rosemary1991 Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 Tomorrow I find out the sex of my baby before work. I'm gonna wear blue if it's a girl and pink if it's a boy and ask them to guess when they see me and be like NOPE! GENDER STEREOTYPES ARE FAKE!!!!
Luigi Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 According to a very old woman I used to know, the blue-pink distinction didn't become popular until after World War I. It was based on Gainsborough's painting Blue Boy and Lawrence's painting Pinkie. Prior to that, she said, the color for all babies was white. But I have no idea why those two paintings became the trend-setters after WWI.

Ash Wednesday Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 Well, I'm a woman, but I grew up with 3 older brothers. My toys were like.... Barbie and Chewbacca flying on Transformers. My Little Pony fought evil with Voltron. I turned out fine (?) Never mind, don't answer that.
