in gaelic-speaking areas (the republic of ireland, parts of scotland and limited areas of eastern canadia), public bathrooms are labeled M for mrá "women" and F for fír "men".
in another startling brain-twist (for those of you who didn't already know this), in good old days, boys wore pink and girls wore blue - the opposite of the "natural" colours the are assigned these days. ladies home journal, june 1918 issue.
There has been a great diversity of opinion on the subject, but the generally accepted rule is pink for the boy and blue for the girl. The reason is that pink being a more decided and stronger color is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is pertier for the girl.so pay attention!
