Colors aren’t inherently gendered, this is stupid. They are colors. You can use some amount of psychology in design with colors, but even that can change depending on the culture of the viewer. Such rigid lines of thought are what lead to stagnation in art and design. It’s frustrating. Enjoy whatever the hell you want to enjoy.

Fucking genderlocking colors, my ass-

That's what I was thinking too! Like "dang are they really applying gender differences to fucking color saturation?" Anyone can like whatever they want and there isn't an inherent need for justification!
