog, I never want for only
the facts to be reported. That would be republishing press releases. I
always look for personal opinions.

And if that means that some of them think color “blue” sounds gay, or color
“pink” or “purple” seems girly, sorry, but I will accept that.

I'm not here to fight gender, equal opportunity or any other progressive
battles you want to fight.

Lettin a girl in front of me through the door, buying my wife or girlfriend
flowers on March 8th or Mothers day, letting my wife raise my kid at home
and paying for that for the first year, if she feels like it, instead of
forcing her to go back to her job as soon as baby is out of the womb…
Sorry, but that's what we (alpha) males just do.

No one ever said anything about degrading women, and if I ever hear or
notice that on this blog, the writer will be terminated at once. As will be
anyone doing a real hate speech. FYI. the main writer for this blog, is a
girl.

However, if anyone has a knee jerk reaction about someone else's opinion
about any particular color, sorry, but inferiority complex seems to be with
him…

BTW, I just asked my wife (pretty successful entrepreneur by herself), her
girl friend and my daughter. They all agreed – yep we would love purple and
pink. It's “girly”. And we love things to be girly – like pink purses with
Swarovsky crystals, “Hello Kitty” cellphones, or “Betty Boo” handbags.

Btw., Nokia with L'Amour collection, Samsung with La'Fleur and Diva lines,
Chanel and Dior phone makers seems to agree that some phones can be more
“girly” then others…
