one grrrl's opinion

In my experience, things designed "for women" tend to be of shoddy quality and marketed with a condescending tone; sadly, most of these things were pink, spangly, or otherwise screamed "this is not a serious (tool | firearm | piece of clothing)" and my reflex has been to run far and fast from anything pastel, pink, or "for women". If we've come such a long way, baby, that pink is just another color for any gender user, that's fabbo, but I'll have to see it to believe it.
