While I personally don't mind the color pink, I have to say that the hot
pink globe logo makes me cry a little inside.

the info on WikiWednesday, part of what is done is:
"Sladre om de andre brugere"
Bwahahahahaha, if that's not reinforcing stereotypes, what is? :)))))

More seriously: I guess pink is given the connotations of cutesy,
little-girl-donesn't-know-a-thing and such.

The discussion on Facebook has had its ups and downs. One particular
down is
a lot of name-calling amongst the women in the discussion. It appears,
however, that some people are allergic to pink, and that some people
find
the text condescending and patronising.
The kerfluffle has caused quite a lot of views on the portal - on
ordinary
days, it has ~20-30 hits; yesterday 5159. *****
Oh, and at WikiWednesday the day after tomorrow, we'll probably talk
about
pinkness and stuff.******

Ole
