Well, I find color to be interesting. Healthcare background here - so just hear me out for a minute. Nurses...white uniforms...studies long, long ago...patients describe horribly intense pain as "searing, burning white" pain...nurses now wear colored scrubs. Rarely in hospitals do you see white uniforms.

OK...black...strong, dominating, forceful, take charge, aggressive, leader, power, mature, whorish in a classy sort of way...all of those things. Sometimes evokes a certain amount of fear...think of Hell's Angels in their black leather. Shiny black limousine denotes a certain amount of power and control. With men, and particularly the sexually open men we find on this board, I tend to believe these characteristics of the color black come into play in their choices.

Someone mentioned a conditioned response in terms of girlie magazines and such...maybe...but I've also seen many photos in such magazines in which the females wore pastels. Again, to denote certain images the publishers wanted to convey - innocence, etc.

HERE is a quick and fun color test.

My thoughts...EBF

- and personally, I prefer the "jewel" tones. So what does that make me?
