Re: Hardcoded behaviour not going away anytime soon!
"Do women really prefer pink though?"
They have no choice, from birth they're programmed to like it, everything everywhere is pink, go into girl's section in toystores, pink, everything.
It's the same reason most guys shy away from pink, we too have been programmed, it's an inferior colour and would associate us with being girls.
Even if you recognize this fact and you try to rebel against it as a parent to a girl, it's insanely difficult to achieve.
