I have strong opinions on gendering colours and think this is an outrage perpetrated by out-of-touch old fogies.
I also think the way the headlines on subjects like these are written is itself subtly otherising. “Oh it’s them feminists kicking up a fuss, ho ho ho those wacky feminists, next they’ll be burning bras in the street” whereas actually it only takes a minimal awareness of gender issues to understand why gendering colours, activities etc. is inimical to an equal society.
But hey, I’m a millennial so my opinion can safely be ignored by my elders and betters
