Have you ever noticed that most little girls favorite color is pink? Is that because girls really like pink or is it because they have been brainwashed by us dressing them in pink since the day they were born?
"The preferred color to dress young boys in was pink! Blue wasreserved for girls as it was considered the paler, more dainty of thetwo colors, and pink was thought to be the stronger (akin to red). Itwas not until WWII that the colors were reversed and pink was used forgirls and blue for boys..." - Quote from Dress Maker Magazine

During World War II the Nazis used a color- & shape-coded system to keep track of their prisoners. Jews were given a yellow star of David to wear to identify them. Homosexuals were given a pink inverted triangle, which is also half a star of David.
When my daughter was a baby I dressed her in all the colors. I used to show her the clothes I would be putting on her that day and eventually started letting her pick out her own clothes. I would just hold up two different things and whichever one she grabbed, that is the one I would buy. She would always choose the yellow or lime green first. Orange was her second option. Now she is not too much into the color but more interested in the picture.
