Dear Editor:
Now I can't speak for all guys, and I think it has nothing to do with sexuality per se, nor to sexual preference, and it certainly has nothing to do with environmental or social conditioning, but I have never liked the colour pink (except on the golf course, for some undefined reason).
Can anyone explain to me why, when pink is generally considered a favourite of girls, and the favoured colour at the gay pride parades worldwide, that it is used as a colour to represent an anti-bullying theme? Is it because it has nothing to do with bullying in the wider concept, but everything to do with bullying of those perceived as being "gay"?
Now I don't really care either way, but I think it somewhat ingenuous of the schools, teachers and school board to try to hoist their particular preferences on us.
Also, I find it odd that the artist known as Lady Gaga would be used as an example of probity to our daughters (not to mention our sons). By the way, who pays for all the T-shirts and production costs? Would some investigative reporter at the NOW be curious enough to give us a financial breakdown on all this nonsense?
Larry Bennett, Burnaby
