    What real men wear

    Walking into a restaurant with my family today I saw a bunch of teenagers hanging around outside.
    One of the lads wore a T shirt with the words "real men wear pink".

    I went up to him, told him I like his shirt, but if he wanted to know what real men wore he should check out the rear of my vehicle.

    He immediately went round to check it out...a sticker on the rear reads "real men wear kilts". All his mates wanted to kow what the guy in the kilt said to him...who knows, maybe future kilt wearers?

    Later I saw the group smoking, none could have been older than 16. I felt like telling him that 'real men don't smoke'....but I didn't :-(

    I have a nephew you has a similar pink t-shirt. I kid him everytime I see him in it. Personally I think a t-shirt manufacturer had mistakenly ordered too many pink shirts and couldn't return them.
    Real men wear whatever they want.

    Pondering....

    Real men wear pink tartan kilts??

    Real men order up white UK workman's and die it pink? Wonder if that's been done?

    Black kilt hose, pink kilt, black shirt....retro '50's kilting...:-P

    Boggles the mind with possibilities....

    The vestments for last Sunday were pink, and the preist was commenting on them at the end of mass. He said one of the kids from the childrens choir at the Saturday mass told him he has a pink shirt that says "Real Men Wear Pink (please ask Mom to not mix the whites with the colors)"

    It really is to bad that cilts and the colour pink is considered femine. We shouldn't have stereotypes for everything, who cares! We're people and colours shouldn't matter, no matter who wears it, even if it is pink.
