Pink & Blue Reversed - Who Knew?

A comment on how arbitrary some of the things we take for granted in life really are - from The Ladies Home Journal in 1918:

"There has been a great diversity of opinion on the subject, but the general accepted rule is pink for the boy and blue for the girl. Pink, being a more decided and stronger color, is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is prettier for the girl."

Go figure. :)
