Colour Distinctions

'In the biological records of animal life it is apparent that the female responds to vivid colours.'

'Babies still being dressed in pink for a girl and blue for a boy. This tradition may have originated in ancient Egypt, where boys were seen as a gift from the heavens, and so became associated with blue, while girls were seen as being of the flesh and were, therefore, were invested with a more mortal skin colour. Also the Victorian class division of 'blue collar worker and white collar worker' is still common currency.'
