So I preordered to Forza Horizzon 4 Ultimate Edition. I didn’t even realize there would be a car download and a tee shirt download with the pre-order.
I’m pleased with the car download, but…a PINK tee shirt??? Really, folks…I haven’t seen it yet, but it better be something special for me to wear a pink tee.
He’s probably a dude and doesn’t like pink, which is often a little girls favorite color… it’s understandable, I’ve got a dude character in game and get all kinds of female apparel, guess they really wanted to cater…
You should tread incredibly careful from this point forward unless it’s to rapidly retreat in the opposite direction. In fact, that’s precisely what you should do before you post something that cannot so easily be overlooked.
No. Colors don’t have genders. Gender stereotyping colors is dumb and archaic. I like pink. I’m a guy. There ARE guys who like pink. I mean, look at Aerosmith. They wrote an entire song about it. If you don’t like pink, there are other colors to wear. But gender stereotyping and ridiculing someone because they like a color is dumb. “Like, I’m sorry, but I think the 1950s called and they want their sexism back” dumb. It’s nearly 2019 people. Let’s progress a little bit.
Back then, guys wore pink. Guys wore pink up until the late 80’s at least. And by “guys”, I mean it was common. I still wear pink.
But for the OP, I get what they are saying. Motor sports are prodominantly male sports. I love that women are getting into them more and more. However, for a racing game to give away a free shirt that is pink, that kinda makes it pointless for the majority of people that will be playing. Plenty of women don’t like pink, same as men. It should be a black shirt, or a special suit, or something like that.
Rather than going out on a legde where I might offend on gender stuff, I’ll go out on another ledge and probably offend hipsters. I’ve had a bunch of wheelspins wasted on some terrible, terrible apparel. I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing 90% of the stuff available. A variety of styles would have been more appreciated over here.
I would have just like to have had a choice.
The description isn’t truly accurate to the item though. It’s a pink logo on a black tee.
I don’t have a problem with pink shirts, except it woyldn’t be a color I would wear. I prefer darker shirts and earth tones (other than a slight partiality to florescent green, for some reason).
Got a few Super Wheelspins and initially excited to see 3 chances to win along with Legendary cars and large bundles of cash spinning by - and what do I get? A t shirt, a horn and some shoes. Yeah… that’s not really what I was hoping for.
I’ve had a good mix of things from my super wheelspins including my favourite car to drive so far - the Caterham R500 FE. Has a drift bonus… just as well because that’s all it wants to do!
