PINK SMACKDOWN ROUND 2 - this will be a shorter polling time because ill be out of internet for a while as of tomorrow and id hate to leave everyone waiting!
Now, let's talk about Baker-Miller pink, otherwise known as the Drunk-Tank Pink - it was a colour designed to reduce aggression in male prisoners (thus the title drunk-tank pink) because it was proposed that the feminine connotation meant it was calming.
However, the initial test inmates only experienced short-term calm, and returned to feeling irate soon after. The paint effecting positive change in inmates was never replicated outside initial testing, and likely has little to no real effect.
However, this created both an association with pink as a negative, and it created a potentially even more damaging environment mentally for those inmates. When cells are all painted the exact same colour, that can be maddening - no stimuli, no diversity, just flat pink.
its time we as a gay nation decide once and for all what the best shade of pink is... its time for the ULTRA MEGA PINK SMACKDOWN 2k22 (sponsored by the global femmes initiative)
