Pink

Pink is a pale tint of red or rose, named after the pink flower. The term was first used as a color name in the late 17th century. In the 21st century, pink is commonly seen as a symbol of femininity, although it frequently reflected masculinity before the second half of the 20th century. Scholars have connected its feminization with the emergence of Barbie in 1959.
