Interesting! I associate knowledge and scholarly pursuit/achievement as feminine via the lighter neutrals/yellows, which are representing the Lightweaver. It's fun to see the headcanon of people inspired by the Eleven.

But yeah, even regardless of headcanon, this whole strict gender/color correlation (MEN CAN'T BE PINK!!!) is so silly and frankly arbitrary. I work in a color-related profession and many pinks are regarded as masculine because they're warmer colors, which is just proof that there are competing assumptions about gender and color, and that anyone throwing a fit over a single exclusivity is dumb. If they don't like pink, that's one thing. If they don't like pink on just the males, that's silly.

sa here

Also ENGLIGHTENMENT is associated with yellows, in honor of the Lightweaver. Obviously an important association!
