I looked this up for you….although, I’m sure you could have looked it up OR even knew the meaning already!

What do people aim for when they meditate, and how do they do it properly?

The answers reveal that "Is it pink?" is a controversial trend originating from social media, particularly TikTok. While some responses suggest benign interpretations, most indicate that the phrase has sexually explicit connotations, making it inappropriate for classroom discussion.

Feminists may often assign to the colour a certain powerful, socio-political stance as in being cool, or hip or androgynous (having the characteristics of both sexes).

In western nations, a few centuries ago, both men and women were comfortable enough in faintly pink costumes as a symbol of luxury and class and there wasn’t a particular appropriation of the colour as a ‘girly colour’. Only by the 1800s was there some sort of dichotomy of fashion whereby men had a tendency towards more darker and sober colours.

What movies and TV shows portray realistic beauty standards?

Thanks for A2A,

I remember that as a house officer, I once wore a pink shirt in the early ‘70s and the consultant surgeon gave me a bemused look. Call me chicken, but I didn’t repeat that dress ensemble. In various ways, pink became associated with even protest and awareness of LBGT and Pink triangles, once used by the Nazis to target homosexuals became a symbol of gay activism. However even in the fight against breast cancer, a pink ribbon was used as a symbol. I guess it’s symbolic of the way society tends to embrace different values and use colours to identify with it.

Seems to me that social media has created quite a lot of new attributions to the colour ‘pink’. And the way society evolves often changes over the years at various times perceiving this colour as a colour in transition – sometimes feminine, perhaps sophisticated, even erotic and maybe even kitsch (in poor taste).
