I recently started a new job and needed a number of new shirts (need to wear a tie now and I think all my other shirts have shrunk around the neck - not me getting fatter, oh no!).

For some reason, i am findng myself inexplicably drawn to pink shirts; some with stripes, some with checks, but basically all with a pink theme.

Should I be worried? Is this my mid-life crisis?

Welcome back Bilbo . Glad to hear you are up and running jobwise. I'm not a fan of pink, but have just "allowed" my wife to buy me two casual shirts that are pink and light purple, so anything goes, I guess.

if it is just this pink attraction ... I would not worry. If there are other, let's say inquietudes ... well, ... then ... maybe ... I would have a straight talk with your consenting adult, just for a start.

It's just your kinder, gentler side controlling your wardrobe choices - not to worry.

My wife turned most of my clothes pink-toned in the washing machine. I just learned to live with it.

Er... I must admit I'm kinda fond of guys wearing (light) pink shirts, sleeves rolled up.

Esp if they wear Bermuda shorts and sneakers

Seriously, I like men wearing light pink shirts. I really do

That they are secure in their masculinity and aren't worried that wearing such a feminine color will affect it.

I friend of mine had this as his profile pic. That first thing I noticed was that shirt. One of the things I love about it so much is the floral cuffs. I can't believe how good that looks on a guy.

Those are their sport sandals. The straps are fully adjustable. I thought it might be those and someone pulled the straps tight. I have read reviews where people say that Chacos are tight. I'm usually get shoes that have too loose straps, so I don't mind them being so snug. My leather ones are the tightest, but since leather stretches, it'll work out in my favor.

This might be my preferred shirt.
I got it at the Salvation Army Thrift Store on South Congress in Austin, TX for 4.99 dollares in 1999.
I think it gives me a very distinguished look.

Very very pretty! I want a pair!

About the pink shirts: men can wear it as long as it's a soft pink. I've seen some young guys walking around in fluo pink shirts, and that makes them look like a pimp. Which is what they want probably
