I'm late on reading and commenting past this post so forgive me if this has already been stated; opinion.

I think you/said-guy needs to check about themselve first and foremost of what they like, what their comforable with, and what their comfortable/happy in choosing their choices and disregard what others think. You cannot change their opinions, only show them another opinion and hope they may agree or respect it. It's all about you - without needing to be disrespectful about others. You do you ... let them be them!

When all else fails ... co-ordinate and have fun with it:
Suit ... red tie and hankerchief
street ... red Kobe XI's and T and cap or Jordan 6's and the same.
Bonus if you're a bright headed ginger, spike the hair if you can.
red ferrari gloves if you're driving in any above scenario.
Thunderstorm date ... red topped umbrella,
you get the idea!

Do you .... but if you feel it's not up to fashion par ... do it in your own style ... this way you're always comfortable :D
 
Just remember: Red was one of the most used colors for Kings back in the day (next to gold and blue).

Fun fact: The Product Red iPhone is produced in China, which ironically, is also a very popular color in China which brings fortune and good luck based on their beliefs. So I imagine the Product Red iPhone was fairly popular in China when it released.

According to color psychology:

"The color red is a warm and positive color associated with our most physical needs and our will to survive. It exudes a strong and powerful masculine energy.
Red is energizing. It excites the emotions and motivates us to take action.
It signifies a pioneering spirit and leadership qualities, promoting ambition and determination.
It is also strong-willed and can give confidence to those who are shy or lacking in will power.
Being the color of physical movement, the color red awakens our physical life force.
It is the color of sexuality and can stimulate deeper and more intimate passions in us, such as love and sex on the positive side or revenge and anger on the negative."
 
red iPhone is dope. Just hated it was a mid cycle color addition. I only get the phones when they release and wouldnt buy another from the same generation unless i had to. Would love a crimson red back with black front face iPhone 8.
 
Is this thread for real :eek: buy and use what YOU want to do, if that's a red iPhone buy a red iPhone, if that's a rose gold iPhone or iPad buy and use it! there are no girls and boys colours, stop worrying about what other people think and do what you want, life is lot happier that way!!

I tend to get the black screened ones (black, Space Grey) not because they are manly but because I like the illusion of less bezel. But honestly I am starting to open up to the idea just for variety sake. Get whatever floats your boat, if you want Red or "Bros Gold" go for it and don't worry about what other people think. You do you.
 
I love the red phone except for the white face. That’s was makes it girly. If they come out with the 8 in red with a black face I’m all over it. That said if the 8 rumors are true the entire face should be a black screen.

Dude if a girl bases her interest off of what color phone you have, save yourself the trouble and ditch her and run as far as you can in the other direction. What else is she going to judge you on? Is your car the wrong color? Are you wearing the wrong color shirt?

How about find someone who had an interest in you and accepts you for who you are? Don't let things like what color phone you have bother you. Besides, if you're out on a date with a girl why the hell do you have your phone out anyways?

If you're worried about whether you're phone looks manly enough, just slap some duct tape on it and cover it with grease and dirt. Problem solved.

Or do what I did - slap a saddle brown leather case on it and carry that sucker around for six months.
