Really? In my generation, purple is no where near feminine anymore. Pink clothing is not considered feminine on men either. Even my dad wears purple and pink and he's in his 50s.
Got a tip for us?

Btw, I grew up in New England and it's one of the most preppy regions in the country. Pink and various pastels on men everywhere. You must be in a VERY small town.
Umm vineyard vines? Pretty much pink shorts shirts and everything for guys. Jack wills too.
Last I checked, the UK wasn't part of America
Merely pointing out how socially regressive the USA is.

Parts of the USA, yes. It's quite a diverse place, socially...a bit too diverse.
Haha, well we also don't wear pants that stop at our ankles, or wear shorts that some would consider too short for femalesMerely pointing out how socially regressive the USA is.
I'm the least girly girl ever but I just cancelled my gold in favour of rose gold. Might be sorry though, haven't had confirmation yet and it was 4 hours ago!
I wore a pink shirt to work today and it's pretty common place in my part of Europe. Nobody laughs, assumes you are gay, although I wouldn't care if they did. I don't think a pink shirt or a rose gold watch or phone is going to make a man look any less manly.
It's possible an insecurity issue for those that mock rather than those who choose to buy it.
If you guys are going to keep bringing this up, you need to know your geography.
Geography? I know where New England is but had no idea it was so far behind the rest of the western world. Surely a guy can wear a pink shirt and have a gold iPhone there without the 1970's judging him?
until I saw the watch in person.... there was a moment of "OH WOW!" but i love that my gray sports watch goes with everything and i can wear ANY color band i want! can you imagine the rose gold with a red band! HAHA!
i LOVE rose gold! i even ordered hubby a GORGEOUS rose gold with blue band invicta that i planned to wear occasionally until i got my apple watch.... unfortunately the band didn't go small enough for my wrist!
i knew i had to see the watch in person cuz i was REALLY stressing since i kept seeing so many different hues of the phone in photos... and the pink was TO DIE FOR! but then one would show up as peach.... UGH!
well as soon as i laid eyes on the watch i was like "it's not pink" so they let me hold the try on model and it's peach/beige NOT PINK.... so i knew right then and there i was OK with ordering space gray.
NOW... if it comes out and is NOT the same aluminum as the watch.... and it's more pink: i'll cry!

I love it, Samsung have had pink phones for so long now its about time! Also I love how Apple chose to use kawaii asian girls doing selfies in the videos
Yes, as I said America and you chime in that what I'm saying is incorrect because you don't see that in Europe.Geography? I know where New England is but had no idea it was so far behind the rest of the western world. Surely a guy can wear a pink shirt and have a gold iPhone there without the 1970's judging him?
I saw the watch, too. In the lighting at my store it was really pink looking. At this point it's anyone's guess what the watch will look like under regular lighting. The lighting at my Apple Store is strange. Silver and gold and space gray are not easy to tell apart in their lighting!
That is not hot pink. It's more of a salmon. The Moto X in raspberry is hot pink.
So...what's your point? Are you saying that all men should dress the same?
Nope, just pointing out that you will be in the minority with a pink phone. If that's fine with you, then that's great, but to those on the fence that could be a factor.
You honestly think that mature adults think they need to be just like everybody else?
Yeah there's no difference in case size. I hear tell you can totally just keep using the case for the 6 on the 6s in the event that you are happy with the case you have now.
Which case did you get? I just ordered the liquid crystal case and a screen protector from them. I haven't used the brand before but Amazon gave them great reviews.
That is the exact one I bought. Rubbish it's soooo thin it's like worth 10p and I paid £6.99. Returned.
