Less amusing, but still amusing in that they were threatened by what they thought was lipstick.

One thing I did think of in this whole situation was an old college friend who worked in a bakery that sold cupcakes. She would recommend a hot pink frosted buttercream cupcake to guys who asked her "What's good?" Most would either take it or politely decline. Some, however, would react like you handed them a live snake and get angry. I saw this a few times when I stopped by to say hi to her. And to be clear, it was a good cupcake and an honest recommendation. It was just pink. Apparently that was threatening to them, like red stained lips. Fun times.
