Real men wear pink?

it is always fun to mess with peoples idea of normal and to keep them guessing. Never take yourself, or anyone else too seriously. If you can't laugh at yourself you may need to lighten up a little.

I didn't mean that pink gear was gay. I meant that this thread is stupid. This whole debate over whether pink dive gear is manly or not, is stupid. Why don't y'all start discussing if diving on Nitrox improves your libido.

If you want to wear pink dive gear, go ahead. But we'll all laugh at you and you'll look like a dork.

Sounds like one of those "Deliverance" people...maybe we should take that "Dawg" literally, eh? I think someone else said it best, "when you number of dives catches up with your number of posts..." Guess the "lower double-digit IQ" comment cut a little too close to the (Dawg) bone...lol....

Tom, you stud u... LOL! You got to dance with one of the gals from Pink Lady? That is hilarious...

remember which one?

I had no idea who they were. My friend, The Large One, who set this whole thing up after we wrapped up the diving for the day, wasn't so good on the introductions. It was loud in the lounge, and I might have had a few libations since I kinda partied hearty in those days. I just got tired of dancing bent over like a pretzel and plopping what's-her-name-san on my shoes didn't help much, so I just yanked her up in the air.
She sure didn't weigh much, plus I was huge from bodybuilding then - I remember being very careful not to break her, but her mom was a lot heavier.

I really think, men needs to rethink the pink thing. I went on my first date with my wife wearing a pink shirt. Well, to be honest, it was a little violet tinted, but most people called it pink.

I think more women are turned off by the macho, Clint Eastwood type. After you win them over with pink, then you can show them your gun and knife collection (I've got over 30 weapons).....

It's just a color. Big deal. Hell, I'm colorblind. I can't tell the difference between beige, pink, gray, and pale orange, or navy blue, black, or violet, or red and orange. If someone has pink gear, it means they use gear that happens to be pink. Personally, I'm a big fan of black... (er... or is my gear actually violet???)

I used to use pink mesh tank covers ... but when I signed up for Fundies they made me take 'em off ...

Now I just have "the hat" ...

... Bob (Grateful Diver)

Shoulda had a coke alert on that one!
HHhhhaarrrr!

Oh, yeah, on the subject of pink... I will neither reject no select a piece of scuba gear because it is pink. If it fits and works I am color blind.
