Is it okay to use a pink towel to dry my son off after he takes a bath?

Or should I just let him air dry until I do a load of laundry?

Answer:
He'll be fine.lol
Well how old is your son? It shouldn't matter if he's younger...
Use the pink towel! You afraid its going to turn him gay or something?
By all means..pink blue purple with yellow polka dots,,, towel dry your kids and dress them immediately. Don't let them run naked too long. Depending on age, you should be incorporating a sense of modesty in them and drying with a towel and dressing them right after a bath is the first way we teach our kids to dress appropriately.
Like, why would this matter????...
Oh my gosh, yes! I wouldn't even think about it. Your son has no idea what color the towel is and as long as it is soft and fluffy he will be just as happy as if it were "boy blue". He will look very sweet with his pink skin with the pink towel and no harm will come from it.
You can't be serious... a child using a pink towel (whether they are male or female) is not going to adversely effect them in anyway at any age. Its a towel. Use it before your kid freezes to death air drying.
you need to dry ur son off and the color of towels dose not matter!
just use the towel. Kids don't care what the color is. Just get him dry.
There is no problem to use a pink towel. Don't teach your son stupid prejudice and most of all don't let him air dry and get pneumonia
It really doesn't make a difference... It's better than letting him air-dry. Plus, if someone is confident with their masculinity it wouldn't matter what color towel they use.
It shouldn't matter as long as you dry him off it's just a towel. I have kinds of towels i use for my daughter that are different colors.
he won't turn gay it's ok
if this is a serious question of course. If you are afraid to use a pink towel then wait to do laundry before watching your son. He can not get gay from using a pink towel.
If you let your kid air dry, it can give him a rash from the water left in the crevices of the skin (like behind your knees and in front of your elbows). It's pretty gross.

A pink towel won't hurt the kid, as long as it is clean. Besides, there is a good chance he might be color blind and won't know anyway.
pink is a new fashion for guys but even so it has to be better than giving him a cold
If hes over 40 then he really should be doing this himself, by you worrying what colour the towel is will make your son think that a pink towel isn't a good thing to get dried with, its perfectly ok and don't be putting any ideas in his head that it isn't.
lol i dont think he will turn gay from a towel. just dont get him any pink clothes.
It doesn't make him a girl to use a pink towel. He just needs to dry his azz makes no difference. Come on!
why wouldnt it be? If you are still drying him off after his bath hes not old enough to care..besides, it takes a true man to use pink!
I don't see anything wrong with that, a towel is a towel, I doubt very seriously if he notices the color of the towel.
WOW...of all the things you COULD be concerned about, I'm afraid you simply aren't getting enough worry for your buck! My husband uses my pink towels ALL the time, big whoop! Dry your kid!
GOOD GOD, MAN - NO!!

This is a VERY serious situation we have here, and I truly can't believe that you are trusting the Yahoo community for an emergency such as this! I can only hope that you get this answer in time. Pink towels - under NO circumstances, should be used for boys.

EVER!

If you must - dry him off with your Grandma's underwear (as long as it's NOT pink). That would probably be as big as a towel anyways - I've met your grandma.
I can't believe that this is really a serious question! Are you afraid it is not a manly color or that the dye will come off on your son? It doesn't matter what color towel he uses, just don't wash that pink towel with his white underwear!
its ok

In Summer let him air dry
Well, Pink is just a color...if it isn't brought to his attention by an adult...he will not be none the wiser.
Use the pink towel ..I never knew towels had anything to be with what gender you are. We have blue towels at my home and me and my daughter use them every day
What? Why not?
Just use the towel, shouldn't be pinkphobic.
what a dumb question! who cares
you can't be serious! how old are you, ten? too young to be a parent with questions like that
Yes it's okay. No one else is going to see it so it doesn't matter.
