I don’t like pink.

Yes, that’s right;
I don’t like the color pink.

I hate pink.

It
Clashes with my sense
of empowerment.

I don’t like pink,
especially when it comes to
the feminine.

It says ‘weak’, ‘lesser sex’,
‘gays and lesbians belong
in concentration camps’.

And that the wearer
can be abused as
and
Short changed.

Why people wear it,
I don’t know.

Then again,
I don’t like blue either,
but that’s another story….
