Good Girls Don’t Have to Wear Pink

Pinkalicious

It is sad when girls tell other girls that they should like pink, they should like other things that say, girl, they should play nice with baby dolls and Barbies…

Those girls are horrible people in pink and when they grow up they tell other people that girls should do the same. Good girls should always know there are other things out there too…
