Over a decade ago I worked at an electrical contractor shop, and the big boss was so all-male his balls probably had balls of their own.
He would occasionally be wearing a pink polo shirt.
Pink is manly AF.

Little remembered fact - there was a time when the colour for newborn baby boys was pink, while blue was for girls. Pink was chosen because it was a more vibrant and outstanding colour compared to the more passive blue. Largely due to how pink is a shade of red.

"Mistress Roko..."

--- End quote ---

Hyper lucky.

--- Quote from: tomveil on 19 Aug 2019, 19:06 ---OK, I feel like a tool, because when Winslow chose a pink Deluxe Boy body, I just assumed that meant he was gay, because Pink On Men Must Mean Gay, and not just because, y'know, it's a nice color.

As it has been mentioned already I will help put to rest the misinformation regarding colour then and now.
If you peruse classical European painting you will notice something very peculiar compared to our modern marketing influenced world.

Red was Masculine
Pink was for boys aka, not yet men therefore red-light
This colour remained in fashion into the 50's when the fashion houses and marketing changed everything around so eveeryones wardrobe had to be updated on a regular basis.

Blue was for girls - this is why young males in aristocracy had curls and wore blue just like little girls - it was a survival issue since girls had no value back then and not targetted for kidnapping or assassination.

Also white was for death and funerals [why ghosts are depicted as white due to their funeral shrouds] and black was for formal attire for both genders.
This is where the formal Black Tuxedo and little black dress come from originally since it flatters the human form no matter the design.

That is until Victoria turned everything on it's head and the new mercantile class ran with it.
Then again Victoria and the rest from that time period did as much harm as good when it came to cultural appropriation and runaway mercantilism.

Strip is up!

I think May's problem is her delivery.  While she does make a good point that Winslow acknowledges there's nothing wrong with him doing charitable work with an ulterior motive.  As long as Winslow realizes that and doesn't get discouraged if Roko doesn't reciprocate he should go for it.   

Stoutfellow:
Interesting that May chooses to confide in the teen that she just broomed out of the store.
