ABSOLUTLY!!! As my boyfriend always says "it takes a strong man to wear a pink shirt" I think if you have the confidence, you can pull off just about any outfit!!!
Dont listen to anyone who says otherwise!!!

I think it depends on your skin tone and the particular shade of pink, more than any other factor. Some guys look great in certain shades, and some guys look really red-faced, depending on their complexion.
As to whether it's masculine or feminine -- it's a color, not a gender. Anything else is just something we've assigned to it and not what it really is. If you look good in pink and you like the color, wear it!

Pink is feminine and I don't know what part of the country you're in but, around here, any guy wearing pink is risking getting his @ss kicked by the redneck homophobes.
A "perfectly straight guy" can wear a tutu for all I care but there's folks not as "tolerant" as me and my friends.

Absolutely. The height of Italian fashion at one point included a very beautiful pale or light pink as a base colour for a dress shirt, and with the right necktie, it is absolutely magnificent and understated, as only the Italians can bring it off. - Chris.

Pink used to be a boy color because it is close to red, which represented bravery, or something.
So yes, it is for boys AND girls.
But there will be some people who look at you funny if you're a boy wearing pink. But who cares what they think? They won't like my clothes either.

Pink is not a truly masculine colour unless you name is Barbie !

Yeah of course! There's nothing wrong with that. Wear what you want to wear.
A nice shade of pink though - not a horrible one or THEN you'll get funny looks.
Some people can pull it off really well. :)

Pink can be masculine as long it's not the only color in your wardrobe - then I would be a little frightened.

It would seem so. In fact I was shopping in a Mall this morning and there were loads of 'ard looking geezers in pink - with their wifes and girlfriends in case you're wondering ;).

Haha, I remember this one dorky guy at home wearing that "real men wear pink" t-shirt and he got his @ss kicked. Of course, he was on the tennis team...
