Utter BS. 3 days ago LeBron James was wearing a pink shirt. Is he girly. Floyd Mayweather wore pink boxing trunks in a match last year. Is he girly?

There's one thing I've learned. Don't listen to anyone here who says xxx is girly. Sheesh, these people said Silver is girly before, now it's awesome. These people said Gold is girly before now it's awesome.
No doubt in my mind this is going to be the same for Rose Gold. If you like it, get it. These people will get Rose Gold eventually too.

“Pink or blue? Which is intended for boys and which for girls? This question comes from one of our readers this month, and the discussion may be of interest to others. There has been a great diversity of opinion on this subject, but the generally accepted rule is pink for the boy and blue for the girl. The reason is that pink, being a more decided and stronger color, is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is prettier for the girl.” –Earnshaw’s Infants’ Department (a trade publication), 1918

no - by recent history I didn't mean 3 days ago...
Although I don't consider Lebron James or Money - "girly" many would disagree
btw - I have no problem with men having a pink phone

I love G shocks and that color would be awesome do you have a picture of the watch or at least what does it look like style wise?
Nice! Do you happen to have a wrist shot of it by chance?I have a lot of watches, but none of them get compliments the way this one does.
I don't. Sorry. My camera's not that great, anyway. I think it's a color that looks better with certain colors of skin. Being Filipino, I've got fairly brown skin, so I like the way it looks.
It's also a nicer color than the yellow gold G-Shock, which I think looks a bit cheap.
Yeah I went in to the store today, and the Rose Gold Apple Watch Sport is definitely not as pink as photos are playing it out to be. Just like how in photos the Apple Watch looks huge but in reality its not
yep! that's a great representation! was at apple this evening and it's definitely NOT pinkie pink.... most men will be fine with this rose gold!
it's not that pink in real life.. the picture in post 111 above is more like the in real life picture....
Rose gold, if you want to make sure the crowd knows that you have THE iphone 6s. Do not underestimate one's vanity. Otherwise, why else update perfectly good iphone every year or even every 2 years?
As for me, I will need to see the color in person. But since it's not hot pink (not because it's girl's color, but I don't like bright neon color like lime, hot pink, etc), if I am fine with the color, I don't give a damn whether some random stranger thinks I have a girl phone. I buy it. I am not that crazy about any of the four colors being offered to begin with. Anyway the way I see it, being unmistakably recognized of having iphone 6s by the folks > possibly being laughed at behind your back for having a pink iphone by some of the folks.
And if you want to resell it around this time next year to cover around 40-50% cost of iphone 7 (if you go that route, that is), you will need to buy a cover anyway, which mostly covers up the thing.

I went to the Apple Store and saw the rose gold. It definitely looks pinkish. If it looked more copper I didn't want it. I'm a girl so I wanted it to look pinkish. I don't think it looked manly on my husband. Consider more of the rose gold will be showing on the phone than the watch.
My wife tried on the rose gold watch today and we both agreed it was way too pink. She was pretty disappointed with the color and decided not to go for it. Maybe it was the lighting, but if iPhone is the same color (safe assumption) I think lot of guys may end up returning it. Good luck!
I'm a guy & I like pink! If I can wear Pink polos, shirts & tees, I can definitely have a phone that is somewhat pink in color & only less so. But that's just me, others may vary.
